Meanwhile, Jorge Vilaplana, head of AV/Pro Products at Charmex, claimed: "The projectors from the HS series are the ideal solution to achieve a high level of brightness and a low level of noise. We had to carry out a whole series of calculations during rehearsals to ensure that the projection would be perfect and we needed projectors with sufficient power like Christie to ensure the ideal lighting." In addition, the walls are covered with satin-finish wood.

As Fausto Morales clarified, "the auditorium has some highly unusual features, with some planes facing in different directions, plus large structures for the lighting and audio systems. One of the biggest challenges for Slidemedia was the architectural features of the space. The lens used in this case were 1.2 and the throw distance was 38 metres. The other two side projectors were located on the first gallery, where the images were conceived to create an immersive sensation. The central projector was located in the middle of the auditorium, more specifically in a cabin fitted out for this purpose, with a 2.0 optical lens and a throw distance of 41 metres. "The truth is that the low noise passed the test of such a highly demanding and discerning public as an opera audience".
For this reason Slidemedia chose the laser phosphor models from the Christie HS Series, which have a noise level of just 39 db. Of course, an indispensable prerequisite for the projectors was that they would produce no noise, given that silence is absolutely essential in this type of event. Between the side and front walls, the surface area covered was around 70 by 12 metres. The blending projection covered the whole of the back wall of the auditorium (behind the orchestra and choir) as well as part of the side walls and boxes, which the Slidemedia team had to mask in order not to dazzle the audience. "So we immediately got down to work and started developing a projection that would match the 90 minutes or so the composition lasts." The importance of silence To this end, it wished to make the most of new technologies, although of course remaining absolutely respectful with the primacy of the music over the projection", explained Fausto Morales Gil, Slidemedia's art director. "OBC and L'Auditori, home of the Barcelona Symphony Orchestra, wanted to add a new dimension to its performance of Verdi's Requiem that would make it much more than a simple concert. According to Gundula Kreuzer, "Most perceived a schism between the religious text (with all its musical implications) and Verdi's setting." Barcelona Symphony Orchestra (OBC) commissioned company Slidemania to reimagine a visual setting for its performance of Verdi's opera at the L'Auditori in Barcelona and help bring audiences closer to the emotional context of the work. Both musically and in the ecclesiastical décor designed for the performance. Laser phosphor projection for Verdi’s RequiemĪt the time of its premiere, Verdi's Requiem was criticized by some as being too operatic in style for the religious subject matter.
