Harmonium: Come see the landscape

About This Movie

So, 'Harmonium: Come see the landscape' is quite an experience—it's not just a concert film, it’s more like a visual poem. David Baril captures the essence of the Heptade's 1977 tour with this unique blend of music and visual art. The film's pacing flows with the rhythm of the performances, and the image treatments create a dreamlike quality that's hard to shake off. You really get a sense of the atmosphere of that era, enhanced by the layered visuals. It’s rare footage of Harmonium, and the way they interweave sound and image feels almost like a meditation. The film makes you feel like you’re part of something larger, appreciating the beauty of both the music and the moments captured on screen.
