At the Gendarmenmarkt, the Festival of Lights presented a 3D video mapping on the facade of the Konzerthaus entitled „a symphony that never ends“, which traced the development of sound carriers, among other things. With a tribute to Sony Music’s greatest artists. From classical music to international pop to hip hop, all artists are groundbreaking, visionary and shape the current zeitgeist. Then and now. It’s a rapturous journey through time, from the gramophone to the record player to the long-loved music cassette. Many thanks to the artistic team of MP-STUDIO.
The Greek deities on the columns of the concert hall convey the great gift of music to humanity in a spectacle of light and sound. The transformations within the show led through the centuries and let us participate in the history of music. Beginning with the first opera in this building – Carl Maria von Weber’s „Der Freischütz“ – through gramophone and music cassette to the modern electronic sounds.
