A forest engaging in dialogue with the exuberant fauna. A restless river cascades towards the sea. One of the monuments of Brazilian symphonic music, Canticum Naturale, by Edino Krieger, is revisited fifty years after its premiere by means of digital art in Canticum Digitale (2022), an audiovisual piece of digital art, or visual music, in which rhythm, harmony, and melody are transposed into the domain of imagery.
Canticum Digitale is an immersive and synesthetic work, where sound and visual stimuli merge harmoniously to create a unique audiovisual experience for the viewer on the volumetric membrane of the eight screens in the Brazil pavilion at Dubai Expo. This performance features soprano Flavia Fernandes and the Goias Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Neil Thomson.
