About this exposition

The phenomenon of interdisciplinarity between music and visual art is slowly taking over the contemporary music scene. Audio-visual works can be encountered more and more these days, however that happens more rarely in the classical, especially harp music world. The author of the research is exploring the possibilities of using video projections together with classical harp pieces with the intention of enhancing the listener’s experience and making harp music more approachable for new audiences that do not usually go to such concerts. The research exposition consists out of two parts: in the first one some of the existing 20th and 21st centuries audio-visual works are being analysed with a deeper focus on the relation between the image and sound and how it is perceived by the spectator; while the second part describes the process and findings of a collaboration with three different video artists. In the end this collaboration results in three different video projections that are created for three known 20th century harp pieces: J. Cage’s “In a Landscape”, B. Britten’s “Suite for harp op. 83” and L. Berio’s “Sequenza no. II”.
