STROMGITARREN-News

Poll: Who is the best guitarist?

The exhibition STROMGITARREN presents the cultural and technological history of an electrical string instrument, which revolutionized the music of the 20th century and will set the tone for the 21st century. Incorporating fascinating changes of perspective, this exhibition will show bits and pieces, highlights, forgotten and unknown episodes of the history of the electrical guitar.

Every topic will be presented in unique scenographical form accompanied by the music of electrical guitars. Such a project must be more than just a conventional exhibition. Therefore, Stromgitarren will have its own independent aesthetical and musical quality.
