Excalibur Opera

The concert event with international superstars of folk, Celtic and progressive rock

EXCALIBUR is the legend of all legends: created by a deity, predicted by a sorcerer and acquired by a king – an ancient mystery which is now unravelled by music. A very special access to this mystic story created the French composer, musician and producer Alan Simon with his project "EXCALIBUR". Simon invented a unique and successful symbiosis of rock, folk, Celtic and classical music that revives the saga around King Arthur and resurrects the legends.

The cast of this very special concert event is a real "Who is Who" of rock icons of the 70ies and 80ies: Alan Parsons, Johnny Logan, Les Holroyd of „Barclay James Harvest", John Helliwell of "Supertramp", Martin Barre of „Jethro Tull", members of Fairport Convention, Jacqui McShee from "Pentangle" and many more.

Over 100 musicians of different genres guarantee for an unforgettable and outstanding concert experience.

But EXCALIBUR is not only an event for the ears: an outstanding stage and light design, actors, swordsmen and dancers in medieval costumes as well as thrilling video sequences projected on gigantic screens, let the myth of EXCALIBUR appear in a new light and guarantee for a Celtic Rock Opera that gets under your skin.
