Austria Comes to Montréal after Victory in Chantilly!

Montréal, Friday, July 25, 2008 – Buoyed by their recent win at the 16th edition of the Concours international de feux d'artifice de Chantilly (pyrotechnical competition), the Austrians are coming to Montréal to compete at L'International des Feux Loto-Québec presented by TELUS. Just over a month ago, Pyrovision GmbH won the Bouquet d'or (top honors) at the Nuits de feu (nights of fire pyrotechnical competition), beating out seven other European firms and one from Argentina. So, the Salzburg pyrotechnical experts—who breathed the same air as Mozart—should be treated with appropriate respect!

For Heaven and Hell, Pyrovision is offering a sound score that sometimes contrasts sharply with the work of the great Austrian composer. In fact, music from the heavy-metal group Black Sabbath will kick things off, depicting the "evil" aspect attempting to vanquish the "good." The Devil striving to defeat the gods and angels. Hell wanting to win out over Heaven. All this represents the theme of duality and alternance, as stated by designers Christian Czech and Beda Percht.

"We don't have a huge firm, he says. We're not here to produce the largest fireworks. Our aim is to create the most emotion because, in my opinion, the most important element in pyromusical shows is the emotion generated."

Since its first entries in competitions in 2004, Pyrovision GmbH has earned recognition from all over. Indeed, they walked off with the honors at Knokke, Belgium, and even twice won the contract for the celebration of the Kingdom of Bahrain's national holiday! Curiously enough, Pyrovision teamed up with Prestatech (the firm that launched the opening of L'International des Feux Loto-Québec presented by TELUS) in producing a show at MIDEM in Cannes in 2006.

Paul.
