The Music of Queen at the Blaisdell!



Friday night at the Blaisdell Concert Hall.
The music of Queen, with the Honolulu Symphony partnering with Windborne Music in a rollicking show of Queen's great music with the classical orchestra and rock band supporting each other.

Brody Dolyniuk sang the part of Freddy Mercury so well, and Brent Havens conducted the orchestra.  Four other band members completed the Windborne music's group.

Hearing Bohemian Rhapsody, Who Wants to Live Forever, We Will Rock You, We Are the Champions with the symphony orchestra behind the rock band was riveting.  The lead singer was energetic and entertaining throughout the 18 or so songs presented.  The audience loved it!   Not much space for dancing in the aisles, though.
Wish I could've seen Metallica partnering with the San Francisco Symphony in 1999!
