Tutti Cantabile: Four Elements
This programme is held in Hungarian.
For the Interdisciplinary Arts Call, the Tutti Cantabile vocal ensemble brings to the Sound Dome of the House of Music a reimagined version of their Four Elements concert series, premiered in 2023. It explores the story of the Persian creation myth by presenting musical works that evoke and mirror the moods of the events of creation. In the Sound Dome, the choir’s music is enriched with visual content, involving the listener in a unique way in an extended audiovisual experience.
Tutti Cantabile’s performance entitled 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—through music, light, and projected images all at once. The Sound Dome’s 360° visual space and 3D sound system create an almost womb-like, intimate experience, where live voices and instruments flow around the audience like a stream 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 play of light, and the visual embodiment of the elements. A visual world inspired by cave paintings, ancient symbols and natural textures makes the process of creation tangible: from the solidity of earth, through the flowing of water, to the shaping power of fire and the invisible lightness of air. Four Elements is not merely 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. Whoever enters the Sound Dome steps out of everyday life for a good half hour and becomes part of an ancient yet profoundly contemporary story. We recommend it to everyone who is open to unique audiovisual experiences, to spirituality, to the power of choral music, and to dialogue between cultures.
