Yves Klein’s Monotone Silence Symphony in San Francisco

On January 12, 2017 at San Francisco's Grace Cathedral, Lévy Gorvy presented the third U.S performance of Yves Klein's groundbreaking Monotone-Silence Symphony.
Over one thousand people were present to experience this moving and transcendent work, which unfolds as an orchestra of musicians and singers holds a single continuous tone for a twenty-minute period, followed by twenty minutes of absolute silence.
With thanks to Grace Cathedral and online partner Artsy. Video by Slow Clap Productions.

P.S.: Thank you Mr. Dan Brown for acquainting me with creators, artists, art, literature etc, no matter how strange or eccentric they might come across. No wonder u are my favourite author. ❤️

[@lalish6323]

"في الفن الحديث غالبا ما تعتمد التحف الفنية على الفكرة أكثر من اعتمادها على التنفيذ وكمثال على ذلك بإمكان أي شخص تأليف سيمفونية لا تتألف سوى من وتر واحد وتعزف لمدة أربعين دقيقة ثم يتبع ذلك الصمت المطبق لكن ايف كلاين هو من أتى بتلك الفكرة "❤

[@rawbee8932]

Damn. I was absolutely thankful for the silence. That monotone was more irritating than my sister practicing scales on her violin...
