The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Concert Pictures and Videos!
Posted on October 22 2011 by Jesse McCarty
If you were one of the few among us that were actually able to get your hands on a ticket to go to the 25th anniversary concert at the Pantages Theater in Los Angeles than this may look familiar to you, but for those who weren’t as lucky I think this will be as close as we get! The Symphony Concert started at 8pm on the 21st and a ton of fans finally heard what we have all been waiting for. As always with any exciting event pictures and videos can be found across the net.
The concert featured a 70 piece orchestra and live choir and I seriously wish I could have witnessed this amazing event, but sadly I missed out and will have to catch it when the tour starts next year. Curious about how it looked and how it sounded I started looking for reviews of the concert, but couldn’t find one. I imagine it went pretty well and no one was disappointed though. Be sure to make the jump if you would like to check out some of the pictures I found thanks to GoNintendo and the only video on youtube I could find.
On Oct. 21 at the historic Pantages Theatre, new symphonic arrangements of songs from the fan-favorite Nintendo franchise will be performed by a 70-piece orchestra and a live choir, spanning a quarter-century of memorable musical themes. Attendees will also enjoy hands-on demos of the latest video games in the Zelda series: The Legend of Zelda™: Skyward Sword, which launches exclusively for the Wii™ system on Nov. 20, and The Legend of Zelda™: Ocarina of Time™ 3D for the Nintendo 3DS™ hand-held system.
Produced by Jason Paul Productions, Inc., producers of the renowned PLAY! A Video Game Symphony concert series, the L.A. concert will be followed by a full tour in 2012. The rich storyline and adventure-based game play of The Legend of Zelda have attracted fans around the globe since the series launched in 1986, selling more than 62 million games worldwide.

Keep in mind it has not even been a full day and recording of the concert was not allowed so this was the only footage I could find anywhere. If you can find something better I can update this post with a better video. Just post the link in the comments below and please no spam!
Again sorry I could not find better videos of the concert, but again recording was not allowed and these individuals went out of their way and took the risk of getting caught and for that I thank you! I’ve been wondering all morning how the concert went and finally can get a glimpse of how amazing it was. If you can find any videos of better quality of the concert please let me know. So what did you think of the pictures and videos? From what we could find was it how you pictured it or did you think it was going to be better? Were you actually lucky enough to watch it in person?
