Connexions

 

 

 

“Connexions” is an innovative multimedia production that explores the intricate connections between early music and the avant-garde New Discipline (J. Walshe). Through a fusion of visual and auditory elements, the production takes the viewer on a fascinating journey that unravels the threads linking these two seemingly disparate genres.

From the exquisite harmonies and virtuosity of the past to the bold experiments of the present, “Connexions” weaves a unique narrative that highlights the similarities and contrasts between music from different eras. Using cutting-edge technology and a carefully curated selection of musical pieces, the production invites the audience to explore the evolution of music over time and to reflect on how the influences of the past continue to resonate in the contemporary soundscape.

By merging antiquity with modernity, “Connexions” challenges temporal and stylistic boundaries, demonstrating that in the vast universe of music, connections never cease to resonate.
