Details
This Halloween-themed concert presents an exciting program blending classical music, film scores, and musical theater pieces with a slightly eerie and fantastical atmosphere. Eiji Wents guides the audience through the performance, providing talks about the music, singing, and storytelling to create an immersive experience. The event features a powerful orchestra and includes a special conversation with guest Shimpaku Shimada, known for his ghost stories and palm readings. The program is designed to be accessible for those new to classical music or families with children, offering a relaxed yet thrilling musical journey without the fear of traditional horror. Special attention is given to works such as Saint-Saëns' "Danse Macabre," Lalo's "The Sorcerer's Apprentice," John Williams' "Harry Potter" themes, and Andrew Lloyd Webber's selections from "The Phantom of the Opera." Admission is not permitted for children under school age (or aged 3 and under depending on the specific session), ensuring a suitable environment for the intended audience. The program is subject to change, and performers may vary slightly.
