Open Call for amateur and professional brass and horn players!
Enjoy the return of “Waterway Horns,” a singular initiative that activates NYC’s vital public waterfront gathering spaces through the power of music. In partnership with the Tideland Institute, Captain N.D. Austin has outfitted the historic tugboat Shoofly with a custom-designed ‘Hobophonium’ sound system made of salvaged tubas, ship horns, and bells. Musicians aboard the tug will perform as it makes its way along the East River and Hudson River, to be joined at select piers by a Landlubber Ensemble assembled under the direction of acclaimed composer/musician Stefan Zeniuk. Join us in creating a dynamic and integrated call and response composition! Register to participate at THIS LINK.
While visible and audible all along the Hudson River shorefront throughout the day, key “stages” featuring the Landlubbers along the route include:
Pier I, Riverside Park, west of W70th St - 12:00-12:15pm
Pier 45, Hudson River Park, west of West 10th St - 2:00-2:15pm
Pier 17, South Street Seaport - 3:30-3:45pm
