Heartland Festival Orchestra Presents: Immersive Sound & Light
On Saturday, April 5, the Heartland Festival Orchestra will present a unique multimedia program called Immersive Sound & Light. Conductor and artistic director David Commanday and artists Doug and Eileen Leunig teamed up to create a one-of-a-kind interaction of sound, light, and space. Copland’s Appalachian Spring, Wagner’s Siegfried Idyll, Vivaldi’s Spring, and Arvo Pärt’s Fratres will be synchronized with imagery and lighting that the Leunigs have designed and curated. We chatted with the creatives behind this project to learn more about how this collaboration came to be and how visual art and music can enhance each other.
