Tutti Cantabile: Four Elements
This programme is held in Hungarian.
The Tutti Cantabile vocal ensemble, applying for the Interdisciplinary Art Call, brings a reimagined version of its 2023 concert series Four Elements to the Sound Dome of the House of Music. This version presents the story of the Persian creation myth through musical works that evoke and mirror the moods of the acts of creation. In the Sound Dome, the choir’s music is complemented by visual content, involving the listener in a unique way in an extended audiovisual experience.
The Tutti Cantabile vocal ensemble’s performance titled Four Elements is a special, meditative journey inspired by the Persian creation myth. The concert presents the birth of human existence through the ancient symbolism of earth, water, fire, and air – simultaneously in music, light, and projected images. The Sound Dome’s 360° visual space and 3D sound system create an almost womb-like, intimate experience, where live voices and instruments circulate around the audience as a flow of sound. The carefully composed musical arc leads from chaos to order: from noise, sound is born, then harmony, and finally the “fifth element” – the uplifting experience of music and communal singing.
The performance is accompanied by unique animations, symbolic light play, and the visual embodiment of the elements. The imagery, inspired by cave paintings, ancient symbols, and natural textures, makes the process of creation palpable: from the solidity of earth, through the flow of water, to the shaping power of fire and the invisible lightness of air. Four Elements is not just a concert – but a sensorial-meditative performance that invites you to seek inner harmony, to rethink your relationship with yourself and with nature, and to embrace cultural openness. Those who enter the Sound Dome step out of everyday life for a good half hour and become part of a story that is ancient yet deeply contemporary. We recommend it to everyone who is open to unique audiovisual experiences, spirituality, the power of choral music, and intercultural dialogue.
