Unweathered Embers at St. Mark's Lutheran
Green Sound takes you inside hallowed grounds exploring the magnificent beauty and resonance of St. Mark's Lutheran Church. Unweathered Embers explore the acoustics of the architecture with 20 Bay Area vocalists and acoustic musicians featuring orchestrations and compositions from the haunting Baltic folk-inspired chamber sounds of Myrmyr (Marielle Jacobsons-violin, Agnes Szelag-cello/voice). The all-acoustic musical event creates a uniquely spatial and dynamic performance without power or amplification. This magical performance in this Romanesque Revival building, built in 1895 and designed by architect Henry Geilfuss, utilizes the architecture and movement within it, and features voices, bells, percussion and other instruments for strange acoustical properties and long reverberations. Clusters of performers surround audiences in different areas and nooks, some even hidden from view, creating a reverberant other-worldly sound that will change as the audience members move through the space.
