We are proud to announce the comeback of one of the highlights of IFAC 2020 World Congress, Berlin: the IFAC Control Orchestra! Sign up to learn more!
The 21st IFAC World Congress featured the first performance ever by the IFAC Control Orchestra. In this unique event, a virtual orchestra performance was presented including only musicians from the automatic control community. In case you have missed it, you can still enjoy the two pieces that were performed virtually: “For a lifetime”, based on “Ein Leben lang” by the Swiss group Fäaschtbänkler (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARj3vz7NT6I) and “Smoke on the Water”, based on the original song by Deep Purple (https://www.youtube.com/

The organizers of the 22nd IFAC World Congress 2023 in Yokohama are now planning a comeback of the IFAC Control Orchestra, this time live on stage at the congress site. The idea is to form an orchestra ensemble including only musicians from the automatic control community, to practice on site during the IFAC World Congress, and to put on a live performance during the congress.
For this event, we are looking for interested people from the automatic control community who have some previous musical experience and who are interested in being part of a highly dynamic, distributed, nonlinear, adaptive, fuzzy, MIMO, fault-tolerant, learning-based feedback control system with experimental verification and validation.
