June 26th, 9 AM SLT, 25 JST

As we gather to commemorate the 23rd anniversary of Second Life, we find ourselves at the crossroads of history and imagination. This year, the spirit of Hollywood’s Golden Age brings new life to the digital horizon, and no artist is better suited to capture its nuanced magic than visionary musician Tia Rungray. On June 26, 2026, The Wisteria Grove will host Piano & Noise, a haunting and beautiful sonic journey.

Tia Rungray has long been considered a master of the noise-classical genre. Tia’s career is defined by atmospheric depth, ranging from ambient textures to the ethereal echoes of shoegaze. He does more than just play music; he creates environments. For this special SL23B milestone, he invites us into a space where the festive light of our shared history intersects with the quiet, contemplative shadows of the past. Consider the flickering lights of an old cinema, the resonance of a grand piano, and the subtle, textured hum of modern digital life all woven together into a single, immersive tapestry.

The atmosphere of this performance is shaped by Cain Evergarden’s (Paradiso) flawless stage direction, which brings the depth of Hollywood’s golden era to our virtual grove. This concert is a unique opportunity to explore the depths of virtual artistry. Tia will use the AYAstorm 3D Stream technology, which is a specialized viewer innovation that allows sound to exist in physical space, moving and breathing as we do. Whether you are a longtime fan of his work or a newcomer drawn to the beauty of the unknown, this concert demonstrates our community’s enduring creative power. Join us at The Wisteria Grove, where twenty-three years of memories, celebrations, and dreams come together in perfect harmony.
