In the organizer's words:
The "Orchesterkaraoke" from Hamburg is characterized by its unpredictable potential for mass euphoria and ecstasy. The event, which now also has a long tradition at the Nationaltheater Mannheim, draws on two sources of inspiration: the literal translation of the word karaoke (= empty orchestra) and a small poster on the wall of a run-down Hamburg bar with the words: "We believe that social change begins with singing in a choir."
The principle behind this extremely entertaining art project by Matthias v. Hartz could not be simpler. Under the baton of festival director Jan Dvořák, the orchestra rehearses various karaoke-style pop songs from Sinatra to Billie Eilish, visitors choose their song and then sing it with symphony orchestra accompaniment. This is probably the greatest singing experience of an amateur singer's life and probably the most generous offer of accompaniment ever made by a cultural institution. - Directly after the landscape music!
