Music is inseparable from renewal and expansion - this is abundantly obvious with Beethoven.
Beethoven the man, the musician and the composer did not conform or comply. He explored, experimented and pushed the limits of instruments, of musical form, of sound. He made use of new technology (e.g. music-automation or the metronome), pursued new paths and opened up entirely new horizons, for himself and for music.
Accordingly, the Beethoven Anniversary in 2020 offers the ideal occasion to develop a vision for a 21st Century concert hall which - fully in the spirit Beethoven - is radically untethered from a 200-year tradition, and which opens up new potential for artistic creativity, production and perception.
The Real Virtual Concert Hall is a living performing space, a visually and acoustically fully transformable 360-degree environment that blurs the lines between reality and virtuality.
Christian Lorenz, Managing Artistic Director at Beethoven Anniversary Society will speak about the Real Virtual Concert Hall on Monday, 19 February at 14:00 in the Hotel Scandic Berlin Potsdamer Platz Conference Hall.
