An Auditory Survey of the Last Days of the Holocene

An Auditory Survey of the Last Days of the Holocene presents a radical catalogue of our created world’s sounds as a continuous multimovement work for piano, percussion, and fixed electronics. The audience is faced with the echoes of our human-made environment, stripped bare of visual distractions, and taken on a journey of action and possibility.

Composed by Frank Horvat, this work illustrates the current state of pollution and destruction by employing over 150 different audio samples indicative of the climate crisis.
