Havana Nights

Composer Randall Standridge says Havana Nights was "conceived as a short ballet" that tells the story of a young girl named Havanna as she dances her way through the night life of Havana, Cuba. Film maker Scott Winters takes the idea of a choreographed ballet, the jazz influences of the town and the salsa rhythms of the music and creates a digital ballet to tell Havanna's story. He even includes a suggested lighting design with light cues delivered right out of the Muséik software! Highly rhythmic with stunning colors and graphics, this film and optional light show is a perfect pairing with the music. 

This synchronized film for concert performance is driven by Ion Concert Media's proprietary Muséik technology. With Muséik, a user controls the pacing of the film to match the pacing of the music, making concert visuals behave like an instrument in your ensemble. The software is easy-to-use and intuitive, and can be used by musicians from middle school to the professional level to achieve a perfect media sync with just 20 minutes of practice.
