Girolamo Deraco: Phone’
Our world is more and more digitalized. In the 21st century music is also conveyed by digital symbols on CDs, DVDs, on the radio, or on television. In his installation called Phone’ Girolamo Deraco has reversed this trend by re-transforming digital sound to analogous. One hundred gramophones will sound one hundred pre-printed and reproduced vinyl discs on which the digital sound has been recorded. The musical composition will create a musical sound-space never experienced before.
Concept and music Girolamo Deraco in collaboration with Alberto Maria Gatti
Conductor: Ádám Cser
