"The
various events which I have produced always were a result of my
curiosity to create themes and new artistic expressions that were
not restricted to just music. These events are the reflections of
different artistic schools in which the human being of the 21st
Century finds itself."
Eberhard Schoener is looking for challenge. His event-projects are
unusual - ahead of their time. Examples include the re-design of
the BMW-museum in Munich, the grand Classic-Rock-Nights, the first
simultaneous concert via satellite out of Japan and the opening
of the World Championship in Athletics in Stuttgart, at which musicians
from five continents played together live and simultaneously using
two satellites.

Re-designing
the BMW museum in Munich together with Professor Wilfried
Minks. The big automobile maker had to watch as one
car after the other was removed from the museum just
to be replaced by life sized dummies, portraying well
known people. The museum, as an exhibition room, changed
into a big stage showing various scenes and musical
adventures. The New York Times raved over the "extraordinarily
different way to present cars" and BMW saw its
courage rewarded by the long lasting success of the
project.

The first Classik-Rock-Night: a six hour live-broadcast
to German Television featuring Jon Anderson, Gary Brooker,
Mike Batt and Esther Ofarim. The orchestra was not only
supplying as "background" but maintained its
peculiarity. The audience encountered new sounds and the
fan of classical music got to talk to the Rock-Music-freak. |
