The brainchild of multi-instrumentalist Eric Heveron-Smith, Einstein’s Dreams blends chamber folk textures with jazz-infused improvisation. Weaving Alan Watts references into stories about migratory birds, Heveron-Smith’s voice soars as he alternates between soulful bass lines and shimmery, fingerpicked chords on his six string bass.
In 2025, Einstein’s Dreams will be releasing their debut album Flight Manifest (funded in part by a grant from the Genesee Valley Council on the Arts). The album plays with themes of space travel, birds, and evolution, acting as a launch pad for flocks of woodwinds, stacks of brass, and entire landscapes full of stringed instruments.
The live experience is elevated by the occasional inclusion of a 6-piece chamber orchestra (modeled after the group yMusic, recent collaborators of Paul Simon). On their album release concert, the orchestra will be joined by the RPO’s own Herb Smith on trumpet and flugelhorn, alongside Jess Breen (flute), Dean Keller (bass clarinet), Esther Rogers (cello), Sean Mulligan (viola), and Carolyn Cronauer (violin).
