Big in Japan
Trondheim Symphony Orchestra conducted by Nick Davies - Olavshallen
Program Info: Trondheim Symphony Orchestra Trondheim Symphony Opera Choir Nick Davies conductor
From My Neighbor Totoro to Final Fantasy. Many of us love Japanese popular culture with all the wonderful worlds we are invited into. In Big in Japan, the Trondheim Symphony Orchestra makes musical contributions to various parts of the Japanese popular cultural treasure trove. Welcome to an evening for all of us who love Japan!
Do you also love the universe that Studio Ghibli has created, have you worn out your game controller on games like The Legend of Zelda and Final Fantasy, or maybe you love cosplay and manga? After the USA, Japan is the country that influences and engages us the most in film, TV and other popular culture. Music is often an important part of this culture, and we take that seriously in Big in Japan.
In this concert, we offer hand-picked works from animation gems such as Spirited Away and Escaflowne, to beloved anime TV series such as Fairy Tail and Demon Slayer. The concert also includes music from legendary games such as Final Fantasy, The Last Guardian and The Legend of Zelda. Everything is performed by the Trondheim Symphony Orchestra and the Trondheim Symphonic Opera Choir.
In short – this evening is dedicated to all of you who love what is Big in Japan!
