Hotel Formentor
Pollença · Mallorca · 2 projects
At Hotel Formentor almost everything happens outdoors, among the pines and facing the bay. We have worked on two events that return every year.
The Formentor Sunset Classics is a classical music festival that begins at dusk in a pine grove by the sea. We built the orchestra stage under a truss structure enclosed at the sides with transparent panels, with an LED screen hung above it so the audience could see the soloists and musicians up close. The sound was mixed from a digital console among the audience and the video was run from a separate position. When it got dark, the trees turned blue and purple.
The Converses Literàries and the Formentor Prize for Letters, run by the Fundación Formentor, were spread across the gardens: a transparent marquee with a stage, screen and piano, a platform for the prize facing the sea and, for the dinner, the pool lit in blue and the palm trees in violet.
