The concert takes place during the international BASS 2012 convention in Copenhagen.<\/p>\n<p>On August 17th we are staging a spectacular outdoor concert. We call it the &#8216;Battle of Copenhagen&#8217;, but instead of firing canons, we will be shooting explosive double bass music from a gigantic double bass orchestra, with spectacular light and fire installations accompanied by historic war ships.<\/p>\n<p>The concert features 150-200 double bassist playing live. A breathtaking choreography of historic sailing ships, floating dancers and light and fire installations on the water.<br \/>\nThe event takes place in the beautiful old parts of Copenhagen Harbor, close to the Little Mermaid, and is inspired by the old sea battle of 1801.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The concert is supported by The Danish Art Council and the team behind is dedicated to making this a both unique and pleasant experience for you.<br \/>\nWe would consider it an honor if you took part in this event, and helped us in making the 17th of August an evening not soon to be forgotten.<\/p>\n<p>A film of the concert will be made. Free to share on You-Tube with friends and colleagues.<\/p>\n<p>All you have to do is<br \/>\n1. Be available and in Copenhagen the 17th August 2012.<br \/>\n2. Take part in one or two rehearsals in the days before the event. Rehearsals will take place in the Opera.<\/p>\n<p>To join the bass orchestra or more information about the \u2018Battle of Copenhagen\u2019 event, please contact Andreas Bennetzen, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.andreasbennetzen.dk\" target=\"_blank\">www.andreasbennetzen.dk<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2026 und noch ein Kontrabass-Massenspektakel: Andreas Benetzen organisiert anl\u00e4sslich der Bass2012, dem europ\u00e4ischen Kontrabass-Kongress, der im August in Kopenhagen stattfinden wird, ein Konzert mit 100-150 Bassisten.
