FIRST EUROPEAN GAMES CLOSING CEREMONY
BAKU 2015
DASDUR produced the soundtrack for the Closing Ceremony of the First European Games in June 2015, for world-class, international event company Five Currents. The massive show, held in the new Baku Olympic Stadium, was performed before a sold-out audience of 70,000 and broadcast live to half a billion viewers worldwide. In the seven month production period, Music Director Christian Steinhäuser and his team gathered together more than 300 instrumentalists, singers and orchestras to create a stunning fusion of the old musical traditions of Azerbaijan with modern orchestra and electronic sounds. DASDUR’s new arrangement of the Azerbaijan National Anthem has become a favorite of the country’s top government officials.
