Egozy's ConcertCue to be used at Symphony Hall

Eran Egozy's real-time program note app, ConcertCue, will be used during the Friday, February 9th concert at the Boston Symphony Orchestra. 

ConcertCue presents contextual program notes and images on concert-goers' mobile devices in real-time during the musical performance. ConcertCue will run during the second half of the BSO concert, when the orchestra performs the world premiere of American composer Sean Shepherd's Express Abstractionism, a co-commission of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the Gewandhaus Orchestra. In addition to insightful program notes, the app will include work by such abstract artists as Alexander Calder, Gerhard Richter, Wassily Kandinsky, and Piet Modrian whose work inspired Shepherd's new piece of music.
