This is an online event like no other. InsideOut Digital events bring together audience members from all over the United States and as far as Paris and Moscow, to experience a performance both as listeners and active participants.
Take a look at this video with highlights from one of the previous InsideOut Digital events:
"During this pandemic, where many orchestras are prohibited from having 'in-person' audiences, we are all looking for ways to recapture the thrill of live performances," says David Bernard, music director of the Park Avenue Chamber Symphony and InsideOut Concerts. "We bring just the right combination of digital technologies, interactive format, and live elements to our remote audience members so they not only experience the music making, but also feel they are in the room with us, interacting and shaping the event directly. Audience members attending these events remotely were moved to tears through the immersive and interactive experience we created," says Bernard.
Audience participants will be encouraged to interact with the conductor and the musicians through "audience avatars"-surrogate audience members who will field remove audience member observations, questions and comments throughout the event.
