Free Symposium | More Information

Take a virtual journey to Hagia Sophia, Constantinople’s Great Church, when the renowned choir Cappella Romana returns to the Bing to continue its collaboration with Stanford’s Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA) and its Art and Art History department. CCRMA will digitally imprint Hagia Sophia’s reverberant acoustics on Cappella Romana’s sublime Byzantine chant, complemented by visuals designed to create a totally immersive experience. Faculty experts in art, music, and technology lead the audience through this acoustic and aesthetic journey in time.

A related symposium will take place on Saturday, November 5, in the McMurtry Building’s Oshman Hall.
