In the 1980s, Trans-Siberian Orchestra creator Paul O’Neill was on a trip through the Russian region of Siberia where the famed Trans-Siberian Railway makes its way from Moscow to Vladivostok. Travelers can make an epic voyage with ever-changing scenery as the train traverses through rugged mountains, untamed forests, rolling plains, busy metropolises, majestic river valleys and along the Pacific coastline.
Much like the train, the Trans-Siberian Orchestra takes concertgoers on a sweeping journey through a wide range of music, shifting effortlessly between thrash metal renditions of holiday classics, to rock ‘n’ roll, classical, R&B, blues, jazz, folk and opera — all played as the soundtrack behind a narrated storyline and performed with grand special effects including explosive fire, mystical snow, elaborate lasers, rising platforms, digital projections, fog and smoke.
