[english]
two days before the em 2008 final we're digging the field.
after a walk trough the silent zone we'll dive deeply into the la ola-waves, while fan crowds form the chorus-line…
"European soccer championship – an acoustic invasion of the city. Fearing the masses and the noise. Such were the expectations – wandering around the fanzone the days before the upcoming event.
No entry – closed – under construction: The fanzone is creating deserted spaces of silence. The noise ephemeral.
A story of expectations not being met. Imagine a fanzone and no one turns up." [MF/CH/BK/LRD/FS]
the crowd chorus orchestra plays a composition solely based upon field recordings.
