Marvels of the Saudi Orchestra in AlUla is set to put on an exceptional performance that reflects the beauty and diversity of Saudi music. The culture-focused event is hosted by the Music Commission under the supervision of the Ministry of Culture to showcase the country’s commitment to developing the thriving music scene in Saudi Arabia.
Featuring over 100 Saudi musicians and performers to spotlight the Kingdom’s rich cultural and musical heritage, Marvels of the Saudi Orchestra is always the talk of whatever town it’s being hosted in. So, naturally, we can only imagine how excited the AlUla crowd is to welcome the major production for the very first time.
Music Commission CEO Paul Pacifico has previously said that the “Marvels of Saudi Orchestra” initiative aims to elevate national music to new horizons, make it accessible to all, foster intercultural dialogue, and build bridges of understanding between people.
The show has previously been opened with a breathtaking rendition of “Ana Min Hala Ard,” a song that’s very near and dear to the Saudi heart. The show also featured the traditional Saudi song “Addait Fi Al-Marqab” and Adele’s global hit “Rolling in the Deep.”
Previously, the orchestra has performed at renowned venues in Paris, Mexico City, New York, London, Tokyo, and, of course, Riyadh.
Tickets for the performance have already gone live and cost SAR800 for bronze, SAR1,000 for silver, SAR1,300 for gold, and SAR1,875 for the premium box.
