“It was like stepping aboard a space ship, departing from the planet in slow motion” – thus the impression of a member of the audience present at the world premiere of this masterpiece for 50 pianos and ensemble by G. F. Haas. This exceptional work, which was first presented at the Wiener Konzerthaus in the form of a promenade concert in 2023, now returns to the Great Hall after a long journey via Amsterdam, Prague, Hanover, Düsseldorf, Hangzhou, New York and Berlin; this time with a seated audience.
