Delirium - A Cirque du Soleil Live Music Concert

Video Title :	Delirium - A Cirque du Soleil Live Music Concert
Description :	Music: Cirque du Soleil - One Love (inspired by Pokinoï) PUSHING THE LIMIT OF ARENA PERFORMANCE Created and directed by Michel Lemieux and Victor Pilon, DELIRIUM is a multifaceted event of unprecedented proportion featuring Cirque du Soleil music remixed. Driven by an urban tribal beat and awe-inspiring visuals, musicians, singers and dancers transform the arena into joyous frenzy. DELIRIUM is the quest for balance in a world that is increasingly out of sync with reality. It pushes the limit of arena performance through technical magnitude, human introspection and creative prowess. DELIRIUM is an urban tale, a state-of-the-art mix of music, dance, theatre, and multimedia. Pumped by this re-energized Cirque du Soleil rhythm, DELIRIUM transports audiences into a universe of delirious sensory folly. TURNING MUSIC INTO MOTION For the first time in Cirque du Soleil history lyrics have been created for the instrumental tracks and real words integrated in place of invented language, bringing to the music a fresh poetic dimension. And also, for the first time Cirque du Soleil puts musicians and singers center-stage with their music as the driving force of this gigantic event. In all, 20 of Cirque du Soleil's most memorable musical moments originally created by René Dupéré, Benoît Jutras and Violaine Corradi have been re-mixed by Quebec producer, composer and arranger Francis Collard. The result is a hyper-energizing urban tribal beat that explodes with electronic sounds, percussions and world rhythms. THE STAGE AND PROJECTIONS This unique, large-scale event may be the most massive technical production ever created to tour arenas. 540 feet of projections dominate the scene - the equivalent in width of almost four IMAX screens - setting the stage for a colossal multimedia presentation. Images projected range from prerecorded visuals to manipulated live feeds that create interactions between the show and the audience. THE ARTISTS DELIRIUM showcases 36 talented and multidisciplinary artists which include 6 musicians, 6 singers, 12 dancers, 9 acrobats and 3 main characters. To heighten the musical experience, DELIRIUM is infused with acrobatic dances as well as classic Cirque du Soleil feats including aerial, acrosport and hand balancing acts. Amongst the featured musicians are percussionist brothers El Hadji Fall Diouf and Pape Abdou Karim Diouf of Senegal; keyboardist and band leader Ric'key Pageot; Italian-born percussionist Raffaele Artiglieri; Brazilian Italo-Cuban singer Dessy Di Lauro; Amanda Stott; Chad Oliver and Jennifer Hamady.

There is a CD ( wich is already in my collection = D )... and i dont think Delirium is going to come out very soon... maybe another tour and they will make it. You can find the CD on the cirque web page, amazon or Itunes (this last one has a remix of the song "One Love"... actually very good.)

Does anyone know if theres a DVD or music CD of this show? I have seen four cirque du soleil shows and this is, by far, the one I've liked the most, it just takes my breath away

i saw this before it came out national XD

Cirque is amazing. Absolutely breathtaking. I saw this show live when it came to my city and it completely blew me away.

I saw this show at the O2 in april this year...was absolutely amazing!!!! going to see Quidam in the Royal Albert hall next Jan! x

Why arnt they showing this show live anymore?! So glad i saw this before they shut it down :(

It is shut down from live I heard from one of my friends (who works internally at Cirque) that it was shut down because it wasn't grossing enough...it was considered one of their weaker shows so they cut it after it's European tour.

I love Cirque Du Soleil, I'm hoping to go see their vegas show with Criss Angel.

i saw them in regina saskatchewan

i was like 7 and saw verkai in second row center and loved it. deliruim just amazed me and the water wave part was the best.
