ACO Virtual is a digital installation that allows the audience to conduct and even play with the orchestra.
Audiences can see how fast the musician's fingers move in a way not possible in a concert hall and hear the unique sounds of the ACO’s multi-million-dollar collection of instruments.
Digital media company Mod Productions helped create the exhibition and used 13 stereoscopic camera rigs to capture audio images of the ACO musicians performing in front of green-screens for the installation.
Touch-screens allow users to feature and listen to one musician, a section of instruments or their desired selection of players.
The unique experience has been visited 23 venues since its inception in 2013.
ACO Virtual is in the Old Fire Station in View Street Bendigo from May 6 to May 27.
