A listening guide in real time, for an immersive and connected experience!

This brand-new commentary option in real time was designed to guide and facilitate your active listening during the concert. Various segments of information will be shared directly to your cell phone for the purpose of enhancing your concert-going experience and offering you concise pointers about the works you are hearing. This commentary is synchronized with the music and will automatically display on your device without any need to touch your screen, for your full enjoyment of the concert.

*For the time being, this listening guide will be offered exclusively during the concert on November 7, 2024.

The real-time listening guide was developed for cell phones to provide details for you to consult live, throughout your concert. Various screens synched with the music being played are displayed simultaneously and automatically to all connected cell phones, against dark backgrounds that reduce screen brightness, for an optimal in-hall experience.

The real-time listening guide can be accessed with a QR code (provided onsite) and uses your phone’s default web browser. Without any installation required, the system integrates seamlessly with your device’s operation, with minimal battery and cellular data usage. The feature requires virtually no user activity; real-time commentary will automatically display on your connected device, without you having to do anything.

Live commentary can offer a new way of enjoying the concert. It is like a quiet friend, letting you in on details in real time about the works being performed, deepening your experience. Brief notes that provide insight into each of the works are displayed: for example, facts about the work’s composition or indications of the instruments prominently heard at given moments.

At concerts that have offered the real-time commentary feature, a significant reduction in disruptive cell phone noises was actually observed. The program’s display routinely asks its users to turn off their ringtones and notifications, ensuring everyone’s optimal concert experience.

This program’s technology is specially designed to minimize screen brightness with visuals against a dark background. In this way, both users and those who prefer not to consult the guide avoid any interference whatsoever in their concert experience.
