Per Sundins design vision for the evening was to deliver a video and lighting show to highlight the concert hall’s architectural beauty, while at the same time mixing the expression between classical music and pop art.
As well as regularly working on Sweden’s most prominent ceremonies, Per also has five Eurovision Song Contests under his design belt, and he continues to trust in Hippotizer Media Servers to deliver on the night. His complete set-up comprised: a pair of Hippotizer Amba Media Servers, three projectors to create a 3840×1080 image area, a Datapath Fx4, midi control, and a Datapath HD-SDI.
During the evening, stars performing in tribute to Sting and Wayne Shorter included Gregory Porter, and Nils Landgren. Boel Adler, the Swedish mezzo soprano and music journalist hosted the award ceremony. Adding a sense of royal occasion to events, His Majesty King Carl XVI Gustav of Sweden awarded the two new Laureates with their prizes.
We are delighted that Hippotizer Media Servers played a key role in the presentation of the Polar Music Prize. The significance of this event cannot be underestimated and I’d like to thank the whole team behind the event, particularly our good friends and colleagues Per and Peppe.
