Step into the shoes of a conductor with the immersive virtual reality experience Partitura! After choosing from a selection of works by Vivaldi, Dvořák and Ana Sokolović, the user will find himself on the podium of the Maison symphonique in front of a string orchestra of OSM musicians. Immersed in this unique point of view, he will then visualize the musical staves of each group of instruments as though it were karaoke, isolating both audio and visual levels in an interactive manner. A rare occasion to demystify the role of the conductor and explore the language of classical music!
