ICMC 2025 has seen an impressive series of Reach related events, such as the opening concert where the Reach Team performed with Somax2, SoVo (Somax2 /+ George Lewis’ Voyager) along legendary musicians Roscoe Mitchell, Steve Lehman and George Lewis. The next day there was an evening concert entirely devoted to Somax2 (see program below), and during the week a Somax2 workshop was given that drew a lot of attendees, followed by a Club concert in the evening where the attendees could Jam on both sides of Somax2 (playin the instrument, or controlling the software).
