GACKT Official X update. Translation below
This true fusion of rock and orchestra is not as easy as it sounds.
It’s a challenge that many bands have tried in the past.
But in the end, while the recordings can often be edited, the live stage is unbalanced and the result is not what you expected.
Of course.
It’s impossible for a single PA engineer to balance more than 70 players in a venue with people entering and the sound environment changing.
That’s how much the compatibility of the instruments used in orchestras and rock conflicts on stage.
This time, we set aside a month of rehearsals for just one day of performance, and after trial and error and adjustments, we were able to realize the best live stage.
No one can imitate this quality.
It would have been impossible to achieve without more detailed adjustments in rehearsals than we had imagined, but we are truly grateful to the members and techs who stuck with us until the end.
We intend to make this a tour in 2026.
Please look forward to this truly unimaginable fusion of rock and orchestra, [Maou Symphony].
It will defy your expectations and greatly live up to your hopes.
