Director Kai Schonrath and DBC DOP Jan PRAHL staged a very difficult birth. They headed to the delivery room to shoot the commercial for Sven Helbig’s debut album ‘Pocket Symphonies’, released on Deutsche Grammophon. An entire orchestra accompanied the birth of a symphony… In its concept for ‘Classical Music Reborn’, Kolle Rebbe demonstrates its skill as a creative agency for coming up with a radical new approach to advertising classic music.
Sven Helbig, founder of the Dresdner Sinfoniker, is an established composer and producer for the likes of Pet Shop Boys, René Pape, Rammstein, Fauré Quartett and Snoop Dogg. ‘POCKET SYMPHONIES is more than a CD release for me. For many years I have been writing, playing and arranging music for various musicians. Today it is the first time that I will be releasing my own music. It is an album of pieces for my favourite instrument – the orchestra. I am very pleased and hope that this music will mean something to other people.’
