Jason Michael Paul – the producer and creator of the first stateside FINAL FANTASY concerts, The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary concerts, The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses concerts, and Founder of JMP Entertainment – envisioned the “Heroes” experience to take audience members on a heroes journey, as set forth by Joseph Campbell's monomyth – a narrative framework that can be seen in many of the games, film, and books throughout history. Everyone’s story is the story of a hero, told through the amazing worlds of other heroes, in an unforgettable experience that is not to be missed. 

 

The music featured in the “Heroes” concert will pay homage to some of the gaming industry’s most iconic titles, including World of Warcraft, The Last of Us, FINAL FANTASY, The Legend of Zelda, Chrono Cross, Chrono Trigger, Portal 2, BioShock, Guild Wars 2, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, The Elder Scrolls: Blades, Fallout 4, Starfield, Castlevania, Metal Gear Solid, Halo, Mass Effect, Dear Esther, Journey, God of War, Dragon Age, Shadow of the Colossus, and more.

 

Paul has produced over 300 video game music concerts since 2004. He is a seasoned concert producer who is known for staging concerts worldwide for notable artists such as Luciano Pavarotti and the Three Tenors. For the “Heroes” concert series, a 70-piece orchestra will be joined by a choir to perform new arrangements of a variety of songs from multiple video game franchises. 

 

“We are thrilled to bring our extraordinary concert to the fans in Portland, Tampa Bay, Chicago, and Mexico,” notes Paul. “These shows give audiences an unforgettable experience that is part thrilling music, part video game fandom, part nostalgia. It’s an evening unlike any other.”
