ST. LOUIS, MO, July 21, 2012 (Press-News.org) Lena Leclaire, a performer and music educator with STL Ocarina, performed with the San Diego Symphony during its July 12 concert, THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: SYMPHONY OF THE GODDESSES.
THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: SYMPHONY OF THE GODDESSES began with pre-concert festivities for Comic Con devotees and fans of the popular video game series, "The Legend of Zelda." Zelda fans dressed as their favorite characters, entered a costume contest to win special prizes, and played their favorite Zelda games on GameStop Wii consoles. The concert highlighted the enduring work of Nintendo composer Koji Kondo and included a stunning cinematic video presentation in concert with soaring sounds of the San Diego Symphony.
The concert was part of a series Nintendo America is organizing around the country featuring music from "The Legend of Zelda." The games have helped spur a worldwide revival of interest in the ocarina, a pocket-sized wind instrument with roots in ancient cultures. Thursday's concert coincided with Comic Con July 12-15 in San Diego. For more information on the series, visit http://www.zelda-symphony.com/schedule
