Music critics can be blunt, some might say even brutal, when expressing their opinions. So, concerts at any venue do not always receive rave reviews when it comes to their musical virtuosity. However, there is one thing that virtually every writer praises about every performance at Concertgebouw Brugge – the quality of the acoustics! Completed in 2002, the Paul Robbrecht and Hilde Daem designed venue has been hailed the world over for, as one critic wrote, “its acoustic wizardry,” the result of a series of technological innovations that reduce the length of reverberations.Read More »CHAUVET Professional Maverick Silens 2 Profile Makes Quiet Contribution to Concertgebouw Brugge
There are many ways to measure the success of a lighting design. At the top of the list is how well it supports the spirit and flavor of the music being performed on stage. At Kennedy House, an iconic nightspot in Tokyo’s Ginza area, this means reflecting the classic hits popular in Japan from the 1960s through the 1980s. The Hibino Lighting team kept this goal firmly in mind when redesigning the lighting rig at the club, which opened its Ginza branch in 1985. “Songs from the classic era make up most of the music at this venue,” said Hiroshi Adachi of Hibino Lighting. “Most of the clientele grew up in that era. They come here to enjoy a meal, listen to music, and have fun. So, we wanted to create lighting that contributed to this atmosphere without interfering with the artists on stage.”Read More »Hibino Lighting and CHAUVET Professional Create Camera-Friendly Retro Looks at Kennedy House

Time was on Cosmo Wilson’s mind on Sept. 8 when he lit Aerosmith’s pandemic-postponed 50th Anniversary Concert at iconic Fenway Park.
