ROCO’S new mobile app delivers live commentary for performances
(San Diego, September 20, 2018) – River Oaks Chamber Orchestra in Houston, Texas will be presenting ROCO In Concert: Checkmate this coming weekend. This will be the first set of concerts that will feature a LiveNote-enhanced experience for audience members via the new ROCO mobile app. Performances will take place at Miller Outdoor Theatre on September 21 at 8pm and at The Church of St. John the Divine on Saturday, September 22 at 5 pm.
LiveNote is an interactive performance guide for mobile devices delivering complementary commentary and images to audiences in real-time. First developed by The Philadelphia Orchestra, LiveNote is now available exclusively through apps powered by InstantEncore and Tessitura Network Mobile PlusTM.
“We are so happy to partner with the River Oaks Chamber Orchestra. We really hope that ROCO’s audiences will love the LiveNote experience and their new mobile app,” said Chris Montgomery, CEO of InstantEncore. “ROCO has been at the forefront of bringing important and innovative musical content to audiences for over 10 years, and we are excited that LiveNote will be part of future experiences.”
Audience members can simply download the free River Oaks Chamber Orchestra app from the Apple or Google app stores. Upon entering the venue, users will be able to easily access the LiveNote experience and also interact with other value content related to ROCO.
“Accessibility, playfulness, expanding experiences–LiveNote is the perfect companion to continue to deepen ROCO’s relationship with our audience, whether in the concert hall or around the world live-streaming”, said Alecia Lawyer, Founder, Artistic Director, and Principal Oboe of ROCO. “We’re very excited that this weekend’s concerts will feature LiveNote commentary accompanying the beautiful Martinů, Sinfonietta “La Jolla” H.328.”
Over the coming 2018-2019 season, orchestras, opera companies, and performing arts venues will bring audiences closer to the works they love and the performers who bring it to them. LiveNote enhanced experiences can be accessed via your favorite organization’s mobile app.
