ArtOfVirus
I invite you to participate in the “challenge” called ArtOfVirus (AOV).
I am Kornél Fekete-Kovács, composer, soloist and artistic director of the Modern Art
Orchestra chamber orchestra. First let me tell you about the concept, and let me explain
what and how you will need to do, if you accept being part of this project.
The purpose of the initiative is to use music to model the spread of a pandemic, the
mutation of a virus, its latency, disappearance, and re-appearance, in other words: behavior.
Unfortunately these questions became part of our everyday lives for the past weeks and
months. I tried to think of something that can incorporate as many artists as possible,
creating a grand-scale piece of art together.
AOV is a massive performance, a virtual work of art, which, as the pandemic ends, will exit its
virtual space and will be performed in front of an audience in the traditional way.
I created a melody consisting of nine notes, which can be considered the body of the virus.
This melody lacks rhythm, tonality, harmony or any other context. This makes it possible for
it to be easily adapted into the different musical trends and styles of the different artists.
As the first step, I sent the “virus” motif to ten different composers, who created the first
mutations of the body, and thus the first ten branches of the spread of the “virus”.
I SENT THE MELODY I IMAGINED (WHICH SYMBOLISES THE BODY OF THE VIRUS)
TO THE ABOVE MENTIONED COMPOSERS.

Létrehoztam, egy kilenc hangból áló dallamot, amely a vírus törzsének tekinthető. Ez a
melódia mentes ritmustól, tonalitástól, harmónia, vagy bármilyen kontextustól. Ez teszi
lehetővé, hogy különböző zenei irányzatokban, stílusokban alkotók egyaránt könnyűszerrel
adaptálhatják saját hangzásaikba.
A “vírus” motívumot első lépésben tíz különböző zeneszerzőnek küldtem el, ők hozták létre
a törzs első mutánsait, egyben megteremtették a “vírus” terjedésének első tíz ágát.
