At the annual Beethovenfest in Bonn, birthplace of Beethoven, a team of “Schülermanagers” (“School managers”) worked on animations of L.v.Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony.

Students from six high schools in the region of Bern worked together to create animations for I.Stravinsky’s concert suite “Firebird 1919”. The best animations were then projected on stage, live synchronized by the students with the Volkswagen crank tool, while the Bern Symphony Orchestra performed the piece live (Project Management: Etienne Abelin and Lushen Wu).
