CHANCE ENCOUNTER is a 35-minute site-specific musical work,
co-conceived by world-renowned soprano Susan Narucki and composer
Lisa Bielawa, in which Susan Narucki and 12 instruments convene, one or several at a time, in and out of the texture and context of public spaces.

Susan Narucki performs songs and arias constructed of texts collected in transient public spaces, thereby enacting the listener's private (yet collective) experience of the performance space itself.

The piece had its world premiere in Seward Park, on East Broadway in lower Manhattan, and will be available for national and international touring thereafter.

Lower Manhattan has many global-scale associations; CHANCE ENCOUNTER will restitute, inhabit and enlighten the neighborhoods that are on a more human scale.
