An Interesting Experiment in Bilbao: A “Live” Virtual Choir
Last week, as part of a five day residency in Bilbao, I gave a talk and concert at the spectacular Guggenheim Museum. As part of the event we sent four different choirs to different parts of the museum and performed The Seal Lullaby, with just the piano and I in the grand foyer. (The singers had come from all over Spain, and we had rehearsed the piece for the first time earlier that afternoon). Frankly, the experiment worked better than I imagined it would, very musical, very present.
Here’s a video:
