Australian Celtic Harp Revolution

Adriano Sangineto, composer and harpist, and Jacopo Dessì visual and light designer, came to visit us in the studio to talk to us about their brand new multimedia show “Visual Harp”, and thus inaugurate, together with SBS Italian, their Australian tour.

On stage, under a futuristic structure that lights up at the command of the expert hands of Jacopo Dessì, Adriano Sangineto plays his Celtic harp, and almost dances with it, interpreting his original compositions with physicality and richness of rhythm.

Through improvisation and the mutual exchange of sound and visual cues between the two artists, the audience finds itself immersed in a continuously evolving dimension, enjoying a unique and different show on every occasion.
