"Play a song with the world's largest record (with a car)."

Cultural/Context information for the jury

N/A

Tell the jury about the elements of sound design.

The setting was on ice, the most difficult surface for a car. To play the music, the vehicle had to drive at 35 km/h over grooves carved into the ice on a 100-meter-diameter "melody road." This challenge, conducted in a bitterly cold location where the temperature was -18˚C, resulted in an amazing rendition of "Ode to Joy" from Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.
