This was a birthday celebration/date night with my classical music fan sweetheart. We had floor seating, but I actually would have preferred being in the balcony. The experience was fantastic though. The pianist on the Beethoven tribute was phenomenal, and the ORCHESTRA was simply amazing.
I was really, really disappointed. I could see a symphony playing their hearts out - and couldn't hear a thing other than drums, electric guitar, and vocals. If you're looking for a night at the symphony, this is not it.
the show was better than expected Tony's interpretation was awesome he put a great spin on the Bowie classics. i would recommend this to any music fan.
This show rocks! Love the symphony accompaniment! Highly recommend!
Great fun! Great show! Audience members were on their feet dancing!
This was one of the best performances we've ever seen. Tony Vincent & his group backed by ASO fit together like hand in glove. Be sure to catch this the next time it comes to ATL (or any other city you can get to).
Great show. ASO was fabulous and Tony Vincent was a class act.
Very good overall. Not sure who was mixing the audio, but the lead vocals were muddy at times. Also, the lead vocalist's sappy commentary on each song became grating.
From the time we arrived with the crowd buzz wih the wonderful venue it was a life experience. The symphony, the band, and the singer did a great job in fullfilment of David Bowie the person and Artist. I personally like the breif narratives given by singer. Showed study and his appreciation.
Very nice atmosphere and Kirill Gerstein was the best!!!!!
This was my first time seeing the ASO and it was amazing. I highly recommend them and will be going to more shows in the future.
The concert was amazing! We loved every minute of it, even though it was crazy hot. The conductor was awesome about telling interesting facts in all the pieces. 501st stole the show when Darth Vader came out and took over conducting.
Joshua Bell is one of the finest violinists in the World. We could listen to him play for hours! However, the amount of exertion it would take for his usual performance would most likely kill him to play for that long.
This is the 3rd time I have seen Mr Bell perform, and each time I have thought it couldn't get any better. Somehow, it does. The man is a genius. I hope he returns to Atlanta many, many times. The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra gave us another evening of stellar musicianship.
Usually a soloist comes and does their performance with the conductor and symphony as background, like studio musicians. Joshua Bell captivated the audience with not only his masterful control of the violin but how he played with the orchestra and conductor in which it was as if they were one instrument. Bell's playing brought out the best in the ASO.
Performance outstanding. Traffic and parking situation-abhorrent
My husband is a huge Star Wars fan, so just those two words and we're pretty much there! On top of that we are both avid music lovers and never miss an opportunity to see live music if we can. The orchestra was amazing, and I loved the way individual artist were highlighted. I also thought the conductor had the best sense of humor. That was unexpected, but made the evening that much more enjoyable. Although this was ASO present Star Wars, we actually got to hear a vast variety of John Williams' work, including some I didn't even know he'd composed.The only reason I can't give this five stars is because I thought the performance was a little short. Including intermission, we were only there two hours.
It doesn't matter where you sit. It is still great. It was not super loud, but loud enough. They played lots of John Williams songs, which was great. The Conductor was great as he was funny, made jokes, and kept the show entertaining between songs. Wish the show had been about 2 to 4 songs longer though. Some Star Wars characters show up as well.
The Music of Star Wars show was amazing. Hearing all the great Star Wars music live plus all the other John Williams classics was a real treat. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
