About
A brand new planetarium dome show experience, Music for Domes, will launch this month at Armagh Planetarium, featuring a breathtaking original soundtrack by award-winning Irish folk musician RÓIS. Combining English and Irish languages, as well as Khmer and French, this original film shot in Ireland and Cambodia takes the viewer on a cosmic odyssey from the Moy to the Mekong via the Milky Way.
At two special screenings on Sat 21 and Sun 22 June at 4pm the documentary launches into an exploration of Irish and Cambodian traditional music, folklore connections and how both cultures map stories onto the night sky.
Music for Domes is a sweeping 360° journey from Navan Fort to Angkor Wat and a sensory odyssey of cosmic proportions filled with mythological tricksters, ancient history and echoes of painful memories of both the Troubles and the Khmer Rouge.
Created by the Belfast-based Hosta Projects, Music for Domes is the third and final installation in their All Flesh is Grass trilogy which set out to explore generational trauma and cultural recovery in Belfast, Beirut and Phnom Penh.
