Their first official performance will be held on Sunday, October 6th (5 PM) at The Wayne Densch Performing Arts Center in Sanford, Florida. “Dancing Mad: A Final Fantasy VI Tribute,” pays homage to the legendary RPG soundtrack composed by maestro Nobuo Uematsu. Rebecca Tripp, the Tribute’s arranger, is providing stunning visuals which will be projected from a massive screen above the ensemble. Piano virtuosa Kara Comparetto and symphonic metal guitarist Chris Valenta will be the featured soloists on a program consisting entirely of world premieres.
