Mystery Ensemble on this programme:

— On this beautiful autumn evening you will feel like a hero of Tolkien’s fantastic universe, where elves, goblins, hobbits and dwarves dwell! Imagine: a historic, atmospheric cathedral filled with the acoustic sound of motifs from the legendary soundtracks… Fantastic, isn’t it? Rumour has it that several film composers, after hearing The Lord of the Rings in our performance, threw themselves into writing soundtracks for other films — hoping we would one day perform those too! We decided to think about it. Come and discover that the music of The Lord of the Rings in our performance is just as thrilling as the films themselves. It’s time to let this music into your heart and live an incredible adventure together with Mystery Ensemble!

Don’t miss your chance to get tickets for this atmospheric and utterly enchanting October concert!
