A conductor of torn sheet music raises his baton in a shower of colour

Boston Musica Viva was a contemporary chamber ensemble founded in 1969 by conductor Richard Pittman, dedicated to new and experimental music. This dynamic black-and-white promotional poster — produced in the late 20th century — captures the energy and visual rhythm of the ensemble's performances through bold graphic design. A collector's piece for lovers of contemporary music and vintage concert poster art.

Printed on Hahnemühle German Etching paper — the same stock museum studios use — through a twelve-ink archival pigment process that holds colour the way memory holds detail: precisely, completely. Frames are solid ash and oak, hand-made to order. Nothing between you and the image.
