Lippold Haken's brother Rudolf was commissioned to write a piece for the Champaign/Urbana Symphony Orchestra commemorating its 50th anniversary. He decided to feature the the Continuum in the piece, which ended up being called "Quinquagenarium". I performed it with the CU Symphony on February 19th, 2010 in the Foellinger Great Hall at Krannert Center.
The performance went well and was well-received. It was a novelty for most of the audience to hear Eddie Van Halen guitar sounds at the beginning of an orchestral concert.
Here is a YouTube video.
