Although Thor doesn’t like these kinds of concerts, I assume I’m not the only one who likes the concept. 🙂

What triggered me to create this topic was the discovery of upcoming LTP concerts of Pinchcliffe Grand Prix, a classic Norwegian puppet animated film. The concerts will take place in major cities in Norway.

What do you think of LTP concerts?

[Nils Jacob Holt Hanssen]

Well, I’ve been to only one, for THE EMPIRE STIRKES BACK, which was a frustrating experience, as I reported here. Of course, I might have been especially unlucky with this one, due to a venue that’s unfavorable for such events (Oslo Spektrum), and a sound mix that did the live orchestral performance no favors, with the film sound basically drowning it.

So this experience didn’t exactly encourage me to go to more of these events, at least not to the ones done by Disney. Which would rule out some of those I actually WOULD be interested in, like more STAR WARS and INDIANA JONES, if I could trust that I would hear what the orchestra is actually doing. Not sure if this is a problem only at Disney-run events. Hopefully it is.

I did see two if I remember right. Pirates of the Caribeann and a few years ago Star Wars. The 2nd indeed lacked a bit thte same acoustic venue issue but nevertheless it was nice.

Probably not fitting but I did see some silent movie with live music as well which I prefer.

Two “live to picture” concerts I have attended that were splendid:

KOYAANISQATSI
FANTASIA 2000

I’m sure because these movies are basically just images and music, they lend themselves to these types of concerts more than movies with lots of sound effects and dialog.

[Thor Joachim Haga]

As Sigbjørn says, I don’t like them. Not really concerts, more like fancy moviegoing experiences.

But I’ve seen a few whether I like them or not, as they’ve been part of a festival programme. PERFUME: THE STORY OF A MURDERER, KON-TIKI and GLADIATOR come to mind.
