GatherNYC: The Knights + WQXR - Play Out!
GatherNYC, WQXR and The Knights present Play Out!, an interactive, intergenerational family program (recommended 5 years old +) that focuses on what it means to feel deeply, and how our big emotions are the foundation for how we relate to ourselves and interact with others. Play Out! explores how music is an incredible outside representation of our emotions inside, through a wide range of music for string quartet performed by members of The Knights. Created and hosted by Knights cellist Caitlin Sullivan, this program includes the performance of original poetry by Jennifer Wynn, and video art by illustrator Jorge Carvajal.
GatherNYC is a revolutionary concert experience founded in 2018 by cellist Laura Metcalf and guitarist Rupert Boyd. The 2024-2025 season includes 17-concerts that run from October 2024 through June 2025, with concerts held every other Sunday at 11am in The Theater at MAD.
Guests at GatherNYC are served exquisite live classical music performed by New York’s immensely talented artists, artisanal coffee and pastries, a taste of spoken word, and a brief celebration of silence. The entire experience lasts one hour and evokes the community and spiritual nourishment of a religious service – but the religion is music, and all are welcome. Coffee and pastries are served before each performance at 10:30am.
