Recent works showcase their versatile and sensitive engagement with architecture, from the dream-themed 555 Kubik at the Hamburger Kunsthalle, the ‘operatic staging’ of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Idomeneo, Rè di Creta at Theatre Bremen, to the celebration of the 10th anniversary of the Museums Quartier in Vienna – highlighting Creative Director Thorsten Bauer’s musical approach to institutions.br/br/The work will explore both the iconic sculptural form of the Opera House but also its place as a home for music, dance and drama, resulting in a work that is both sophisticated and spectacular." a href="http://www.vividsydney.com/events/lighting-the-sails/"; target="_blank"Reference/abr/br/While the lightshows around the harbour are stunning it is worth noting that there is just so much more to the Vivid Sydney Festival and more than one night does need to be allocated to see all that this festival has to offer. br/Check out the website for much more.br/a href="http://www.vividsydney.com/"; target="_blank"Vivid Sydney/a - Festival of Lights and Ideas finished on the 11th June after having opened on 25th May 2012
