Celleisdoscope

Celleidoscope is a special composition for the 50th anniversary of the 12 cellists of the Berliner Philharmoniker. The music is based on the idea of a kaleidoscope, in which colourful glass stones fall together differently each time they are turned, creating new images. The principle is adopted in the 12 cello parts: The instruments are arranged in a semi-circle and the musical building blocks run through the parts and are constantly rearranged, resulting in a unique music-playing and listening experience.
