Classic Albums Live is a concert series based in Toronto, Ontario, where musicians perform classic albums in their entirety. The musicians go to great lengths to faithfully recreate every sound on the original album. The shows are treated like recitals and showcase the album which is then followed by a “greatest hits” set of the featured artists.
Classic Albums Live started in 2003 and have since performed with orchestras, sitarists, choirs, and schools. The series was founded by Craig Martin, a musician who had previously produced a series of boutique cabaret shows as well as composed music for television and film.
Classic Albums Live: Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon will light up the Lincoln Theatre on Saturday, Feb. 29 at 8 p.m. Tickets start at $25 and are available for purchase in-person at the CBUSArts Ticket Center, online at www.capa.com or by phone at 614-469-0939.
