Multimedia artist Hara Alonso presents an interactive concert in which we help her create a collective orchestra with ordinary objects, musical instruments and technology. The performance will take us on a journey to a highly imaginative sound universe.
| Duration: | 1 hour |
At this concert conceived specially for the She Makes Noise festival, En Familia attendees will discover the necessary tools for creating sound. Everyone will take part in a collective process to orchestrate a symphonic piece using ordinary objects and musical instruments, therefore developing active listening, improvisation and creativity. The audience is invited to bring their own instruments, from small percussion ones (xylophones, castanets, etc.) to ordinary household items that make a sound (spoons, newspapers, polystyrene, fruit and vegetable peel, etc.).
We recommend bringing a crunchy sound, a water sound and a sound related to soil.
Hara Alonso is a pianist and composer. She combines electronic and instrumental elements to create sound experiences around new narratives that mix music and technology. Using improvisation, creative processes, interfaces and coding, she composes new systems and languages. Hara works as a sound designer and leads various art research projects at the University of the Arts in Stockholm, where she lives and is an artist in residency at Elektronmusikstudion. In 2014 she embarked on the participatory composition project The City Composing. Besides her artistic practice Hara teaches music programming in the Swedish capital and runs workshops.
