Music meets light in a larger-than-life spectacle! 🎵✨

We are excited to spotlight “Echoes of Light,” a project led by the talented students at the University of Cincinnati - College Conservatory of Music (CCM)!
These student visionaries are taking Tristan Eaton’s iconic Cincinnati music history mural and transforming it into a dynamic canvas. By creating a mesmerizing mashup of the musicians' tracks, they are turning sound into an unforgettable lighting masterpiece. 💥
