FalkirkBairn 0 Posted October 21, 2003 Share Posted October 21, 2003 Stefancos, I'm a bit late so you may have already gotten the info you wanted. But if you haven't here's a pointer.Head over to:http://www.teleticketservice.com/v2/main.h...?lang=en&page=1and scroll down to the bottom of the page and you'll find the entry for the concert on the 16th April 2004. It lists the range of ticket prices available. You cannot order the tickets online but have to telephone the "hotline" to arrange payment, etc. (they don't accept credit cards either).Go back to the top of the page and click on the "Practical Information" tab and follow the instructions in the "How to make a reservation by telephone" section. I phoned this morning and booked a couple of tickets (on the 2nd row!) and it was pretty easy. There are two phone numbers - a Belgium phone number (070/345.345) or an international number (+32-34-0000-34).They'll make your reservation then and take your postal address so that they can send you an information pack with details of how to pay (involves your bank). Once payment is received they'll send out the tickets...apparently.Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Awesome! I'm going to have a word with my dad tonight, and if all goes well, I'll be there on April 16th!!!- Marc, who really wants to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted October 26, 2003 Author Share Posted October 26, 2003 Just reserved a ticket.35,50 is not exactly cheap is it, i hope it's worth it..The Orchestra consists of 90 persons, but the choir has (only) 25.Stefancos- who has no idea how a Belgian choir is gonna handle the throathy, gutheral vocals of The Bridge Of Khazad Dum.

NeejaHalycon 0 Posted October 26, 2003 Share Posted October 26, 2003 Hey,I'm a huge LOTR fan, so could I get some background on this? Is it a once in a lifetime event? Or are there similar performances coming up in the U.S.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeejaHalycon 0 Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 Wow, that's great! What are people's feelings on the venues so far? Is there one performance that will probably be better than the others? (Besides the New Zealand one, which I have no chance of getting to.)

Bart 0 Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 Well,As I live in Belgium I can tell you that the Sportpaleis is indeed something like the Arena in Amsterdam. I think there are about 16000 seats, but if the 'middenplein' also has seats more ofcourse.I'm going to the Sportpaleis on november 11, for the Night of the Proms (don't know if you have ever heard of that, Stefancos). The soundquality isn't fantastic, but they have worked a lot on that the last couple of years.The Vlaams Radio Orkest is a well know orchestra in Flanders, but it is ofcourse not comparable with the LSO or something like that.I hope you enjoy the concert, and maybe I will go to!

NeejaHalycon 0 Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 The Seattle Symphony looks good, but if there's going to be an LSO performance, I'd like to try that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bart 0 Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 A bit more information for the one attending.In a Belgium magazine called 'Knack'.THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE SUITE.bla bla bla bla bla bla...Shore has adapted his own complex score to a symphonic suite in six mouvements. He'll conduct this suite with more than 200 (!!!) musicians and a liveprojection with the Flemish Radio Orchestra and a choir for the continental European premiere.

FalkirkBairn 0 Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 CoolStefancos- who still has not recieved his ticket for this concert.I was in contact with them the other week and the tickets had not been sent then. It didn't seem as they had any idea as to when they would be sent. All I was told was that when they are ready for dispatch then they will be shipped.And as with everyone else, I paid for my tickets ages ago - before they had the online booking system up and running. So it was bankers draft payment and that cost me an additional £20. Then there's the airfare to Belgium, and then the accommodation. I wish I had waited for confirmation of the London concert...that would have been much cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeejaHalycon 0 Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 Yeah, but it's always been part of the experience for me. Anyway, I'm trying to get to the May concert in London. If that fails, it will have to be Seattle in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
