  According to John Cage and Murray Schafer every city in the world should possess a garden of sounds conceived as integral part of the inhabited center, in which can be listened to unusual, esoteric and transcendent sounds.

Sonorous installations

Sonorous sculptures and musical instruments for insides and outside.
For gardens and parks, privates and public, routes, exhibitions, conferences, festivals
Theme productions adaptable to the environment


 

SOUNDS OF THE NATURE

From an experience handed down by the ancient studies of environmental acoustics, the researches effected between the different ethnic cultures and the experimentations, also with the most sophisticated technologies, we are able, thanks to a team of capable and unique professionals, researchers, scientists and artisans to offer the planning, realization and preparation of sonorous installations, also permanent.

 

Eolian harps

We create sounds from the movements of the water, of the air, musical tools that activate without the human intervention, that sounds by itself. About ten models and solutions of games of water and eolian instruments as wind organs, eolian harps and chimes in all materials.
There are also installations of tools as modifiers and amplifiers of listening, or for a closer up listening.

We have selected and realized a series of instruments that the public can experiment personally activating them. Harps and terrestrial cithers, gong and tintinnabula's, xylophones and lithophones.

Terrestrial cithers realized from Walter Maioli and Il Centro del Suono

Eolian harps for insides and outside, with box of amplification and without.
To dispose in the house, near to a window, or in garden.
Wind organs can also be realized with long threads hundreds of meters, a great installation.
Wind organs, globular and tubular. Globular forms, as seeds, pumpkins and jars disposed on the trees, on wind mills, or on supports of art, and also buried. The pipes constituted by canes, of different materials, you/they can be placed both in circle and in different ways, following the layouts of the wind and schemes of acoustic design.
