Enjoy this relaxing underwater music video edited by Nicolás Halaban. The coolest thing is that the visual transitions align perfectly with Igor Stravinsky musical style.

Key Elements of Igor Stravinsky Musical Style

Listening to Igor Stravinsky’s pieces is like being amazed by their powerful sounds that hook you in and create uncertainty. His musical style is synonymous with dissonant textures that create harmonic tension.

It’s no wonder he’s considered one of the greatest composers in the world, whose works transcended the 20th century. In particular, he experimented with Classical and Baroque music.

What’s quite impressive about his compositions is how he creates unexpected moments with the melody. Plus, there are drastic twists accompanied by subtle yet crazy sounds simultaneously.

Certainly, this was perceived as an innovation for his time. I’m specifically referring to the initial period of his work, which roughly spans from 1907 to 1919.

If you’ve had one hell of a tiring or stressful day, one thing you must do is dive deep into the ocean’s depths to unwind. You can do just that with the epic clip above that’s almost 6 minutes long. Clearly, it’s a masterpiece of video editing.

Besides, Nicolás Halaban wants to send a message of mercy and empathy for marine nature, while emphasizing the value of Stravinsky’s instrumental music.

The harmony between all these species gradually unfolds in the visuals, perfectly synced with the complex Petrushka orchestration. Definitely, Nicolás has an eagle eye for even the tiniest details.

In a nutshell, there’s this incredible synchronization and balance between nature and music that’ll glue your eyes to the screen. Once you start watching, you won’t be able to look away…
