ROCO on Buffalo Bayou

Project, September 14, 2020

ROCO on Buffalo Bayou – weaving our music through the landscape, providing a soundtrack for Houston!

Explore forty stops along the trails of the Buffalo Bayou Partnership, with ROCO providing the soundtrack to its landmarks and public art. Just scan the QR code and you’ll be taken to a page corresponding to each landmark or art piece, with a paired music selection from ROCO’s fifteen years of live performance recordings, curated by the ROCO team. #ROCOBuffaloBayou

ROCO - River Oaks Chamber Orchestra“We can now physically weave our music through our community, providing a soundtrack for Houston! ROCO has always offered our recordings for free listening, and now you can also enjoy the wonders of Buffalo Bayou while on a musical scavenger hunt.” – Alecia Lawyer, Founder, Artistic Director, and Oboist.

To locate the QR stops, please see the Google map below. If viewing on a mobile device, you may need to download the Google Maps app. You can also hear the music we’ve paired with each landmark by scrolling below the map, but we encourage you to visit the Bayou and find the QR codes in person!
