The 40 Part Motet by Janet Cardiff

Janet Cardiff's 40 Part Motet is currently on exhibition at the Art Gallery of Ontario. The sound sculpture features Thomas Tallis' Spem in Alium played back through 40 speakers with each speaker capturing a separately-recorded voice. The experience is especially profound when wandering around Moore's monumental sculptures.
