The Hamburg State Orchestra conducted a unique performance on Monday. The musicians left their usual stage and were dispersed in 50 locations around the city—from the town hall to the tennis stadium to the docks. The conductor was perched on the tower of St. Michael’s Church, where she had a view of her performers, arranged as they would be on stage, only much further apart. The musicians themselves were connected by a live video feed. This being Hamburg, they played Brahms. Watch this teaser video; it’s incredible.
