AKWSYMORON: Performing Group in New York

About AKWSYMORON

AKWSYMORON is a group heard in New York City rooms like Cassette, where bills often move quickly between scenes and tempos. They have shared lineups with SKY POCKET and WHIRLYBIRD, including the multi-artist program titled “SKY POCKET, AKWSYMORON, WHIRLYBIRD.” Their work favors structure over spectacle, building pieces from tight cues and abrupt shifts rather than long, open-ended drift. In performance, the emphasis stays on ensemble timing and the friction between parts.
