National Geographic: Symphony For Our World Tickets

The National Geographic Symphony for our World performed wonderful music combined with videos of animals in their habits which were amazing. It seems impossible to get the footage and photos of animals, birds, insects and reptiles especially in the perfect manner that was shown. It was a treat to hear some of the interviews by photographers and conservationists. I hope it returns with similar visual and audio entertainment. Our Columbus symphony and chorus did an excellent job!

Picture had great color and the Symphony was outstanding

Suitable for regular symphony goers and novices like me.

I thoroughly enjoyed this program. Of course, the National Geographic photographers and videographers are amazing anyway, but when you put it together with music and a live symphony, it was truly awesome!

Being an amateur photographer I am always amazed by the quality of content with National Geographic photography. This being all video, set to live music, makes it even better. How they captured some of the images simply blew me away. The purpose of the show was to promote how fragile the planet Earth is and that we need to take care of it. There is a proper way of saving our planet without giving up our quality of life. All of the World’s leaders need to see this. Actually everyone needs to see this show.

Overall, the symphony was wonderful. The music was beautiful, and of course, the nature film was top notch. What I didn't like was - the pauses in the nature film to show the orchestra on stage. Ordinarily this would be cool, but the lighting on stage is so dark, that it was basically a dark square blob for 30 seconds - didn't add value. I'd much rather see more nature than a dark blob on the screen. The conductor of the orchestra took too many bows - literally between each piece, when he started, when he finished, and at every opportunity in between. There were too many starts and stops and bows. I would have preferred it if the pieces and film went straight through without as many pauses between sections. I have to reiterate that the music and film were spectacular.

The Nat Geo symphony that was held in San Jose Center for Performing Arts was a fantastic experience. Our friend gifted us tickets to the performance. It was amazingly well composed and blended beautifully with every single detail in the videos. The visuals were a bunch of videos and still clips. The whole concert was divided into five parts - sea, shore, land, mountains, and sky. The video/photo quality was excellent and the symphony was outstanding - in particular, the wind and strings sections. All in all, a must see, hear, and feel experience!

Fantastic show! I wish there was another hour of the gorgeous pictures and videos. The testimonials were excellent also. Everyone should see this show and see how much damage humans are making to our planet and the animals on it. Very, very sad and everyone should start making a change now. I would definitely see this show again!

There is a saying that "music goes straight to the heart." We witnessed the perfect marriage of human replication of nature's sounds with graphic art in vivid detail portraying a personal understanding of the world we are part of.

Symphony Silicon Valley was amazing and the NatGeo footage was fabulous as well. What wasn't the best - so many people arriving late and the ushers using lighting on the pathways for them - it was SO distracting. Also, the 8:00pm start time was way too late! On a Monday night, 7:00pm or 7:30pm would be far more appropriate.
