Janet Cardiff: Forty-Part Motet.
Rideau Chapel, National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, Ontario

The publicly and critically acclaimed Forty-Part Motet is now back on display at the National Gallery of Canada.

This brilliant sound sculpture by Canadian artist Janet Cardiff is a reworking of Spem in Alium, a piece by 16th-century English composer Thomas Tallis.
Forty separately-recorded choir voices are played back through 40 speakers positioned around the Rideau Chapel in the Canadian and Indigenous Galleries.
The effect of the work on visitors is deeply moving.
