Queen Symphonic Spectacular

With over 300 million albums sold worldwide, Queen are one of a select few truly iconic British bands that can claim to be a supergroup. With over four decades of music and 18 number one albums to their names, they are recognized as one of the most influential rock bands of all times.

2008 saw the launch of a new concert celebrating the music of Queen, which gave fans the opportunity of hearing these classic songs as never before. The Music Of Queen – A Rock & Symphonic Spectacular, features full rock band and stars from the West End smash hit musical We Will Rock You, Featuring the Western Piedmont Symphony A 60-piece symphony orchestra, performing epic arrangements of Queen’s music.

“Stunning” and “awesome” are just two of the words which have been used to describe this concert experience and composer Richard Sidwell has done an incredible job in expanding original Queen arrangements into a completely new symphonic score.

With over seventy performers on stage this has to be one of the biggest rock shows on earth, featuring all of Queen’s classic hits including:
A kind of Magic, Bohemian Rhapsody, Radio Ga Ga, We Are The Champions, Somebody To Love, Who Wants To Live Forever, Killer Queen, Don’t Stop Me now, Fat Bottomed Girls, I Want It All, and many more.
