- Location: The O2 Bubble at the O2 London  - Documenting the very best of British music

Sennheiser microphones and audio technology have played an important role in the history of British music. So it is entirely appropriate that when The British Music Experience, a permanent, high-tech, interactive music exhibition, opens at The O2 in March 2009, Sennheiser will be a major sponsor of what promises to become one of London's 'must-see' attractions.

The exhibition will cover 2,500 square metres in The O2 Bubble, the O2's cutting edge exhibition space and visitors will be able to learn about different musical trends, and music’s effect on fashion and politics. The exhibition will also allow visitors to create their own music and download tracks.

Not Just a Sponsor
Sennheiser's involvement goes far beyond financial backing. As a permanent exhibition, the creators of The British Music Experience needed quality audio equipment that both sounded great and was
extremely durable.

This is why 225 Sennheiser headphones, the critically acclaimed closed-back HD 215, have been used throughout the entire exhibition.

Additionally, visitors will have the opportunity to experience a professional recording environment at first hand, singing through a Sennheiser evolution e 935 microphone in the Sennheiser Vocal Booth.

Listen, compare and buy Sennheiser headphones
Visitors will be able to compare and test Sennheiser headphones before purchasing in The British Music Experience's music store.

Sennheiser & British Music          
Since the launch of the Company's first microphone, 1946's DM 1, Sennheiser has become firmly established as THE choice of the world's greatest artists. As Sennheiser continues to grow market share in the music business, much of the future will sing through Sennheiser too.

Over the years Sennheiser has been used in the studio and on stage by thousands of British musicians including The Police, Sting, George Michael, Muse, Kaiser Chiefs, Leona Lewis, Wet Wet Wet, The Feeling, Editors, Keane, The Ting Tings and many, many many more.
