Spaghetti Chorus

Visitors are invited to speak into one of two microphones suspended at the ends of a long, glowing thread. As voices travel through shafts of color, they transform into a fusion of music and light, creating unique melodic moments.
Designed specifically for the National Gallery of Canada’s iconic Scotiabank Great Hall, Spaghetti Chorus is a new installment in Daily tous les jours’ Hello series. This series explores the music and harmonics of human speech through poetic messaging systems. In a world increasingly dominated by screens, Spaghetti Chorus uses the human voice to forge musical connections, inviting a deeper bond beyond words.
