Strings of Color – The Colours Sing, the Harp Draws
What happens when music paints and images begin to sing?
Strings of Color is an interdisciplinary performance where harpist Alice Aubert and visual artist Silvia Fabiani create a dialogue between sound and digital art. Through an innovative interplay of live harp music and reactive visual projections, the performance blurs the boundaries between music and image, allowing each medium to inspire and transform the other in real time.
Their new program, The Colours Sing, the Harp Draws – Hymn to the Alps, is a poetic tribute to the Alpine landscape. Rather than depicting mountains as a simple backdrop, the performance invites audiences to experience the Alps as a living, fragile world shaped by geology, legend, memory, and climate. Featuring a diverse repertoire ranging from Debussy and Marcel Tournier to contemporary composers, film music, and works for harp with electronics, the concert offers an immersive experience where colours, movement, and music become one artistic language.

Strings of Color – Les couleurs chantent, la harpe dessine
Que se passe-t-il lorsque la musique peint et que les images se mettent à chanter ?
Strings of Color est un spectacle interdisciplinaire réunissant la harpiste Alice Aubert et l'artiste visuelle Silvia Fabiani dans un dialogue entre musique et art numérique. Grâce à une interaction en temps réel entre la harpe et des projections visuelles générées en direct, les sons influencent les images tandis que celles-ci inspirent à leur tour l'interprétation musicale, créant une expérience immersive où les frontières entre les disciplines s'effacent.
Leur nouveau programme, Les couleurs chantent, la harpe dessine – Hymne aux Alpes, rend hommage à la beauté et à la fragilité des Alpes. Bien plus qu'un simple paysage, les montagnes y sont évoquées comme un territoire vivant, façonné par son histoire géologique, ses légendes et les défis du changement climatique. À travers un répertoire mêlant Debussy, Marcel Tournier, musiques de films et œuvres contemporaines, le spectacle invite le public à un voyage sensoriel où musique, couleurs et mouvement ne font plus qu'un.
