Super-surround sound at Tate Modern

Had one of my mooches around London over the weekend.
Highlight was Janet Cardiff's audio installation "The Forty Part Motet" at Tate Modern.
A ring of 40 speakers (all B&W DM303), each playing a different and individually mic'd singer from Salisbury Cathedral Choir singing a Thomas Tallis piece.

An absolutely magical experience.

    That sounds like it would be worth the trip to the big smoke for. I'll have to see when it's on until.

    Just looked on the Tate Modern website and I can't see the information.

    Good luck!
    It was down in the basement bit. Which I think is called "the tanks" (as they used to be large oil tanks).
