Great pairing of the symphony orchestra and the Beatles cover band. Wish they had included the early Beatles songs that made them popular.
Best tribute band ever. Music was phenomenal and adding the orchestra was genius. I loved it and plan to attend other appearances.
I enjoyed not only the performance, but the entire ensemble, the costume and likeness. The music is done with skill and to the audience to simply enjoy the orchestration along with the Beatles music.
I didn’t know what to expect. After all, the tickets didn’t cost that much. What a pleasant surprise! Great concert! Go and see it if you have a chance!
I am big Beatles fans and have seen many covers bands. Beatle cover bands due a good job of recreating the Beatles sound with their earlier catalog but fall short with the later catalog that have a more symphonic sound to it like A Day in the Life. This (Classical Myster Tour) cover band using the New Jersey Symphony orchestra did a great job in reproducing these more complex songs. I loved the concert. One of the best I have seen. It would have been the best concert I ever saw except for one minor issue. The mixer (the guy sitting on the console in the back of the concert hall) always started out the voice microphones too low and then would adjust them. I can understand making the mistake initially but he kept making this mistake a lot. NJPAC should get a better mixer.
What a great experience! We bought tickets for our family for Christmas. Eight of us, ages 19 - 78, all thoroughly enjoyed it! We were disappointed and a little perplexed at the low turn out for this event.
The symphony stole the show, the band was average. They were funny & friendly but their voices were not always on key. I loved the symphony so much, they really added a magic touch to the Beatles music itself. I saw Rain last year & it was a five star show! This felt more like a coverband. Luckily we didn’t pay too much for tickets. Also the arena was basically empty which was disappointing.
All musicians were extremely talented. Stepped back in time. They even did 3 encores, just like in the 60's!
Saw CMT with the Columbus Symphony. These guys are great singers and a couple actually look like the Beatles, ESP Paul McCartney. Loved the show. And you can tell they love doing it.
This was a very good show. The players were seamless with the orchestra. The crowd was transfixed back to the 70s. Their Encore was fantastic.
I watched this with a friend we both enjoyed it tremendously
The Columbus Symphony Orchestra was pronominal as always. The "Classical Mystery Tour" left a little to be desired. I would not go again and would not recommend it to my friends.
This tribute band is talented and do a good job of playing Beatles songs in very well designed costumes and hair that matched the period. They performed 26 songs, Beatles tunes with a few Lennon solos and early McCartney solos. The concentration of Beatles songs were from the later years with very few from the early Beatles. From the period of 1963 thru 1966 only 2 songs were performed which was disappointing. The songs were performed very well but it was almost a waste having the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra there as their contribution to the performance was regrettably minimal. A big waste of superb talent. This was compounded by the simply horrible sound mix that when the symphony was playing they were typically drowned out by the amplification of the Classical Mystery Tour band. The potential was there for a superb performance, it fell short.
great show! dancing in my seat. Will go again. Loved it.
The actor whom played John Lennon had all the moves and singing to the T. The actor whom played Paul McCartney was also great!! He also had Paul's moves and voice just as the originals especially playing the piano. George was superb playing the guitar parts and Ringo was great singing "Good Night" The BSO sounded great!
