Within Temptation’s most ambitious staging to date, Black Symphony was a unique concert at Rotterdam’s Ahoy Arena on February 7, 2008 sold out months in advance. Within Temptation performed to 10,000 fans with the 60-piece Metropole Orchestra and a 20-voice classical choir, as well as on-stage stilt performers, costume changes, and an array of stunning pyrotechnic and lighting effects. The colossal production extended to Europe’s largest video screen reaching across the entire width of the stage, and 14 full HD cameras. Special guests on the night included Keith Caputo (ex-Life Of Agony who is featured on their single “What Have You Done”), Anneke van Giersbergen (The Gathering), and George Oosthoek (Orphanage). Kerrang! magazine awarded the concert it’s highest 5K rating and described it as “the best show on earth.”
