'Forty-Part Motet (2001)', Janet Cardiff - art/sound installation ..

Henry Moore Sculpture Centre, Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto

----

According to AGO, the installation uses 40 mounted loudspeakers, each outputting a separately recorded voice singing Thomas Tallis’s 1573 choral composition 'Spem in Alium'. The audience can explore choral music as they would a sculpture, by listening to it in parts and as a whole, AGO says. The piece was on special loan from New York’s Museum of Modern Art.
