Unsound New York

The Kraków-based Unsound Festival, curated by Unsound Artistic Director Mat Schulz, challenges traditional presumptions of contemporary composition with unique staging, unlikely instrumentation, and passionate presentation. Unsound performers draw liberally and without prejudice from the traditions of electronic, experimental, jazz, classical music, folk, and beyond. The festival’s return to Lincoln Center promises audiences a sonic tour of unpredictable ingenuity with unforgettable experiences that blur genre and push the boundaries of the audio avant-garde. This year’s lineup features John Cale, Sinfonietta Cracovia playing Mica Levi, Lucrecia Dalt, RP Boo & Gary Gwadera, Heinali & Andriana-Yaroslava Saienko, Aleksandra SÅ‚yż & Sinfonietta Cracovia, and more.

Curated by Mat Schulz, Unsound Artistic Director

Unsound is co-organized and co-presented by Fundacja Tone – Muzyka i Nowe Formy Sztuki and the Polish Cultural Institute New York. This project is co-financed by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage of the Republic of Poland from the Culture Promotion Fund in partnership with the Adam Mickiewicz Institute. The main partner of Unsound Web KRK – NYC is the Polish National Foundation.
