Message is a choreographed music performance with four drummers slowly walking through the slowly through the six rows of the audience and is preferably performed in a public in a public square or in an urban backyard. The The clashing of the different cymbals during the performance can be heard initially from the four corners of the room and gradually these sounds travel along the through the audience along predetermined paths. Each individual visitor is given cymbals is held directly to the ear of each individual visitor, creating an unexpected spectral sound inside the body. After this central event of the performance, the cymbal sounds move away and mingle again with the with the others. The changing perspectives of the spatial perception of these of these abstract musical signs make visitors think of a constantly changing mobile. Some of the audience follow the action from outside the the rows of chairs, but without being able to directly experience the kaleidoscope of cymbal sounds on their own ears directly.
