meet our artists
From Acid Pauli with a live and a DJ set, improvisations on the bass guitar by Farida Amadou to the philharmonic sounds of the junge norddeutsche philharmonie and an audiovisual concert by Max Cooper – the first 17 artists promise a festival edition full of musical discoveries.

what is the detect classic festival?
The Detect Classic Festival is a space for experimentation and experience for all those who want to discover musical worlds and broaden their horizons. For one weekend, we explore classical and ambient, electronic and contemporary, avant-garde, beats, rhythm, room acoustics and blur the boundaries between club, open air and concert hall.
The Detect Classic Festival is a cooperation project between Detect Sounds and the Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
