Five world-class vocalists backed by a full symphony orchestra, an electrifying rock band and a choir take music itself to electrifying new heights. The anthems of Queen and Journey meet the odes of Beethoven. The power ofZeppelin merges with the poetry of Puccini. The greatness of The Who blends with the grandeur of Strauss. This is the one-of-a-kind sound of ROCKTOPIA. The cast met the press this week. See photos from the rockin' event below!
