A major research and composition project by Hilary Kleinig exploring the importance of deep listening to each other and the world.

In an age of 24-hour connectedness and distraction, The Lost Art of Listening brings people together to meditate communally on sound, music and listening and its place in human existence, framed by a stillness that is rare today.  

Featuring pianist Erik Griswold, this performance piece for prepared piano and smartphone choir invites audiences to use their phone to play a vital and choreographed part in a shared sonic experience.  

The Lost Art of Listening began life at Adhocracy 2016, and Vitalstatistix is excited to be supporting the work in its final creative development.
