Aquasonic

It'll be a truly unique performance, like something out of American Horror Story.

Overview

Performances are often called 'unique', but there is no other word to describe Aquasonic.

Avant-garde ensemble Between Music have spent years researching the possibilities of performing music underwater. AquaSonic is the result of numerous experiments with scientists, deep-sea divers and craftspeople to develop a style of singing and create instruments capable of being played underwater – such as the hydraulophone and the electromagnetic harp.

Featuring five musicians submerged in individual glass aquariums, singing and playing custom-made instruments, the result is a haunting, disquieting performance that wouldn't be out of place in American Horror Story.
