leggenda
A performance of music and dance in virtual reality
This virtual reality exploration of music, dance, and gaze features Ottorino Respighi’s classical music composition “Leggenda” and four performers. Violinist Vladyslava Luchenko and pianist Christia Hudziy bring this Romantic piece to life with a flamboyant sound and phrasing full of elegance. Simultaneously, the acrobats Igor Gavva and Iuliia Palii of the duo You and Me interpret choreography that is passionate and poetic, transcending the normal limits of the human body.
This scene unfolds in the Queen Elisabeth Chapel in Waterloo, Belgium – a concert hall situated in the middle of the forest, a setting that injects the piece with an unusual joy.
