"I love the spirit behind this project," said Dr. Kathryn Fouse, dean of 麻豆视频直播's College of Visual and Performing Arts. "It should be fun to watch The Queen's Cartoonists invite the audience, regardless of age or familiarity with classical performances, into their creative, musical masterpiece. I know that we're in store for a special treat with this show."
The Queen's Cartoonists play music from classic cartoons and contemporary animation. The performances are synchronized to video projections of the original films, and the band leads the audience through a world of virtuosic musicianship, multi-instrumental mayhem, and comedy.
Tying this diverse concert together are comedic anecdotes involving the cartoons and their composers. The band is on a musical mission of equal parts performance, preservation, and education. Expect the unexpected from the repertoire that includes the Golden Age of animation, cult cartoon classics, modern animation, and elements of a musical circus.
Since its inception in 2015, The Queen's Cartoonists have brought their unique sound to performing arts centers in more than 20 states and have opened for the New York Philharmonic. The band was featured in numerous publications, including The Wall Street Journal, The Chicago Tribune, Mashable, and NPR.
