DAVID IBBETT keyboards\nBETH STERLING soprano\nMOTOMI TANAKA soprano\nJESSICA MINK guest scientist\n\nThe Firebird Pops once again joins forces with composer Dr. David Ibbett and the Multiverse Concert Series for a groundbreaking performance of Octave of Light — a genre-blending, science-inspired musical exploration of exoplanets and the search for life beyond Earth.\nOriginally written for soprano, electronics, and chamber ensemble, Octave of Light comes to life in a new orchestral arrangement for this special performance, featuring Dr. Ibbett on piano and electronics, sopranos Beth Sterling and Motomi Tanaka. Drawing on real scientific data and developed in collaboration with Roy Gould of the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian, the music sonifies the spectra of distant planets — translating light into sound.\nFusing classical tradition with electronic music and scientific storytelling, this concert invites audiences on a journey across the stars, where music becomes a bridge between art and discovery.\nThis performance is eligible for Card-to-Culture discounts through the Mass Cultural Council for eligible cardholders. Please see firebirdpops.org/events for more information.\n \n
