Échos D'hyrule Par Neko Light Orchestra - Tournée

Echos d'hyrule by Neko Light Orchestra arrives in Lyon

We are delighted to host Echos d'hyrule by Neko Light Orchestra in our Lyon hall, a date that promises a sweeping, cinematic evening dedicated to the musical heart of a beloved saga. From our vantage point backstage, the production reveals its meticulous craft: a rock-inflected symphonic ensemble aligning strings, piano, electric guitars, bass, drums, and ethereal voices, all framed by immersive lighting and evocative projections. The program celebrates iconic themes such as Hyrule Field, Gerudo Valley, Zelda's Lullaby, Song of Storms, Great Fairy Fountain, and the Breath of the Wild Main Theme, reimagined with symphonic power and rock energy. Expect the nostalgia of Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask to sit alongside the grand sweep of Twilight Princess and the lyrical beauty of Skyward Sword, with newer material inspired by Tears of the Kingdom woven in to reflect the saga’s living legacy. Our technical team has prepared dynamic soundscapes and clean sightlines to let each melodic motif bloom—harp-like piano arpeggios, rhythmic ostinati, soaring violin leads—so that every seat can experience the dramatic arc of the evening in full color.

Neko Light Orchestra’s current artistic momentum

Neko Light Orchestra arrives in Lyon amid a vibrant period of artistic activity, with their touring calendar filled by their signature “Echos” productions and a renewed focus on arranging recent game music for the stage. Their creative direction bridges concert hall precision with the immediacy of rock, a hallmark that has attracted a multigenerational audience—families, longtime gamers, orchestral aficionados, and soundtrack devotees. Alongside Echos d'hyrule, the ensemble has been cultivating the same hybrid language in other live projects that spotlight fantasy and pop-culture universes, refining a style marked by lyrical string writing, thunderous toms, and intimate vocal lines that carry thematic fragments like talismans. In the past months, the orchestra has unveiled refreshed versions of cornerstone Zelda titles—Hyrule Castle, Ballad of the Goddess, and Kass’s Theme among them—while also embracing motifs that listeners associate with recent explorations, from sweeping aerial cues to subterranean textures that recall the saga’s newest chapters. Their shows often travel with custom visuals and narrative pacing that turns a setlist into a journey: prelude, quest, solitude, encounter, battle, and dawn. In rehearsals, we’ve heard the ensemble lean into tempo rubato and dynamic extremes, making space for thoughtful solo features and delicate chamber passages before unleashing full-ensemble climaxes that rattle the rafters.

For the Lyon performance, we have tailored the stage plan to the production’s dramatic contour: multiple risers for layered orchestration, a central vocal zone to carry intimate moments like Zelda's Lullaby, and flanking positions for guitars and percussion that ignite rhythmic anchors in pieces such as Gerudo Valley or Song of Storms. The lighting plot will shift from twilight hues to crystalline whites as melodies migrate from harp-like textures to heroic brass voicings rendered on synth and strings. Fans can anticipate a narrative arc that moves between exploration, discovery, and triumph, with the Breath of the Wild Main Theme functioning as a connective thread and the Great Fairy Fountain as a moment of luminous repose. Our team has prepared for dynamic encores—often a spirited reprise where a motif returns transformed—and we invite audiences to bring their passion for the universe that inspires this concert: we regularly see tasteful cosplay, and we make room for quiet attention during the most tender interludes. With doors open well before the downbeat, guests will have time to settle in, meet friends, and feel the gentle hum that gathers before the first note. When the lights dim and the opening harmonies of Echos d'hyrule rise, Lyon will resonate with a world where memory, melody, and adventure converge.
