Density512 Density512 is a chamber orchestra and collective of brave and open musicians in Austin, TX.

We produce imaginatively curated experiences, amplify the voices of groundbreaking and emerging artists, and cultivate interdisciplinary collaborations. Since entering Austin’s new music scene in 2016, Density512 has presented numerous performances featuring world premieres and the works of living composers. Throughout that time, Density512 has remained committed to bringing music into Austin’s community spaces including breweries, children’s museums, art galleries, co-working spaces, restaurants, and theaters. Density512 participated in Fast Forward Austin’s 2018 new music festival, in nine performances of Ragnar Kjartannson’s kinetic sculpture S.S. Hangover at The Contemporary Austin, and as featured performers in the Blanton Museum of Art’s Soundspace series. Other local collaborations have included projects with the Austin Chamber Music Center, Liminal Sound Series, Silent Films Out Loud, and Golden Hornet.

Featuring Austin Cantorum in our upcoming show HEAPS, Sept 25 & 26th. Austin Cantorum is a professional chamber choir that creates unique and powerful musical experiences through creative programming, thematic storytelling, and personal connection. They've been around since 2017 and specialize in taking their audiences on an emotional journey within their events. They offer quarterly concerts and this year launched a new bi-monthly choral meditation series called "Twilight Choral Meditations". They are so excited to be collaborating with Density512 on HEAPS, which itself is a beautifully meditative journey through such an era-defining song.
