Event Detail

Minnesota Orchestra
Jack Wall, conductor
Tommy Tallarico, host

Experience the Minnesota Orchestra accompanied by game footage on giant video screens, as it performs the music of the most popular games from the beginning of video gaming to the present. Plus, there will be an interactive segment: selected audience members will play a game live onstage while the orchestra performs the music!

“A touring multimedia show that has already been seen by more than 250,000 people is playing at the world's finest concert halls — with the world's finest orchestras powering through some of the world's most popular video-game music. And it's attracting a decidedly different audience. There were more than children and teenage gamers … [there were] a lot of grandmas out there.”
