Worldwide Tour of The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses 2017 Comes to Memphis and Knoxville

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The 2017 tour dates have been announced for “The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses” coming Oct. 7 to the Orpheum Theatre in Memphis and Nov. 17 to the Knoxville Civic Auditorium in Knoxville.

Upcoming shows will feature a new piece from the newly released “Breath of the Wild,” an all-new movement from “Skyward Sword,” an updated overture, and the return of a classic piece that might just make some wishes come true.

Celebrating 30 years of virtual adventure and memorable soundtracks with live orchestral renditions directly approved by franchise producer Eiji Aonuma, “The Symphony of the Goddesses” is now in its fourth season. The two-hour concert comes to life with a 57-piece orchestra, 20-person choir, and a reimagined score that draws from recent and requested Zelda games, including “A Link Between Worlds,” “Twilight Princess,” and the remake of “Majora’s Mask,” while still paying homage to classics like “Ocarina of Time” and “A Link to the Past.”

The concert’s five-movement symphony regales ears with Nintendo composer Koji Kondo’s original music, recalling moments of Link conquering dungeons, running through forests, and struggling to decide what color tunic to wear. Throughout the evening, a video collage syncs up with the adventurous tunes to spotlight exciting moments from the venerable franchise.
