Groundbreaking soundtrack’s incredible fusion of orchestral, turntables, and electronics performed live
This masterpiece of film animation will be shown on a huge HD screen and will be accompanied by a unique fusion of live orchestra, turntables and percussion playing the music from the score and soundtrack.ย
After an eagerly anticipated and glowing sold-out world premiere at the historic Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, New York last March, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Live in Concert will be touring more cities around the world.
Reaction to the world premiere was overwhelming, with audience members saying โI loved it even more watching it with an incredible live orchestra.โ and โOne of the most incredible experiences I’ve had.โ
The one-of-a-kind show is ground-breaking in replication of the filmโs score and soundtrack, fusing elements of orchestral with turntables and live DJ, and electronics for a rare and bold live experience.
A Sony Pictures Animation film, directed by Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, and Rodney Rothman and written by Phil Lord and Rothman, the movie introduces Brooklyn teen Miles Morales, and the limitless possibilities of the Spider-Verse, where more than one can wear the mask.
The music score for the box office hit was composed by Academy Awardยฎย nominee, multiple Golden Globeยฎ-nominee and Emmy-winning composer Daniel Pemberton, known for his work on movies such asย The Man From U.N.C.L.E., Oceans 8, Enola Holmes, The Bad Guys, and Steve Jobs.
The hip-hop based film score contains original music, showcasing elements of heroism and resilience, all complemented by song contributions from industry greats Post Malone, Lil Wayne, Jaden Smith and Nicki Minaj.
โSpider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is one of my favourite scores Iโve ever written. Utilizing a full orchestra, crazy electronics, and unbelievable turntable scratching techniques amongst a million other things, it is so technically complex I never thought weโd ever be able to actually reproduce it in a live concert, but somehow, we haveโ,ย said Pemberton on the project.
Sony Pictures Animationโs Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse received great praise from critics and audiences for its ground-breaking visual style, characters, story, voice acting, and soundtrack. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the highly anticipated sequel, was released in theatres in June 2023.
Tickets to the Manila shows will be on sale on Saturday, November 25 via SMTickets.com and SM Tickets outlets nationwide. For more information, follow @WilbrosLive on social media.
