School of the Arts Visiting Artist Series: Payton MacDonald

We are excited to announce that composer, singer, percussionist, artist, and film maker, Payton MacDonald will be on McMaster Campus as part of the School of the Arts Visiting Artist Series on October 23-25.

He will be presenting his Sonic Peaks project, which combines experimental music and ultra-distance hiking, captured on film. Payton plans to summit the highest mountains in the US and create graphic scores that reflect his feelings/experiences of the hikes. More info can be found at https://sonicpeaks.com/
