Michigan Tree Choir
Performance
2025

Sounds of native Michigan trees blowing in the wind were collected and programmed into Logic Pro to be performed live. Similar to when a choir of people sings together, a group of trees blowing in the wind together also create a chorus of unique voices. The concert was performed outside so that the trees and other wildlife could also participate.

Performers:
Hailey Becker - tree choir, saxophone, auxiliary percussion
Joe Berry - drumset, found objects
Catherine Lee - marimba
Thomas Moberg - vocals, dulcimer, crotales

Performed at the Woldumar Nature Center on Friday, May 9, 2025 in Lansing, MI
