The Columbus Symphony Orchestra was amazing, and Peter Sutton was a great soloist.
I bought tickets to this show for my wife and I's 1 year anniversary. We both absolutely loved it. The show combined the orchestra and choir along with Tim Burton sketches and clips from the actual movies on a big screen at the back of the stage. The whole show was great from beginning to end. The music alone was worth it, but the addition of the sketches and movie clips was icing on the cake. I highly recommend this show for fans of all ages. Would definitely go to again.
The concert music with the conept art and film clips was well choreographed and excuted. Really enjoyable evening.
Great experience. You got to see some of the concept sketches and skits from the movies. Really well done. Good variety of Elfman/Burton's music and brains. :)
Love hearing movie music performed live and in concert! Would love to have the music from the Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, or Star Trek sometime in the future too!
I can't believe how many blockbuster movies Danny Elfman has scored for Tim Burton. And many are so diverse, that I had forgotten that Danny had composed these like "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" & "Planet of the Apes". This concert was great because while John Mauceri was conducting the orchestra we got to see video clips from the movie that was being musically highlighted. And what added to the visual experience was the storyboards that were shown along with the video clips. This video montage really made the music come alive unlike never before. One of my favorite films featured was "Batman". The music for this movie is as big a part of the movie as the acting & cinematography. And hands down my favorite film of the night was "The Nightmare Before Christmas". The best part was when Danny walked onto the stage & sang the part of Jack Skelington. And the moment to die for was when he shouted "… And I Jack, the Pumpkin King ..." during the singing of "Jack's Lament" from the movie. I could not think of a better way to spend the night before Halloween.
