Elbphilharmonie

"Everything has been done that Elbphilharmonie speaks for the future of Hamburg. And now it is time to listen." (CNN).

This is the official in-depth book about the Elbphilarmonie, this once-in-a lifetime cultural and urban development project.

It traces the genesis of the idea and documents the construction of Hamburg's new landmark, designed by Swiss star architects Herzog & de Meuron, in great detail. The book also delves into all aspects that have affected the building's broadly-discussed construction. In addition, it tells the unique musical history of Hamburg.
