Metropolis Ensemble
For more than a decade, New York City–based METROPOLIS ENSEMBLE, led by Grammy-nominated conductor Andrew Cyr, “ a prominent influence in the world of newly emerging music” (Washington Post), has served as an incubator for many of today’s most outstanding emerging composers and performers to present bold new work, commissioning more than 150 works that have been presented by venues including BAM’s Next Wave Festival, Celebrate Brooklyn, the Met Museum, and Lincoln Center for its Out of Doors and American Songbook series. The chamber orchestra and ensemble has also collaborated with many artists who defy classification, include Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson, Deerhoof, San Fermin, and Emily Wells and performed on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon alongside the Grammy-winning hip-hop group The Roots, on whose album and then you shoot your cousin the group performed.
