Sting — Sounds Like Art, Rijksmuseum Amsterdam 2026

Live concert film of Sting, “Sounds Like Art,” captured at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam for ARTE and released in 2026. In this format where music converses with the visual arts, the British singer-songwriter — a former member of The Police and a seventeen-time Grammy Award winner — pays tribute to the museum’s old masters, drawing inspiration from Rembrandt’s The Night Watch as well as works by Vermeer and Judith Leyster. Accompanied by a seventeenth-century guitar loaned for the occasion, Sting performs excerpts from his musical The Last Ship as well as some of his greatest hits, including “Message in a Bottle,” “Shape of My Heart” and “Island of Souls.” This intimate capture, filmed in an exceptional heritage setting, conveys the refinement of a major rock songwriter. A reference filmed live concert for fans of rock, singer-songwriter pop and live performances in remarkable venues.
