Between departure gates and arrival halls, a different kind of music plays. Last Chapter of In Residence Season 24/25 *Presenting “Travellers: Music across Borders & Timezones” by Soumik Datta.* With the sarod at its heart, Travellers is a sonic journey that blends ambient soundscapes, spoken word, and Indian classical roots to create an experience that is both emotive and immersive. Drawing from the tradition where melodies are intimately tied to the passage of time, the piece moves fluidly across shifting time zones and emotional landscapes, dissolving boundaries between cultures, places, and people. *Shows*: June 13 to 15 *Passes*: https://g5afoundation.org/in-residence/ As part of In Residence, you’re invited not just as a spectator, but as a vital part of the creative process. Mark your calendars!
