Tutti Cantabile: Four Elements
The Interdisciplinary call applicant, the Tutti Cantabile vocal ensemble brings to the Sounddome of the House of Music a reimagined version of the Four Elements concert series premiered in 2023, which explores the story of the Persian creation myth by presenting musical works that evoke and mirror the moods of the acts of creation. In the Sounddome the choir's music is complemented by visual content, uniquely involving the listener in an expanded audiovisual experience.
The Tutti Cantabile vocal ensemble'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 Sounddome's 360° visual space and 3D sound system create an almost womb-like, intimate experience, where live voices and instruments circle 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 play of light and the visual embodiment of the elements. An imagery inspired by codices, ancient diagrams 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. Four Elements is not merely a concert – but a sensorial-meditative performance that invites the search for inner harmony, a rethinking of our relationship to ourselves and to nature, and cultural openness. Whoever enters the Sounddome steps out of everyday life for just under an hour and becomes part of an ancient yet deeply contemporary story. We recommend it to anyone open to extraordinary audiovisual experiences, spirituality, the power of choral music and dialogue between cultures.
