orkin | cicada symphony orkinstra

In Spring 2024, two cicada broods co-emerged in the loudest natural invasion of our lifetime. Instead of getting rid of them, Orkin turned their shrieking invasion into a musical masterpiece.

 

 

We worked with Emmy-nominated composer, Bryan Rheude, to create a 7-act, 45-minute symphony. It was performed live in Springfield, IL—the epicenter of the double-brood emergence.
