Erstes Virtual-Reality-Projekt mit den Augsburger Philharmonikern

Mit Mussorgskys »Bildern einer Ausstellung« bringt das Staatstheater Augsburg sein erstes Virtual-Reality-Erlebnis der Augsburger Philharmoniker heraus und das gleich mit einer ganz besonderen technischen Raffinesse: Wer das Konzert in 360° in der VR-Brille erlebt, kann sich an vier verschiedene Positionen mitten im Orchester zoomen und von dort per Rundum-Blick eine Perspektive einnehmen, wie sie sonst nur den Mitwirkenden vorbehalten ist: Ob direkt neben dem Dirigenten, mitten zwischen den Fagotten oder vor den Harfen – Instrumentalgruppen, die das musikalische Geschehen bestimmen, sind zum Greifen nah.

First Virtual Reality Project with the Augsburg Philharmonic Orchestra

With Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition”, the Augsburg State Theatre is launching its first virtual reality experience in partnership with the Augsburg Philharmonic Orchestra. There will be a very special technical detail: Visitors experiencing the concert in 360° in VR glasses will be able to zoom in to four different positions in the midst of the orchestra and take in a perspective that is otherwise reserved for the musicians. Whether directly next to the conductor, in the middle of the bassoons or in front of the harps, the instrumental sections that determine the musical performance seem within reach.
