This series of programs marked the first collaboration between the Pulitzer and KDHX. Over the course of five separate events, Sound Waves juxtaposed thematically curated recordings with a live musical performance in the galleries, and each event represented the music of a different cultural tradition found within the St. Louis community: Brazilian, Balkan, jazz, blues, and hip-hop. Performances took place in separate galleries within the Pulitzer, conveying a kind of “call and response” between recorded music and live music that echoed the interactive sound design of Hamilton’s installation.
