25 June 2025 Bamberg (Germany)
Video Games in Concert
Bamberger Symphoniker conducted by Eímear Noone - Konzerthalle, Joseph-Keilberth-Saal
Even those who have never played Tetris are most likely familiar with the Russian folk song “Korobeiniki,” which served as the soundtrack for what was probably the first video game with cult status and is inextricably linked to it. And ever since the success of epic games like “Fortnite,” “Resident Evil” or “Horizon,” it’s clear: video game music goes beyond the scope for which it was created. Like the soundtrack to well-known films, the characteristic melodies are often familiar even to those who have never played the corresponding game. Under the direction of Eímear Noone, the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra is now bringing the video game compositions from well-known games to the Bamberg concert stage. The Irish composer and conductor has touched over 100 million people worldwide with her music for the online role-playing game “World of Warcraft”. With her compositions, she not only won the Hollywood Music in Media Award, but also received five nominations for the Annual Game Music Awards 2014. Together with singer Aisling McGlynn, the symphonic musicians take the audience into strange worlds and combine the sound of a classical symphony orchestra the sound of electric guitar, bass and drums. A journey through magical forests, post-apocalyptic civilisations and treacherous labyrinths - not only video game lovers will get their money's worth on this special concert evening.
Music from well-known video games such as "Assassin's Creed", "Call of Duty" and "Uncharted"
SPECIAL CONCERT for teenagers aged 12 and over and young adults
