Event Details: KEVIN ZAKRESKY conductor  From the producers of "Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses" comes "Heroes: A Video Game Symphony", a celebration of music from the world's most iconic video games. Heroes Symphony takes you on a hero's journey, as set forth by Joseph Campbell's monomyth; a narrative framework that can be seen in many of the games, film, and books throughout history. Each stage in the monomyth is a chapter in our story, and each game/musical selection was chosen primarily for its suitability for the chapter that it is featured in. In this way, our story is the story of a hero, told through the amazing worlds of other heroes, in an unforgettable experience that's not to be missed.
