'Kite Choir: A Global Sky Symphony' is a large-scale interactive installation in which hundreds of kites play the recorded singing voices of children from around the world.

 

An international peace project, this choral symphony is an uplifting celebration of life, hope, and peace, inviting audiences to connect with one another and reflect on our shared humanity.

Presented by Cubbyhouse Co. in association with Playable Streets, the project transforms each kite into a musical instrument, with advanced technology allowing the kite spools to act as speakers. Participants can apply unique effects to the voices as they fly, creating a truly personalised and immersive symphonic experience. Audiences can join the symphony by flying a kite or observing from the ground, immersing themselves in a communal celebration of resilience and the boundless potential of youth. Kite Choir combines music, technology, and interactive performance to elevate young voices—our future leaders, creative thinkers, and peacemakers—both literally and symbolically.

 

Creative Director Holly Austin, whose work thrives at the intersection of performance, music, and interactive technology, envisions Kite Choir as a joyful call to unity. The project encourages audiences to reconnect with wonder, creating an inclusive space to play, imagine, and heal.
