Eminence: ‘Last Goodbye’
As we’re all well aware by now, taking place after SMASH! will be an unmissable performance by the world-renowned orchestra Eminence. Specialising in music from various games, animation and movies, the orchestra has plenty on which to pride themselves, taking a unique spin on classical music arrangement & performance. And the wait for Australian fans has come to an end!
For this concert, the orchestra will fly in several of their finest musicians to form a unique ensemble which will be performing pieces from various titles of both Square Enix and Studio Ghibli, fans of which definitely shouldn’t miss out. But wait … THERE’S MORE.
Introducing Last Goodbye, Eminence’s newest project, which will be having its debut in the very same concert! This project incorporates a new short animated feature, fully backed by Eminence’s live instrumental soundtrack and special vocals. The touching story and musical score has been especially animated, composed and arranged to be viewed and enjoyed for the very first time at the concert, and covers the themes of youth, relationships, and of moving on (you can think of it like an amazing AMV to an even more amazing live orchestra!).
To see special preview shots of the animation from Last Goodbye, head over to our Flickr or our FB album. And if you haven’t already, check out the list of Eminence’s finest works, their Greatest Hits so far, that we gathered up recently for your listening enjoyment
