Festspielhaus Baden-Baden
meets National Opera Prague
While the electronic musician Sven Helbig played live in the Festspielhaus Baden-Baden together with the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra, conducted by Thomas Zehetmair, the audience experienced holograms of the dancers of the Czech National Ballet, choreographed by Mauro Bigonzetti, as a live hologram projection.
Conversely, the musicians of the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra appeared as holograms in the Prague National Opera, while the ballet ensemble performed there in real life. Moritz Mayerhofer's 3D animations visually completed the concept of HOLO HARMONIES – DEATH AND THE MAIDEN.
