Share in the creation of an interactive performance at ROCO’s Unhambered: Mind Games at MATCH in Midtown on Saturday, October 6, 2018.

The first installment of ROCO’s Unchambered series, Mind Games offers the audience an intimate and interactive evening of small ensemble compositions.

Premiering a new commission by composer Richard Lavenda, ROCO trumpeter Joe Foley and percussionist Matt McClung will play off one another to create the shape of the piece in the moment.

The audience is also invited to join in during the performance by voting on their phones to influence the direction of the piece.

Part of a new series presented by River Oaks Chamber Orchestra, Unchambered features ROCO soloists or small ensembles in the personal setting of MATCH. Mind Games marks the first of four programs to come.
