Bauhaus and Music – a Con­nec­tion Rarely Made. And yet, the very first guest event at the Wei­mar Bauhaus in 1919 was ded­ic­ated to music, fol­lowed by numer­ous music­al per­form­ances. When the school opened its doors to an inter­ested pub­lic for the first time dur­ing its 1923 exhib­i­tion, music again played a prom­in­ent role: com­posers such as Igor Strav­in­sky, Paul Hindemith, and Fer­ruc­cio Busoni were in Wei­mar that year to present their works at the open­ing of the exhib­i­tion dur­ing the five-day Bauhaus Week.

Since 2021, the Bauhaus-Archiv / Museum für Gestal­tung has been explor­ing the rela­tion­ship between Bauhaus and music through the inter­dis­cip­lin­ary research pro­ject bauhaus music.

In 2023, Opheli­as Cul­ture PR sup­por­ted the launch of the bauhaus music fest­iv­al. In 2025, the agency is advising the Bauhaus-Archiv stra­tegic­ally, and will also handle inter­na­tion­al press rela­tions for musikfest ber­lin 2025, which will fea­ture the world premiere of Marc Blitzstein’s cubist opera Para­bola and Cir­cula in a con­cert per­form­ance at the Phil­har­monie Ber­lin.
