This past weekend, the Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival, along with Detroit Chamber Winds & Strings, hosted its first live performance since March. About 60 audience members spread across the 3-acre space of The Quad at Cranbrook, and 32 musicians were interspersed between them. This atmospheric and dynamic performance provided an individualized experience for each person in attendance, with audience members seated in various areas of The Quad hearing the music differently than others.
