Cancelled: Merregnon – Land of Silence
A symphonic saga by Yoko Shimomura. This concert is cancelled, but will be filmed for Konserthuset Play and launched this fall.
Merregnon: Land of Silence is the story of the orphan Miru, who embarks on an unforgettable adventure with her childhood friend Hikito and the trusty dog Mako. Their goal is to find out what is plaguing the Land of Silence, Merregnon.
The fantastical world is painted with beautiful images projected onto a big screen, captivating melodies and symphonic sounds. The story is by German author Frauke Angel and the music is composed by Yoko Shimomura, one of the most prominent video game music composers of our time. She composed the music for internationally best-selling games like Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy XV.
German producer Thomas Böcker is behind the idea. His past endeavours include the incredibly successful concerts of video game music such as Final Symphony and Symphonic Fantasies. He has said that Merregnon: Land of Silence is a symphonic tale of courage, perseverance, solidarity and above all, freedom.
