Turn Off the Lights and Turn On the Music

Turn Off the Lights and Turn On the Music: Wednesday 18 November 2026, 19:30–20:30, Hovedbiblioteket, Herlev. Admission is free.

The library's facilitators Claus and Pia invite you to a listening experience in an almost dark room, where Mike Oldfield's "Tubular Bells" is played from beginning to end - without interruption, in the order the artist intended.

"Tubular Bells" was released on May 25, 1973, and more than 50 years later is still considered a central work in progressive rock. Hearing an entire album in context offers something different from a random playlist - the songs unfold as a whole.

The library provides excellent sound, and you choose whether you want to sit in an armchair or sofa, or lie on a mattress.
