Nintendo Unveils Epic Legend of Zelda Orchestra Concert - A Symphony of Hyrule's Finest Tunes!

The Nintendo Zelda: Orchestra concert was scheduled to take place during the canceled Nintendo Live 2024 Tokyo event, and now the company has confirmed that the same will be streamed live on YouTube on February 9. It will be an hour-long concert one, including a performance by the play's orchestra.

The concert was to be part of the Nintendo Live 2024 event, scheduled for December 16-17, 2023, and January 20-21, 2024 in Tokyo. However, in early December, Nintendo announced that the sessions had been canceled due to security concerns.

The company has now confirmed that two concerts planned for Nintendo Live 2024 will appear on its YouTube channel. In the announcement made in X, the official Nintendo of America account said that The Legend of Zelda Orchestra Concert will air on February 9 at 5 am PT / 8 am ET / 1 pm GMT, and will have advance video recorded the entire show.

And now, Splatoon 3 will be released on February 10 instead of the Deep Cut Concert, with Nintendo saying: “It will be posted on Nintendo’s official YouTube channel so you can watch it at home”.

Nintendo has announced that Nintendo Live 2024 is being canceled (and a separate Splatoon tournament) due to ongoing threats targeting its employees. The company said it decided to cancel the meetings because it could not adequately ensure the safety of its customers.

“Our company continues to experience threatening practices that target our employees,” Nintendo said in a statement in December (translated by VGC contributor Robert Cefazon).

“These threats have recently been extended to spectators and staff of the Splatoon Koshien 2023 National Finals. Considering the safety of our customers is paramount, we have decided to postpone the event.”

“Nintendo Live 2024 Tokyo has been canceled due to our inability to ensure the safety of our customers,” it added.

Conclusion: Nintendo's announcement of the Legend of Zelda Orchestra concert is a testament to the company's commitment to providing fans with immersive and memorable experiences with live orchestral performances, visuals spectacular and unique collections combine to make this concert a must-attend series for any fan of The Legend of Zelda.
