“They promised extravaganza, and boy, do they deliver!!! It is a memorable feast for the senses.”
Have you ever wondered what Mozart would do with a Fender Stratocaster hanging from his neck? How Bach would use banks of electronic keyboards?. What Beethoven will do with a bass guitar and Vivaldi with drums?
An amazing theatrical experience combining dance and humor with dynamic Rock interpretations of familiar classical hits of the past masters Mozart, Bach, Vivaldi, Beethoven and friends!
Five great musicians in period costumes along with a robust male Virtuoso and a stunning Soprano complete with 4 beautiful ballerinas perform to a background of projections and other visual effects. From the flying finger virtuosity of The Flight of the Bumble Bee to the delicate beauty of Swan Lake, Barockestra brings the classics of the past to the present. Something for everyone as familiar tunes, great arias and ballet give the Baroque treatment. Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news!

A glorious head-on collision between clasical and rock music. The audience love the same camp energy and entertaining exuberance as in We Will Rock You or The Rocky Horror Show.
The upbeat energy is tantalisingly infectious. Triumphant.
