The Concept

Live orchestra meets cinematic sound design

The Cinematic Hybrid Orchestra Series gives conductors a new programming tool: orchestral works augmented by pre-recorded cinematic stems, performed live with minimal equipment.

Audiences hear voices with no choir onstage. They feel a film score without a screen. They experience something genuinely new.

🎚
You Control the Balance Adjust pre-recorded stem levels in real time for your room and ensemble.
📱
Minimal Tech Required A PA system and a phone. No elaborate AV setup needed.
🎼
Based on Great Repertoire Works drawn from beloved classical pieces — re-imagined for modern audiences.

The audiences really enjoyed the hybrid program and thought it was very innovative. Funny how several people were wondering if the orchestra was singing — they obviously didn't see a choir but heard voices.
