Universe of Sound

Philharmonia’s large installation guided people through Holst’s celebrated orchestral suite The Planets, as they step from room to room to see parts of the titular musical pieces. Through the use of 360-degree projections and multi-channel surround sound, visitors can also be guided as a conductor of the pieces, learning about how it may feel to guide the band.

By incorporating interactive elements while attendees can set their own pace, visitors better understood the power behind one of the greatest works in the classical canon.
