Residency at Shenandoah Conservatory

Alarm Will Sound, joins Shenandoah Conservatory for a virtual residency that revitalizes music-making during the COVID-19 pandemic. During AWS’s week with Shenandoah Conservatory, the ensemble will engage students and the community through workshops, masterclasses and performances; culminating in a digital side-by-side featuring Shenandoah Conservatory’s EDGE Ensemble and Alarm Will Sound performing John Luther Adams’ Ten Thousand Birds. Originally premiered by Alarm Will Sound in 2014 and inspired by “particular birdsongs, captured in minute detail,” Adams’ composition was the first work the ensemble adapted for it’s “at-home” series, when COVID-19 shut down cities across the globe.


Managing An Arts Organization Through Change & Disruption

Presentation by Gavin Chuck, Managing Director of Alarm Will Sound
Wednesday, November 18 from 12PM to 1PM (EDT)

“More than ever, Alarm Will Sound is leaning into experimentation. A profound impact of the pandemic is uncertainty. But instead of merely dealing with it, imagination is a potent way to overcome uncertainty. When nobody knows what’s next, artists can and should imagine what’s next using what is at hand.” – Gavin Chuck, Executive Director of Alarm Will Sound
