Establishing a relationship between Ovid's mythological literary work, dance and electronic sound composition, we start from the myth of Orpheus to the creation of an operatic piece. In a meeting of several orphic characters, we reflect on the dichotomy between the tangible and the intangible, the present and the absent time, the individual and the collective, exploring new aesthetic oppositions and corporal languages.
