The Elbphilharmonie



The Elbphilharmonie is as you can tell by it's name a philharmonie. In fact one of the largest and most acoustically advanced philharmonies in the world. It is located in Hamburg, Germany. Created by famous german architectural firm Herzog & de Meuron and opened in January 2017. The first thing that catches your eye is the elevation of the building. It is mostly made of glass with many knobs on the glass panels. Whole construction stands on the old warehouse to preserve historic building and blend old design with something fresh. 
You have to admit they succeeded with doing that. Outside look isn't the only thing that is special about this creation. The interior is in fact so futuristic that you probably feel like you're in some sort of alien base when you walk in. From the acoustic point of view it is even more amazing. Designers made a huge effort to make it a top-notch concert hall. Here you can see how weird the main room looks like. It isn't just for aperance but mostly for the best possible quality of sound.
It must be truly stunning to experience a great concert in there and I think many artists would love to perform inside this architectural masterpiece.

    I understand the orchestra are sitting where the piano can be seen, which means they are totally exposed, with part of the audience sitting behind their back. Not sure I'd like that being a musician.

Does art have to be beautiful?

Does art have to be beautiful? In my opinion it doesn't. I think that some works of art just can not be beautiful. For example there are some incredible movies that are considered art but can't be beautiful because you can't really call a movie about some hard topics like war or murder beautiful. Another thing is that some pieces of art aren't made to look nice but for example to make people think about something or show them how our world changes. This is why In my opinion art doesn't always have to be beautiful.

Should people invest money in space exploration

People should definetly invest money in space exploration because it will give us a chance to colonize other planets. This is very important because we live on one small grain of sand suspended in space and we have no more place we can live. Also if some extremely dangerous event occured we would be doomed but if we establish many self-sufficient colonies in different systems we would secure our species from going extinct. The self-sufficiency is crucial here because they will be able to function just fine with our earth being destroyed not habitable any more. This is why I think we should invest money in it.
