Eternalize listening to the music of the sea
The hypnotic power of the waves crashing against the rocks cubed and seasoned with polyphonic melodies that gain or lose intensity to the rhythm of the force of the sea. you are sitting on it sea organ : at a glance some steps that, built along 70 meters from the westernmost coast of Zadar, they descend to the sea, they explain in ARG Noticias.
Silence. the sea will touch
What you don't see is a little more complex. Total, 35 pipes of different lengths, diameters and inclinations that rise obliquely over the sea to the paved part of the coast, ending in a kind of channel. On it they have built stone stairs , in which visitors usually sit down to listen to the magic that takes place inside. And what does it consist of? The air, pushed by the sea, generates whistles that play seven five-tone chords that come to the surface through openings carved into the stairs, they explain on the Zadar tourism website.
Marine music as soundtrack
The Sea Organ was built in 2005 by the architect Nikola Basic , who was awarded a year later in Barcelona with the European Prize for Urban Public Space.
