This evening marks the launch of the Octavarium Concept Tour! In the spirit of Octavarium, the band will perform two sets of 8 songs each, half of which feature beautiful string arrangements by Regressive Hypnosis keyboardist Marco Hoogerheide, performed by 2 violinists, 1 violist, and a cellist. That means 8 classic Dream Theater tracks and another 8 classic Dream Theater tracks – but even more special!
The new show revolves around the album Octavarium, which was released 20 years ago on June 7th. A daring, orchestral and very diverse album with an original and typical Dream Theater concept, where each track rises in key. Regressive Hypnosis plays a unique full-length live show based on said concept, where the 'black keys' (Fis, Gis, Bb, Cis and Eb) are not skipped. Expect the full spectrum of what Dream Theater has to offer: classics, epics, ballads, insane prog tracks and some special surprises!
