Blizzard doing an orchestral concert for 20 years of WoW

It would be great though if it wasn’t in Switzerland.

Regardless I think it would have been worth seeing an orchestra performing all of Blizzards music live

That seems cool though. It’s a beautiful place.

Maybe they will take the show on the road.
At the very least there should be recordings.

Better find us a goblin with some rocket fuel! Where’s Akston? He’s both a goblin and a shaman. Problem solved.

Literally anywhere other than Switzerland? Are the acoustics poor there?

Move over, we’ll fly there in style.

But first…who’s paying for Jet A?

My trust in these rickety human airships and the MROs putting all the pieces on/together as of late is not super firm. I used to log all kinds of miles in the sky, now it’s

Do I really have to? Somehow, like most things, the efficiency and faith in flight nose dived in 2016, like so many other things. It’s weird that it’s been almost a decade and travel by flight has not recovered.

Maybe they’ll stream it.

It would be an epic failure in the US, even the movie flopped there.

Is there a zeppelin from Orgrimmar?

Since there will probably horde and alliance motifs playing, they needed to find some neutral ground.:switzerland:

Watching a live symphony or orchestra is way different than watching a movie with stilted acting and crummy overly used CGI. Just like how watching a music video is way different than going to see a band in concert live. The way we process music doesn’t require the visual immersion that movies do to make us -feel- the powerful emotions. Which is why a lot of movies utilize amazing soundtracks to enhance their content and more deeply elicit intense emotional responses. I think it would be interesting to see what orchestra they might get to take it on tour in the US, and like the Switzerland crew are they adding the vocal ensembles? I bet it would be downright amazing.

Orchestras do astounding things with artistic content and make it all their own, with their talents, strengths and flair. I love the Chicago & Boston Symphony Orchestras, and the Berlin Philharmonic is on my bucket list to go see. I’d definitely bite and get tickets to a live orchestra concert of WoW music. IF I could shuffle my schedule and my finances to get out to Switzerland in September, I’d go see this rendition. Unless fortune swings a winning lottery ticket my way, I’ll just have to hope they post some of the footage online.

Who’s the audience for this?

And yet there are those out there that thinks World of Warcraft doesn’t do any symphony or orchestra. When this is the very proof that they are wrong on assuming that World of Warcraft doesn’t do any music in a live environment.

You being for real?

People who love music. Especially music from their favorite games?
