ABOUT
Hub New Music and Christopher Cerrone collaborate on their second commission project, a new 20-minute electroacoustic piece premiering in spring 2025. The work is inspired by the composer’s travels abroad, and incorporates the sounds of different crosswalks from Edinburgh and Reykjavík. The piece also incorporates the sounds of crosswalks in Hub and Cerrone’s respective homes of Detroit and Jersey City. When hearing these seemingly mundane sounds, the composer was struck by their beauty and rhythmic intricacies. Cerrone also writes that the piece is both music and a form of advocacy, as these sounds are often unnoticed by sighted people crossing the street.
