Australian Music Centre | Breaking sound barriers

Event Details

March Static is an immersive mobile work for massed musicians that reframes the marching band phenomenon as a celebration of community gathering around peace, rather than a representation of military might. Composed by Thomas Meadowcroft (AU/DE) and led by new music luminaries Speak Percussion, March Static brings together a mass of roaming musicians, creating a gentle spectrum of choreographed sound to envelop its listeners. The work is site-specific and reimagined for every new location, both indoor and outdoor. The assembled musicians move in and around the audience as they perform, reframing the performer–audience relationship while challenging the traditional marching band format.
