Home : The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses - Thursday, October 18 - Citi Performing Arts Center Wang Theatre - Boston, MA | Citi Performing Arts Center (http://www.citicenter.org/show/1476/)

I saw a commercial for this on TV, which is pretty cool if you think about it. Would any of you go? Tickets run $34.75 - $107.25 but it's a real orchestra/choir in a classy theater.


Every performance to date of "The Legend of Zelda™: Symphony of the Goddesses” has sold out far in advance.

"The Legend of Zelda™: Symphony of the Goddesses" is the first ever video game themed concert to feature a complete 4 movement symphony, showcasing the work of Nintendo composer and sound director Koji Kondo.

Over 62 million copies of the game have been sold since its introduction in 1986, grossing more than Avatar and Titanic combined.

The most recent game, Skyward Sword, set a new record for the franchise, selling over 550,000 copies in a week and becoming Zelda's fastest-selling title.

5:47 is worth a listen to hear the dark world theme.

Fantastic, I loved the arrangements, but the production needs work.

The orchestra gives a certain energy though, it's great to hear the themes
from the games in such an refreshing way.

But to go see in theater? Maybe, it does seem interesting.

I wouldn't go by myself and I don't know anyone who would really wanna go. If people I knew where going I'd have no problem. It's not my kind of music but some of it's great.
