    Wow, What a great preformance! Between the preformers and the stories it really was an enjoyable experence!I really enjoyed the video on the pianists hands, our seats where balcony so the camera gave us the ability to see his hands.I would highly recomend this show.

  • A musical trip through American music

    Good narrative, good singing, a bit too much dancing, given the story. The orchestra sometimes overpowered the singers.

  • Outstanding!

  • Texas Tenors Terrific

    by koolkaak on 2/6/11Scranton Cultural Center - ScrantonRating: 5 out of 5

    Do you want to feel good? Then go to a Tenors concert. The Three deeply talented men include the audience in their presentation, throw in a mix opera and country and humor in the show. Even better in this show they performed with the Scranton Philharmonic the sound was superb. We can't wait to see them again.

  • NEPA Philharmonic was terrific

    It was a well diversified program. With the dancing, singing all complemented by the orchestra was amazing. The show was so entertaining I couldn't believe when it ended. From start to finish, it was a wonderful beginning to our families christmas season. I do hope that this will be offered again next year.

  • Fair

    Orchestra sounded fine we enjoyed the music and the choral but there was entirely too much talking by the director.

  • FANTASTIC

  • Absolutley Fantastic, BUT!!! Must Change...

    by lgtrt008 on 10/11/10Scranton Cultural Center - ScrantonRating: 5 out of 5

    I thought the show was absolutely fantastic. The guitarist who played George, yes I'm on a first name basis!, was one great player especially with the lead from "While My Guitar Gently Weeps". Hats off to the whole band and the Philharmonic. The reason I said "But" in the title, "I don't remember Ringo having a Yamaha drum set let alone having Yamaha written on the set!!!, also the roseewood Tele that George played should have been a better replica, it never had a black pickguard. I can not believe after all the fantastic work they put into the show and the exceptional workmanship musically they would let these two items slip through. All in all it was absolutely fantastic and brought back quite a few memories. I would definitely see if again.

  • Beatles Fans' Must

    by Jimsdrums on 10/10/10Scranton Cultural Center - ScrantonRating: 5 out of 5

    NEPA Philharmonic is amazing! I saw them a few times and they are always great! They started the show with a classical medley of Beatles tunes....this lasted about 10 minutes. Then the Beatles impersonators came out and played a few early classics in matching suits and ties from the "Meet the Beatles" era. They quickly changed into Sgt. Peppers outfits and continued with mid-60s classics. With backing from the Philharmonic, the music was very true to the original studio recordings. After a brief intermission, they retured dressed in outfits reflective of the more indiviualistic styles adopted by the band members near the time of their breakup. They played several late-era Beatles songs as well as a few from member solo careers. A thouroughly appreciative audience urged the band to play some encores and they willingly obliged. After the final curtian call and the house lights came up, and the near capacity crowd filed out, you can hear giddy conversation on how good the show was. The audience age range from 5 to 100 with every generation represented equally. The only low point for me was this: As soon as the band took the stage, my 5yr old daughter said "Daddy, whay are the all holding their guitars the same way?" I had no answer. Even a 5yr old knows Paul McCartney plays left-handed. For a band that goes through the effort to do the look with precise costumes, accents, and musicianship, I cannot understand how they choose to overlook this major item. You may think it might be hard to find a left-handed bass player, but that's not the case at all. As a musician myself I can tell you that for someone who already knows how to play guitar, it would only take him a few months to teach himself how to play with the other hand. This is really an inexcusable oversight for a band that strives so hard for authenticity. Otherwise the band was very talented and very cordial.

    If I had closed my eyes I would have sworn I was in New York City at the Met. What a tremendous performance!

  • northeast philharmonic- john williams

    by barharbor on 10/15/09Scranton Cultural Center - ScrantonRating: 4 out of 5

    I went to see the Northeast Philharmonic perform the music of John Williams. The show was fantastic. I love John Williams movie themes and the philharmonic hit all the right notes. They played music from a number of Mr. Williams movies in the first half of the concert, such as Superman, Jurasic Park, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and E.T. They sounded so good you could believe it was this orchestra that performed the original theme music. The second half of the concert was all Star Wars music. They performed songs from each of the six movies. This was also great fun. If there is a slight critical complaint, it would be I wished they played more of John Williams music from other films he scored. Minor complaint. Great show, see it if you get a chance.

  • John Williams at the Movies was absolutely dynamic

    by JULEST on 10/12/09F. M. Kirby Center - Wilkes-BarreRating: 5 out of 5

    I am an avid fan of the NEPA Philharmonic....especially the Pops series. I saw Lawrence Loh conduct the orchestra many times. I went 2 yrs ago when they played John Williams' music and loved it. This time was even more spectacular. The orchestra was at the top of their game! The first half was wonderful but only a warm up to the fabulous second half. I am a STAR WARS mom from its beginning 30 yrs ago. The sound was perfectly sycronized. I hope they will do this music again next year!!! Mr Loh is exceptionally talented and extremely personable....which lends to a great night for relaxation and entertainment!! Thank you NEPA PHILHARMONIC!!!!

  • NEPA: John Williams at the movies

    by dvfilms on 10/11/09Scranton Cultural Center - ScrantonRating: 4 out of 5

    If you're a fan of John Williams you're gonna love this. I was skeptical at first because John Williams himself wasn't conducting. I was worried that it would sound really close to the originals, but not exact. However, I have to say that all the little nuances of the original music were captured impeccably. I know those scores inside and out and I can tell you that if I shut my eyes it was like listening to the soundtrack on CD. It was that exact. The conductor was incredible. My only complaint and the reason I didn't give this a five star review is that I felt that the overall volume of the show was too low. They really needed to amplify the instruments but they didn't. And I'm not saying I need it ridiculously loud, but it needed to be louder. It seemed as if the Venue was too big for the sound, but it wasn't. Other then that it was a great show!

  • NEPA Philharmonic was awesome

    by ResilientSoma on 10/11/09Scranton Cultural Center - ScrantonRating: 5 out of 5

    The NEPA Philharmonic was amazing. The first half was different John Williams from different well known movies. After intermission, it was all Star Wars, which was amazing. It was if you were in the movie! And the musical director was very talented as he was funny. Overall, amazing!!! I took my six year old nephew and he loved it. GO!
