Van Beinum Zaal @ PHIL Haarlem

The delicate craft of cutting is like a symphony of artistry, a dance of precision that sets the tone for the entire journey of record manufacturing. It is the first brushstroke on a blank canvas shaping the first step of the final masterpiece. This panel is where the alchemists of this magical art can talk their secrets, where the curtain is lifted to reveal the demands, obstacles, and triumphs of their daily craft. From nurturing ancient lathes to conjuring up new ones, from cutter heads to the finesse of styli and the challenges of quality control - every note matters in this grand overture. Will we have news to share about a well-needed second raw lacquer manufacturer? Join us, and open your ears to the whispers of the cutting room.
