Stephan Graf v. Bothmer: PARIS IS SLEEPING

A scientist invents a spotlight that can stop time and puts Paris to sleep. One morning, the young night watchman of the Eiffel Tower, Albert, discovers at a great height that all life in Paris has suddenly frozen. Only a few people who are also at a great height, like some airline passengers who landed in Paris early in the morning, have escaped its mysterious effect and find themselves alone in a sleeping city. [R. Claire, F 1924]

With his concerts on five continents, Stephan Graf v. Bothmer has so far thrilled over 300,000 guests: at the Schleswig-Holstein Festival and in the Laeiszhalle Hamburg, as well as in Berlin in the Admiralspalast, in the Wintergarten Varieté and in the Berlin Cathedral, even at the Rock-Pop Festival at Tempelhof Airport after Björk, Blur and the Pet Shop Boys. His compositions are as dramatic as they are playful and virtuosic, a fusion of Beethoven and Pink Floyd, Chopin and Deep Purple, African music and electronic music. He opened the 3rd International Organ Festival in the Almaty Philharmonic Hall (Kazakhstan) with two silent film concerts.
