Praised by the Chicago Tribune as “jaw-dropping,” UChicago Presents' SOUND/SITES series, a collaboration with the Department of Music, pairs the Department’s accomplished faculty members with the stunning and varied architecture found on the University of Chicago campus. Featuring innovative programs curated specifically for the filming locations, SOUND/SITES places music and venue in a mutually beneficial relationship that encourages the viewer to pay close attention to the intricacies of both the performances and the unique settings. Conceived out of necessity during the 2020-21 season, this series is here to stay and promises to provide unique streaming experiences to viewers around the world.
