Inuksuit: Special FREE Event

Caramoor throws open its gates and invites you to discover John Luther Adams’ Inuksuit, an epic outdoor piece performed by more than 60 percussionists and other instrumentalists, directed by Doug Perkins. Inuksuit calls for the audience to wander outside among musicians playing an incredible array of instruments including conch shells, sirens, gongs, bells, drums, cymbals, and glockenspiels, dispersed throughout the landscape. In addition to exploring Caramoor’s alluring gardens and grounds, take the opportunity to hear more about our sound art exhibition in a panel discussion at 1:00pm with the artists, moderated by curator Stephan Moore. Bring the kids for an interactive percussion activity at 2:00pm. Hear more about Inuksuit in a pre-concert talk at 3:00pm. It’s a day-long listening adventure for all ages and tickets are FREE!
