The music recorded by The Beatles from 1966-1970 represents some of the most groundbreaking strides in popular music history, in terms of songwriting ingenuity, recording techniques and the establishing of different musical genres within pop music. Many of these innovative recordings were never intended to be recreated live.
Now in homage to this sensationally creative period in The Beatles’ career, Across the Universe brings these recordings to life with stunning detail and accuracy.
No wigs, no costumes. Across the Universe's intention is musical authenticity, assisted by world class orchestrations from live strings and brass.
Opening set by The Lonely Together
