Heartwarming Orchestra from a Popular Anime
by Hikari on 7/26/23This was the most engaging, outstanding, and nostalgic symphony I ever went to! The show I went to included special performances by singer Hiroshi Kitadani and composer Kohei Tanaka who contributed to the original One Piece anime. I know this is technically an orchestra, but we were encouraged to sing along to some of the most memorable songs featured in the orchestra. The audience who came out for the show tonight were very loudly ecstatic that this felt more of a concert than an orchestra which I didn't mind at all since this is their first time here in America. My only ire was the merchandise which were very limited and highly demanded. I was hoping to purchase just only the program, but sadly the shop ran out. I hoped there is another opportunity to purchase the program, but I undeniably doubt these will be sold outside the venue. Anyways I fully enjoyed every song in the program that was performed for the soothing and heartwarming sounds and melody that has represented the anime One Piece for over 20 years and will still continue to support the series. I was extremely ecstatic for the once in a lifetime opportunity to sing along together to the songs played live and in-person.
