Arundel Festival - Sound of Queen

SOUND OF QUEEN WILL ROCK ARUNDEL CASTLE

The second night of the Arundel Festival Castle Concerts has been confirmed and fans of iconic band Queen will be delighted to hear that the music of Queen will be performed in the spectacular Castle setting on Saturday 23rd August 2008.

The Music Of Queen - A Rock & Symphonic Spectacular, features full rock band and stars from the West End smash hit musical ‘We Will Rock You’, combined with the 60-piece English National Orchestra, performing epic arrangements of Queen's music.

Performed in a new, innovative and outstanding way with over seventy performers on stage this has to be one of the biggest rock shows, featuring all of Queen's classic hits including: A Kind of Magic, Bohemian Rhapsody, Radio Ga Ga, We Are The Champions, Somebody To Love, Who Wants To Live Forever, Killer Queen, Don't Stop Me Now, Fat Bottomed Girls, I Want It All and many more.

With over 300 million albums sold worldwide, over four decades of music and 18 number one albums to their names, Queen are recognised as one of the most influential rock bands of all times.

"Stunning" and "awesome" are just two of the words which have been used to describe this concert experience and composer Richard Sidwell has done an incredible job in expanding original Queen arrangements into a completely new symphonic score.

Keith Louch, Director of IML Concerts, said, “We are delighted to have secured this performance as it is only appearing at a few outdoor venues around the UK this year. There is no doubt that with the success of ‘We Will Rock You’ in London the music of Queen is still as popular today as 20 years ago. I urge everyone to experience this extraordinary show, it is truly spectacular.”

Gates open at 5.30pm with the programme commencing from 7.30pm. There will be a spectacular firework finale at approx 10.30pm.

Tickets: Adult £30 / Child (ages 5-15) £20 / Under 5 years free.
