SA8 - Musical Phenomenology: Herbert von Karajan and Immersive Audio
Presenter:Gregor Zielinsky, Sennheiser Electronic GmbH & Co. KG - Germany
Abstract:
"Musical Phenomenology" refers to what happens in our brains when we hear music. Sergiu Celibidache wrote about it, while Herbert von Karajan practised it his whole musical life. Von Karajan was a sound guru: He loved the real, perfect musical sound. What would have happened if he had learned about 3D sound? The workshop describes von Karajan's way of interpreting music and how it relates to 3D. Many audio examples will be presented. These examples describe how 3D sound actually helps to make music performance much better in 3D than in 2D.
