Water is life, well-being, energy. It is strength and, at the same time, stillness. It is beauty.
It sparks positive emotions, fosters connection, ignites creativity, and invites playfulness.
From this idea comes an immersive project within the walls of Castello di Caldes, inspired by the expression “Elixir of Long Life”—a term used in 19th-century Vienna to describe the beneficial thermal waters of the Val di Rabbi.
The experience unfolds in seven stages: from a single drop to a lake.
A symbolic journey blending music, words, emotions, and legends, guiding the visitor through a unique sensory experience.
Each stage is paired with a creative form that interprets the sound soul of water.
Music accompanies the path through live performances (violin, guitar, and voice) and recorded soundscapes—a harmonious dialogue between past and present, as clear and fluid as water itself.
Water and culture are the vital elements of this event: they nourish the body, the mind, and the soul.
The Seven Stages of the Journey
-
250 Million Years Ago – History (Triassic)
Everything was sea. These mountains were once ocean floors. Sounds and words take us back to the origins of the planet, where water already played the leading role. -
Drop – Art (Life)
Among all natural elements, water has most inspired painters and artists. From Giotto to Monet, it has shaped masterpieces celebrating transparency, fluidity, and symbolism. -
Stream – Poetry (Beauty)
Poets like Homer, Dante, Ungaretti, Quasimodo, and D’Annunzio have all written about water. Their verses evoke serenity, mystery, and transformative power. -
Torrent – Literature (Strength)
In literature, water symbolizes birth, energy, and life. Found in the works of Melville, Conrad, Hemingway, and Salgari, it is both near and elusive. -
Waterfall – Well-being (Energy)
Water regenerates, purifies, and soothes. From ancient spirituality to modern meditation, it represents a return to nature—and to oneself. -
River – Music (Power)
Great composers have translated water into music. With shifting rhythms and deep tones, they’ve told of its gentleness and force, danger and salvation. -
Lake – Legends (Stillness)
Forever linked to creation myths, water is the Earth’s memory. Present in every culture, it is a refuge of legends and a place of peace.
In perfect Miscele d’Aria Factory style, this emotional performance blends drama, music, and landscape in an increasingly immersive crescendo.
Every detail—from the sound design to the texts—is carefully crafted to enhance the beauty of the place and of water, the true protagonist of this journey.
