What you hear exactly depends on where you stand. Each singer of the 40-person choir has been recorded separately. You move close to an individual speaker for an intimate experience with a single voice, bass, tenor, soprano, alto, tenor, baritone and bass\u2026or you stand in the middle to hear all forty voices united.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This is one of two Janet Cardiff sound installations at Inhotim. Another pavilion houses <i>The Murder of Crows<\/i> written with her husband, George Bures Miller, a 30-minute composition, unsettling but ending on a lullaby.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">INHOTIM<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Rua B, 20.
