Singing Trees: the unusual, family-friendly and free concert
- Singing Trees is an installation mounted by the Théâtre du Châtelet and the Louvre Abu Dhabi, as part of the ManiFeste-2020 festival of IRCAM
- Trees sing in the garden of the Palais Royal to raise awareness of the impact of global warming
- It is a digital installation hidden in the trees that reacts to human contact and air quality
- It is an artistic, sensory and civic experience. With the support of Bloomberg Philanthropies, 50 “augmented” trees will sing tunes on one condition: on good air quality
- In the event of a pollution peak, the trees will remain silent, unless the warm embrace of a passer-by restores their vigour
- The musical program is made up of songs: Legs Logs by Pierre Senges and Pierre-Yves Macé (creation), All is full of love by Björk; Wedding at Grenelle of Abd Al Malik and traditional songs: L’Ayyala (Arabic)
- I’m siiiiii-nging in the trees …
