LookOut Series @ Steppenwolf Theater
One of our more important commitments this summer is our performance at the amazing LookOut Series at Stteppenwolf Theater, a program that strives to shine the light on up-and-coming artists from Chicago. We are honored to present our program CRISOL (melting pot). CRISOL is an ongoing project fueled by the idea of cultures fusing together to propel the creation of new ways of defining and making music. From the use of ancient forms poetry to the fusion between technology and sound, CRISOL presents a melting pot of new works from Chicago composers and sound artists.
