At the 2026 Brit Awards, Spanish sensation Rosalía delivered the first live performance of her new symphonic track, “Berghein”, in a moment made even more extraordinary by the surprise appearance of Icelandic icon Björk. It marked the first time the two avant-garde artists shared a stage, creating a spectacle that has already become the talk of the music world.
Rosalía appeared in an expressive white ensemble, opening the performance with a German-language operatic section that immediately commanded attention. She was accompanied by the Heritage Orchestra and a semi-circular choir, all dressed in sharp blazers, forming a dramatic backdrop for the performance. At a pivotal moment, Björk emerged from between the choir members, her signature avant-garde attire and delicate, bead-adorned headpiece seemingly floating in mid-air, captivating the audience with her ethereal presence.
The performance transitioned into a high-energy finale, where Rosalía and her dancers delivered an intense choreographed sequence. Heavy synthesizers, strobing lights, and electronic beats transformed the stage into a living homage to the legendary Berlin nightclub Berghain, blending symphonic grandeur with club intensity in a seamless fusion.
Since releasing her Lux album in November 2025, Rosalía has performed live only on rare occasions, previously presenting just two tracks, “Reliquia” and “La Perla”. Each performance has been progressively more dramatic and immersive. The Berghein presentation at the Brit Awards offered a glimpse of what audiences can expect from the upcoming Lux World Tour—a tour set to combine theatrical flair with orchestral sophistication.
The Lux World Tour will commence on 16 March 2026 in Lyon, France, encompassing 42 stops across Europe, North America, and South America. Recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra, the album suggests that live shows will likely include orchestral accompaniment, adding depth to Rosalía’s already dynamic performances.
