On 4 and 5 August 2018, Trailblazers Gandini Juggling performed this special commission accompanied by the rousing sound of brass music played live by Circus Tsuica, a French band of musical acrobats. Performing within the rhythmic rise and fall of the 55 water jets of the courtyard fountains, the 30 jugglers performed within the constant flow of movement, water and sound to create a mesmerising celebration of skill, beauty and music.
