One Piece Concert in London

 A concert dedicated to the music soundtrack to the hugely popular anime One Piece was held at London's Cadogan Hall on Saturday February 7 2015 at 8 p.m.

The music was played by Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra, chief conductor Jean Thorel. and the anime series composer Kohei Tanaka.

Cadogan Hall is situated close to Sloane Square stations, a fairly intimate venue getting the most out of the audio and screen displaying clips from the anime.

Ticket prices varied from £35 for a standard ticket to more for a VIP meet and greet with chief conductor Jean Thorel. and the anime series composer Kohei Tanaka. It was a brilliant performance which saw Tanaka play the piano to songs and even sing along. Before each group of songs he introduced them and engaged with the crowd and commented on the great cosplay too.

One of my favourite parts of the set was Tanaka playing and singing along to Brook's song 'Bink's Sake which got a lot of the audience singing along and clapping with joy. This is the third type of concert I have attended of game music and possibly my most favourite.
