Chorus

This was taken during the city's third biennial International Festival, a lively mix of music, cabaret, art, spectacle and family-friendly activities.
We went to a lesser known part of the city to experience 'Chorus' by Ray Lees. This is described in the programme as:
"Chorus is an impressive series of huge metal tripods with rotating arms which tower above the audience. At the end of each arm, loudspeakers emit a pulsating, harmonic sound and lights create the effect of a whirling swarm of fireflies, or planets in motion.
These intersecting lights trace rings above the heads of the audience, while the combined chorus of the spinning speakers creates a cohesive harmonious whole that is transfixing and uplifting."

Unfortunately we missed the lights bit of the experience as we went early evening. But it was still mesmerising.
