ACCELERANDO MUSIKPRODUKTION
Concert recording for classical music
Have live concerts filmed professionally — with high-quality sound, several perspectives and musically guided editing.
Recording a concert without taking over the room
A good concert recording should not disturb the performance. At the same time, a strong concert film needs more than one static camera. I therefore work with a lean multi-camera setup, remote cameras and carefully chosen fixed positions in the hall.
The more musically meaningful angles we can use, the more precise the later edit can become. The production remains much smaller and more discreet than a traditional TV crew: depending on the project, I work alone or with one assistant, with carefully set cameras and as little movement as possible during the concert.
The image follows the music
In classical concert recording, the point is not merely to document an event. What matters is where the viewer’s attention is guided: to solo entrances, musical dialogues, ensemble reactions, colours of sound and moments of tension.
For me, concert film is a form of guided listening. The edit should not explain or impose itself on the music, but support perception. The result is a video that is musically coherent and works as a publication in its own right.
Orchestra & festival
Larger productions with several cameras and additional crew when ensemble size, venue or staged elements require more complex visual direction.
Workflow
- Initial discussion of repertoire, ensemble, venue, goal and publication format
- Planning of meaningful camera positions, adapted to the venue and concert situation
- Recording of the rehearsal as a musical safety net
- Multi-camera recording of the concert with high-quality sound
- Editing, sound mixing, musical corrections and export
What the recording can become
A production can result in complete concert films, individual works, short excerpts, reels or application versions. This turns a concert into usable material for websites, YouTube, social media, concert presenters, agencies and artistic public relations.
