Intonarumori - Can You Hear My Noise?

€130.00

“Let us learn to listen to the rhythm of waters, of air, of gases in metal pipes; the roar of engines that breathe and pulse with an undeniable animality; the hissing spirits and the gurgles of valves.”

Intonarumori is a mechanical-acoustic musical instrument invented by the Italian futurist artist Luigi Russolo around 1913–1914.

It is considered one of the forerunners of electronic and experimental music.
