IMPACT Opera

IMPACT premiered on February 18, 2023 at Tanzhalle Berlin, created by choreographer Shiran Eliaserov, composer Amir Shpilman, and dramaturg Louis Geisler.

IMPACT by Amir Shpilman

A contemporary opera combining orchestra, choir, and stunt performers, realized through advanced engraving and a custom Sibelius plugin for real-time orchestration and material transformation.

The Challenge

The score demanded highly versatile notation techniques and tight synchronization with complex stage action, including stunts. Standard engraving tools could not keep up with the pace and intricacy of the production.

Our Solution

We developed custom digital solutions and a dedicated Sibelius plugin for real-time orchestration and notation. This streamlined the engraving process, enabled fast iteration, and maintained precise control over musical and visual complexity.

Key Requirements

  • • Rapid generation and orchestration of musical material
  • • Clear, readable notation for performers and conductors
  • • Integration with rehearsal feedback and stage action
