Lyden af lys is a scenic choir composition written by composer Josue Blanco Balaguer. The composition is based on Josues deep admiration and fascination of Your Rainbow Panorama, a large artistic installation (created by Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson) on the roof of ARoS (Aarhus Art Museum).
"The concept of Lyden af lys is to create a piece of music for a small chamber choir designed to be performed inside Your Rainbow Panorama, where the color, the sound, the words and movement are combined in a synesthesic experience and union of the arts. While as a whole being a musical tribute to the magnificent artist Olafur Eliasson, Lyden af Lys aims to guide the audience to a new perception of the space, highlighting the inherent relationship between light, colours and sound." - Josue Blanco Balaguer, 2021
