The Wind Pressure Concert is about the subject of air through the use of the piano and projection. In a sort of space-time circuit, a composition is created using two contexts that have never communicated before. The work Wind Pressure Concert_score_for Ludwig Hirschfeld-Mack Lichtspielapparat_Aria Milano 1972–2017 / Aria Bolzano 2008–2017 by Silvia Hell is a chronology of seven polluting substances that were monitored in the air in the two cities. The same language the artist used to display it will be re-encoded and interpreted by the pianist Enrico Pompili. Transboundary air pollution!
