Last week, German Music @ SXSW 2024—a project managed by Initiative Musik (the German Music Export Office)—presented a series of events in Austin spotlighting diverse German artists spanning multiple genres. Along with showcases focused on electronic music and indie artists, their series kicked off with a mesmerizing evening of “Modern Classical Music from Germany” at the historic Central Presbyterian Church, featuring performances by piano-based electronic duo Grandbrothers, orchestral pop composer/singer/pianist Lisa Morgenstern, and neoclassical artist Sofi Paez.

We were there to to capture behind-the-scenes interviews and live footage with all three boundary-breaking artists to help document this truly special and unique evening. Check out the recap video below, as well as some photos from the event.

German Music @ SXSW and the performances of the German artists were supported by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action. For more information on all of the artists and their events at SXSW, visit the Initiative Musik site.
