This show was AMAZING! I have told everyone that asks: it's not a concert, it's a party! It truly celebrates Prince and his music. Be ready to sweat and dance. My only complaint? It wasn't long enough! I could've danced some more!
This show was so much more than I’d ever imagined. What a blast!! The symphony playing the music, harmonizing with the band and the singers—plus people clapping, singing and dancing along—made for one of the best experiences at a show I’ve ever had. Loved everything...the talented artists, the video accompanying the music, the lights, the sound...all incredible!
The Theater was beautiful and small. The symphony quality was not Prince quality of a Orchestra. He would have never allowed this symphony to tour in his name. But with that said, I believe the audience was mostly made of a younger people and some 28-45 ages who wished they would have seen him in concert and some people that were around to see 57+ and wanted to hear him again in a concert environment. I brought a friend who has never seen Purple Rain, the movie but remembers the music and time and was up dancing. The mom that sat next to me was up and dancing to her delight of the sound and brought her 2 daughter’s 13&14 to share the music 🎶(they were embarrassed that mom was standing up and dancing. I leaned over and told them. “Don’t worry about mom enjoying herself. She brought you to this event to share some wonderful memories and a very talented artist. Your lucky girls to here it, even if you don’t know or realize how talented he was.” While standing in line for a beer. I talked to a young married couple about the the 2 times when I saw Prince in concert(The US Festival at the LA Colosseum where he was booed offstage and then The Purple Rain Tour, where the tickets said “Wear something Purple.”) They bought my beer for me because of the stories I told them about prince. While standing in line in the ladies room at the end of the concert. I asked how many people have seen prince in concert? And it was a long line, you know how ladies line is always long. Only one person said that they have seen Prince in concert and she had seen him 5 times. The age of the women in line went up to at least 65. So in the long run. If this tour brings Prince’s music to those who missed out or those who would love to hear him again in concert. Than it’s a successful tour. BUT!... I attended the Purple Rain Tour at the LA Forum, and nothing will compare! Prince deserved the Academy Award that he won for his music . Thank you for a memorable night with Prince and symphony .🙏🏻
I have never enjoyed a concert or musical event more. The music got into my body and soul. The orchestra ROCKED Prince’ music! People were up from their seats dancing and grooving. Video streaming of Prince enhanced the show, along with two singers. If you get a chance to see a show like this, DON’T PASS IT UP!
About 30+ of us saw this performance of Prince tunes with a Symphony, great evening!!! See if they are in a city near you!!!
I thought this was a wonderful show. The music was absolutely beautiful and the lead singer did such a great job of not impersonating but really celebrating the songs. I really hope this show tours every year because it’s such a treat to hear Prince’s music live especially with an orchestra. The only complaint I had is with the video feed. I wish the videos of Prince were much clearer but I know it’s old footage so maybe I’m expecting something that is not possible. Anyway great job to all the performers and thank you for keeping our beloved Prince’s music alive!!
The musical performance by the symphony was phenomenal. Absolutely fantastic. A must see.
Although very emotional, this symphony was brilliant!
I loved hearing Prince's music in a different genre. I could barely see the concert video during, Purple Rain nor understand/hear Prince speaking over music sometimes. The t-shirts on sale were nice but no display of what the back looked like and we did not know they were for both, male and female. The musicians were great.
This tribute concert was amazing! The stage, the songs, the night! Last reviews indicated there were no singers, just music . . .QuestLove must have made an adjustment because there were two singers on stage in San Diego. I think with his reach Quest could have found a higher caliber singer, but if you are a Prince fan you're singing so loudly and into the music so much you kind of ignore it. The videos and pictures of Prince made me happy|sad . . . I miss that man. I'd go see this tribute again. It gave me a touch point and reconnection to his royal badness. Rest Easy My Prince . . . Your music lives on . . .
Wow!!! That show was so great. I am loijung forward to the next big event. Your service is great!
I was under the impression that what would be presented would be a tribute to the music by Prince as expressed by the symphony. When that occurred it was amazing. The interpretation of the song "Little Nicky" was interesting, complex and engaging. When it was decided to add the vocalists to mimic Prince it was a detractor for me. It was like going to a garage cover band concert. I would encourage the symphony to be allowed to do what it does well.
The tribute was phenomenal with performances of all his songs. A mix of his genre and symphony combined brought out an appreciation of his creativity and genius.
Very well done, great music, people dancing and singing a great tribute to best of all time Prince.
They nailed the subtle touches that Prince often added to his music. I loved that it wasn't all hits...there were B-sides. Venus de Milo is one of my favorites.
2nd half great! Everyone got up and danced No merchandise available
The show was amazing!!! His best songs translated into beautiful pieces with swelling violins and a funky bass!!! So cool!!!!
Amazing show and proper tribute and showcase of Princes music . The backdrop lights video and interludes worked perfectly with the song selections and sequences- Hats off to all involved
The symphony was excellent. Everyone should see this at least once. Many people that were exiting were hoping for a second night - don't think everyone knew exactly what to expect - but all were blown away.
SA Symphony did a fantastic job capturing Prince's music. Just wish there was more vocals with the music.
