brooklyn cultural music center
university of oregon / thesis 2012 The Brooklyn Cultural Music Center is a new institution dedicated to the sharing and preservation of tradition through music. The BCMC serves as a reference point for collective identities, housing archives of recorded material, classrooms, a museum, an instrument library, practice rooms, and a performance hall to be utilized by the ethnic communities in the New York City Metropolitan Area. The building is conceived of as a resonating body – a focus from which the voice of tradition, culture, and heritage can be heard amidst the blur of contemporary society.
