We’ve been illuminating the world of classical music since 2016. It’s an intimate scene where details matter, and we know it well. More importantly, we know how to make a story stick.
VAN VON comprises a network of photographers, designers, writers, and project managers. Our flexibility means that we can offer affordable services for projects from solo recitals to grand opera.
No matter what you’re looking for, we know the people who can make it happen.

FREO study The German Orchestra Landscape • Brochure
What roles have been played by freely organized ensembles and orchestras since 1900? How has the professional representation of musicians’ interests developed? And where do the independent ensembles and orchestras stand in this context then and now? VAN VON designed the 52-page study by Martin Rempe for FREO.

rbbKultur • Newsletter concept
rbbKultur is Berlin’s leading radio station for the arts. In spring 2019, the station developed an original newsletter concept called zwei vor sechs in consultation with VAN VON. Featuring provocative, surprising editorial and an updated look and feel, the newsletter increases community engagement through expert curation. In cooperation with rbb editors, we also developed a new on-air conversation format. Reporters summarize the latest cultural issues briefly and with flair, grounded by in-depth knowledge of the scene.
