THE JAZZIVERSUM

“Der Anfang von Raum und Zeit” (“The Beginning of Space and Time”) is the title of Jean-Luc Lehners’s book at the heart of this jazzy, scientific excursion into our cosmos. Fascinating facts and sounds about the Big Bang, the speed of light, string theory and quantum theory are presented with scientific grounding and humour on a jazzy “tour de science”.

Musicians from the BigBand of Deutsche Oper Berlin meet the renowned physicist, mathematician and author Jean-Luc Lehners.
