Sounds of Toronto - Bicycle Music Festival 2012

Sounds from the Bicycle Music Festival on September 15, 2012, for the "A Toronto Symphony" project. Over the coming months, composer Tod Machover is inviting the citizens of Toronto to collaborate with him to compose a new symphony which will be premiered by the Toronto Symphony Orchestra on March 9, 2013, at the New Creations Festival. Some of the music will be by Torontonians, some by Machover, and some shaped by everyone together. Machover says "My hope is that we will create something that neither you nor I could have done without each other, and that will be surprising, stimulating, and beautiful, a musical portrait about -- and by -- Toronto."
