Berlin Philharmonic Rehearsal
Florian Hoffmeister and the Berlin Philharmonic in-situ — a wash of cold daylight-balanced overhead concert lighting recolored to read as cinematic key. Hoffmeister deliberately worked with the existing rig rather than rebuilding it.
Tár's orchestra-stage scenes used the actual Berliner Philharmonie venue lights, white-balanced to the LogC3 plate at the colour stage; minimal supplemental fill.

Composer & cues
Cate Blanchett character performs the Mahler in-film; Guðnadóttir's additional cues had to coexist with that recording.
