About “THE END”
Translated from the German description:
This first virtual pop-opera in the world is a spectacular, synaesthetic, overwhelming, and touching confrontation with the death wish of a digital superstar.
With more than 100,000 songs, over 170,000 YouTube videos, a big U.S. tour, and a global fan base, the turquoise-haired girl, Hatsune Miku, from Japan is one of the biggest international pop stars. The only difference from Beyoncé and other stars: Hatsune Miku is a virtual 3D-figure whose songs are made by her fans. She was released in 2007 and, since then, users have been writing songs using her voice.
One of her fans is Keichiiro Shibuya, one of the most famous young composers of piano and electronic music. With songs based on lyrics of the Japanese theater renovator Toshiki Okada, Shibuya composed an opera for Hatsune Miku, which highlights synthetic music and the latest animation technology. Hatsune Miku will be larger than life and dressed in costumes from Louis Vuitton while projected on a setting consisting of several screens. All the while, Shibuya will be live on stage accompanying her singing.
