Симбиоз iPod и классической музыки

Professional musicians try out how to make music using new technologies. (Informationen auf deutsch unter ) This video shows a performance of the famous aria “Ombra Mai Fu“ from Handel’s serio-comic opera “Serse“ (Xerxes) in an experimental version accompanied on smartphones and tablets. The musicians´s aim is to try out how to make joint music on smartphones. The 7 players are using the app “thumbjam“ for this expressive interpretation. The sound you hear is all played live by the musicians and their smartphones. In this case we are playing on the app-instrument “thumbjam“ for iPod touch and iPad. By lifting and lowering the devices tone and volume can be modulated. In this way an expressive play can arise. However, the DigiEnsemble Berlin plays more than classical music, its musicians experiment with a wide range of genres, play heavy metal, avantgarde or compose own pieces. http://dig
