Imagine sitting inside a piece of music, surrounded by sound in every direction.
That’s exactly what happens in Immersed, a groundbreaking audio-visual experience from JUNO Award-winning bassist and producer Justin Gray. Created using Dolby Atmos immersive audio, this event places listeners in the center of a three-dimensional orchestra, where music isn’t just heard—it moves around you.
Featuring 38 world-class musicians from around the globe, Gray’s compositions blend Indian classical music, jazz, and electronic soundscapes. Every note, rhythm, and texture expands beyond traditional stereo, creating a sound environment that shifts, evolves, and completely surrounds you.
With stunning visuals accompanying the piece, Immersed is a rare chance to hear music in a whole new way.
