At "Trans-Pecos", Reynaliz will be performing her composition entitled "BIKEncerto: a concerto for solo bicycle and orchestra" an inventive work that reimagines the bicycle as a virtuosic musical instrument. 

In this captivating performance, Herrera will appear as the bicycle percussion soloist, joined by her ensemble “Ideas, Not Theories”, performing as the concerto’s orchestra of strings and woodwinds.

Structured in four movements, BIKEncerto explores the surprising musical possibilities of the bicycle — its melodic spokes, frame tubes, tuned tires, chainwheels, and wheel rims, transformed into a rich palette of rhythm, color and texture. Each movement highlights a different sonic character of the instrument, revealing how everyday objects can become vehicles for complex and sophisticated musical expression.

By treating bicycles and unconventional percussion with the same seriousness and artistic care as traditional orchestral instruments, Herrera invites audiences to listen differently, discovering beauty, nuance and virtuosity in unexpected places. 

Reynaliz would like to dedicate this performance to her dad, Jesus Herrera.

The performance will be followed by a 15min Q+A session with the Artist.
