Physics for Listeners was a concert series produced by Homeroom on October 19th and 20th, 2010 at the Viaduct theater in Chicago. The goal of the concert was to bring composers and musicians from different disciplines and traditions into a musical dialogue. With the help of Paul Giallorenzo and Seth Boustead, we were able to draw from the city’s vital jazz/improvised and contemporary music communities to find composers who approached the project from a variety of angles, using a variety of techniques. We are very pleased to have a program that we think reflects, in part, the depth and range of creative music being composed and performed in Chicago.
