A Far Cry, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum’s resident chamber orchestra, will perform as a part of the Museum’s STIR Concert Series.

A Far Cry has been the Gardner’s Chamber Orchestra in Residence since 2010.

What started as a group of 17 young professionals has evolved to an 18 member group that expands the way music is prepared, performed, and experienced.

They often perform in the innovative and boundary-bending Thursday night “STIR” series, as well as the Sunday Concert Series.

The performance entitled, “The Sea: Tales of Lapham,” will be a song cycle based on the literary anthology, Lapham's Quarterly Volume VI, Number 3, 'The Sea,' written by composer collaborative Oracle Hysterical, from texts by Melville, Cousteau, Verne, Homer and others.

The Museum’s STIR series encourages artists and audiences alike to be bold and explore something new.

This series includes the Museum’s most innovative and experimental art forms converged for an entirely unique experience each time.

A Far Cry’s STIR performance will take place on Thursday, October 6 at 7:00 p.m. in the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum’s Calderwood Hall, located at 25 Evans Way, Boston, Mass.

Tickets are required, which may be purchased in advance or at the door, and include Museum admission.

Admission is $15 for adults; $12 for seniors, $5 for students with valid IDs; free for members; and youth age 7 and under are not admitted.

The Artist-in-Residence Program is directed by Pieranna Cavalchini, the Tom and Lisa Blumenthal Curator of Contemporary Art, and is supported, in part, by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Barbara Lee Program Fund.

This program also is supported in part by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, which receives support from the State of Massachusetts and the National Endowment for the Arts, as well as by the Boston Cultural Council, a local agency which is funded by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, administrated by the Mayor's Office of Arts and Culture.
