BIKEncerto: a concerto for solo bicycle and orchestra is a live performance featuring Somerville-based percussionist and composer Reynaliz Herrera as bicycle percussion soloist, accompanied by her ensemble Ideas, Not Theories. The work features the bicycle as a solo instrument alongside strings and woodwinds, with each movement highlighting a distinct sonic characteristic of the instrument, from tuned tire pressures to resonant spokes and metallic frame components. The piece, which earned a spot on The Boston Globe's "Best of Boston Music" 2023 list and received a Global Music Award, represents a convergence of Herrera's classical conservatory training and her decade-long exploration of the bicycle as a serious musical instrument. This performance at Shenandoah University's Armstrong Hall is part of a Spring 2026 tour supported by a Live Arts Boston grant from The Boston Foundation.
