Deep Blue mesmerized audiences by a completely new way, which was the combination of exotic dances, stunning image effect and unique performance style, the Australian band brings symphony closer to the public. In the concert, artists provided exquisite performances with a wide variety of different musical instruments like violin, guitar, cello, bass… and several popular songs such as “Hong Kong Western”, “Somebody I used to know”….

The music of Deep Blue was the unique mixture of classical music, Pop and film music. Another special feature was that Deep Blue used sound, light and image efficiently to express stories vividly. Deep Blue also performed rock songs dedicated to string-musical instruments, which was remixed from classical music of Australia and many other countries. With no conductor, no stand for instrument, the performance style of Deep Blue was extremely free, charming and vibrant. Particularly, audiences were surprised by artists performing while walking on stilts.  All was the effort of artists to give visitors the closest and deepest feeling of music.

For more information, Deep Blue was formed based on a project from 2006 to 2008 of Australian Research Council under the Queensland University of Technology. The project aimed to transform common symphony orchestra into a business model, which contributed to bring symphony closer to the public. This is the key to help Deep Blue succeed worldwide with broadcasted shows on TV and live shows across Australia.
