The Kentucky Center presents The Dark Side of the Wall with Orchestra Enigmatic – Saturday Feb 2 at 8 PM – Brown Theatre


There is no doubt that Pink Floyd wrote timeless songs. As each generation has “discovered” their music, the band’s catalog continues to be cemented as modern classics. What separated Pink Floyd from other bands of their time was a fearless attempt to bring the audio production itself into the experience of the listener. Using a palette of sounds that included spoken words, clocks, natural sounds, and otherworldly synthesizers, Pink Floyd was always pushing the envelope to create something that sounded new and different. It was, therefore, almost inevitable, that Pink Floyd would dabble in orchestral instrumentation to round out their psychedelic rock sound. To recapture and extend that unique approach, The Dark Side of the Wall has partnered with Louisville’s Orchestra Enigmatic to present a new and expanded sonic experience. Join two of Louisville’s top musical groups as they join forces and tear down musical walls to bring an even bigger sound to a timeless catalog!
