Tutti Cantabile: Four Elements
The applicant to the Interdisciplinary Arts call, the Tutti Cantabile choir, brings to the House of Music's Sound Dome a reimagined version of the Four Elements concert series first presented in 2023, which explores the story of the Persian creation myth by presenting musical works that evoke and rhyme with the moods of the creation events. In the Sound Dome the choir's music is complemented by visual content, uniquely drawing the listener into an extended audiovisual experience.
Tutti Cantabile's Four Elements performance is a special, meditative journey following 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 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 like a stream of sound. The carefully composed musical arc leads from chaos to order: from noise a 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 codices, ancient figures and natural textures makes the process of creation tangible: from the solidity of the earth, through the flow of water, to the shaping power of fire and the invisible lightness of air. The Four Elements is not merely a concert but a sensory-meditative performance that invites the search for inner harmony, a rethinking of our relationship to ourselves and to nature, and cultural openness. Anyone who enters the Sound Dome steps out of everyday life for about an hour and becomes part of an ancient yet deeply contemporary story. We recommend it to everyone open to special audiovisual experiences, spirituality, the power of choral music and intercultural dialogue.
