In addition to Uriah Heep’s hits, the Rock in Symphony concert will also feature songs by bands such as Deep Purple, Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Europe, Guns N’Roses or Scorpions and others. Just a symphonic rock show, as it should be, including light choreography and a full rock band.

The Rock in Symphony rock symphonic concert show is on the program, which will take place from 8 p.m. in the O₂ universum. The most famous world rock hits of all time by bands such as Deep Purple, Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Scorpions, Survivor, Iron Maiden or Uriah Heep will be heard in original arrangements and performed by the Bohemian Symphony Orchestra Prague. A 60-member orchestra led by conductor and arranger Martin Šanda will perfectly connect the most famous Czech and foreign symphonies with the biggest rock hits!

“Rock in Symphony is a symphonic concert rock show in the truest sense of the word. This is not just another concert of rock hits in an orchestral arrangement, but completely original arrangements and 100% connection and connection of classical music and symphonies with rock hits. When writing arrangements, I put together songs that really connect with each other, that start from the same foundation, work with the same or similar harmony, melodiousness, have similar elements. This is the only way individual songs can work 100% and convey the right energy and emotions to the listeners. In the end, serious and rock music have more in common than we might think,” says Martin Šanda, chief conductor and director of the Bohemian Symphony Orchestra Prague, revealing that listeners will enjoy, for example, Bedřich Smetana’s Vltava in conjunction with Pink Floyd’s Learning To Fly or Beethoven’s Fatal in conjunction with Led Zeppelin Whole Lota Love. Everyone will be able to judge how successful the combination of rock and symphonies was already on June 24 at the O₂ universum.
