The Carlos Moseley Pavilion
The Carlos Moseley Music Pavilion is a performance facility designed for the Metropolitan Opera, the New York Philharmonic, and The City of New York's Departments of Cultural Affairs and Parks and Recreation.
Completely mobile, seven custom semi-trailers can carry the entire facility to any open performance site. One trailer is for the stage and rear truss, two trailers are for the structural trusses, one truck for the fabric and lighting, one trailer for sound towers, one truck for electrical distribution, and one truck for theatrical props.
Designed to be set up in six hours with minimal impact on fragile park locations, this traveling music pavilion has no precedent. The trailers include a self-contained foundation for the pavilion and operable booms required for deployment of the facility. The Pavilion's pyramidal open-truss structure incorporates a translucent fabric shell, a 40' x 78' folding stage, a computerized lighting system, and a distributed sound system employing twenty-four wireless remote speaker towers.
