EvoFest presents Persephone & the Phoenix


  • Banff Centre of the Arts Banff Canada (map)

Persephone and the Phoenix is a wildfire of creative plenty. The NYC-based duo taps into the lush synergy between composition, curation, and playful curiosity by expanding the boundaries of genre, stage, and storytelling.

Fire in which we Burn: Sometimes it feels like the world is burning around us. In far too many ways, it is. But from these ashes, a garden will grow…

With the dynamic life cycle of fire fueling its story/narrative, our program asks a question that’s especially relevant now — how do we go/grow from here? — in an immersive concert-length experience. The program includes our original music, interactive electronic sounds, and adaptive visual design, as well as a range of extended techniques and multi-instrumentalism.
