Don’t miss this LIVE WORLD PREMIERE event, as the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra performs the sensational soundtracks of PlayStation games, within the iconic surroundings of London’s Royal Albert Hall.
Featuring favourite themes from chart-topping games, including: Shadow of the Colossus, The Last Guardian, Uncharted, Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture, LittleBigPlanet and Horizon Zero Dawn, this exhilarating live show – with a full symphony orchestra, guest presenter and spectacular light display – takes you on a musical journey from vast deserts and overgrown ruins, to ancient artefacts and futuristic landscapes, celebrating some of the most memorable gaming music from the past 20 years.
MAGStock is a 4-day outdoor festival celebrating camping, video games, and video game music.
Video games like Final Fantasy or Angry Birds are a hit. As complex and multi-layered as the games is their music. Wonderful orchestral suites and new soundscapes that have nothing to do with the Gameboy sound will inspire gamer and classical music lovers alike and provide for goosebumps moments.
