A perfect performance of perfect arrangements
by DemonStray on 2025-09-09Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - EdmontonRating: 5 out of 5Francis conducted incredibly well for these symphonic arrangements of the Stardew Valley soundtrack. More importantly, the musicians performed flawlessly. Several multi-instrumentalists absolutely floored me, such as the banjo & sitar player who I believe also played acoustic guitar, someone playing keyboards such as celesta and synthesizer (separate from the wonderful pianist), and above all else, the girl playing double bass who also dominated the electric bass. The slap bass during Summer was transcendent. The chord variations from the original music were so refreshing and emotional. I couldn't contain my joy from showing on my face! Keep it up, gang. Some Proud Boy scumbag and his girlfriend got too drunk to be quiet, but I cannot reasonably fault the show for that.
