MYTHOS, Showcasing Music from Stage, TV, Film & More, Set for 92Y, 10/6

Classical and Broadway musician Peter Sachon and Carbon Cello Productions, in conjunction with New York Comic Con 2014 and the first annual New York Super Week Festival, will present a unique concert experience, MYTHOS, a showcase of great music from across the spectrum of modern orchestral genres - music from the concert stage, television and film, and video games - featuring the all-star orchestra The Third Estate, conducted by Grammy Award nominee, Austin Wintory, composer of Journey , as well as vocalists from Choral Chameleon.

Mr. Wintory has curated this concert from the music of many of today's leading composers into a seamless, dramatic orchestral work that promises to be an exceptionally innovative experience. All of the music for MYTHOS has been composed in the last several years, and will be performed continuously, woven into a single seamless piece. No intermission - no printed concert programs available until the end of the concert so that all may enjoy the listening pleasure that comes from not knowing what's next!

MYTHOS will show you how beautiful and deeply engaging modern music can be!

Grammy-nominated and two-time BAFTA-winning composer Austin Wintory diverse career has straddled the worlds of concert music, film, and video games. In 2012, Austin's soundtrack for the hit PlayStation3 game Journey became the first-ever Grammy-nominated video game score, also winning two British Academy Awards, a DICE Award, a Spike TV VGA, and IGN's "Overall Music of the Year," and a host of other awards. Excerpts from the score have been performed all over the world since its release, including by such as ensembles as the National Symphony, San Francisco Symphony, Colorado Symphony and Pacific Symphony. Austin's score for the earlier game flOw made him the youngest composer ever to receive a British Academy Award nomination. An orchestral version of this music has been performed at the Smithsonian Museum as a part of their "Art of Games" exhibit; flOw is currently on display at MoMA in New York City.
