The soundtrack was divided into four sections of 6 hours: morning (waters), afternoon (forest), evening (markets & cafes) and night (crickets & campfire). This soundtrack incorporates rich natural sounds and original music compositions influenced by different cultures from around the globe.

Inspired by the Sacred Scriptures and the many myths and legends about the journey of the Soul, music composer Henri Scars Struck creates for SOLUNA and the Crow Collection of Asian Art, a multi-room sonic experience that takes you from this life and its gravity on Earth and beyond, till the Soul finds Eternal Rest.
The Soul begins its odyssey from Gallery 1 – with the exhibition of exquisite paintings and photography of landscapes and mountainous terrain by Arnold Chang and Michael Cherney – to the passage of death and to Galleries 2 and 3, where good and evil deeds confront each other during the period of mourning, judgement and penitence before being released to the majesty of the last gallery, where the Soul finds peace in Eternity.
For some, this installation could be a way to meditate upon their purpose and actions in this life and the hereafter, asking themselves “what would we change today if we knew that an afterlife exists?”
At the very least, Struck will trigger your memories via a succession of music and sounds, some of which might make you smile in contemplation, and will afford you the time to breathe for a few minutes or for several hours, at the final Gallery of "Divine Pathways,” where cushions are provided for personal reflection.
Henri Scars Struck was commissioned to compose and produce an original soundtrack for a rare Dali sculpture exhibition that happened in Barcelona at the Le Méridien Ra Hotel in 2016.
Until today, with 34 sculptures, there has never been such an extensive installation of the master’s three dimensional work. This film contains excerpt of the music and a few images of the sculptures.
At the entrance of the exhibition, each visitor is provided with headphones that have been loaded with the 45 minute composition, based on the order of the installation. While walking from one sculpture to another, the score is a natural accompaniment to the visitor’s exploration throughout.
