The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses

The Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and MGP Live welcome Pittsburgh back to Hyrule on Thursday, December 14 when “The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses” returns to Heinz Hall, featuring a new piece from the recently 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 stirring 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 such classics as 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.

Tickets for the Heinz Hall date go on sale to the public March 21 at 10 a.m., and range in price from $30.75 to $105.75. Tickets will be available online at pittsburghsymphony.org/Zelda, by phone at 412-392-4900 or in person at the Heinz Hall Box Office, 600 Penn Ave., downtown Pittsburgh.
