The cover picture shows an image of the musical alignment of a supramolecular nanofiber, composed of an anthracene derivative, while the Kobe University Symphony Orchestra was playing classical music. In their Full Paper on page 516 ff., Akihiko Tsuda and co‐workers report the quick and dynamic align of these nanofibers as a response to sensing acoustic streaming flows in liquid media generated by audible sound waves. When classical music was playing, the nanofiber dynamically aligned in harmony with the music.
