Black Symphony

Experience one of the most breathtaking live productions in symphonic metal history with Black Symphony by Within Temptation.

Recorded on 7 February 2008 at the Ahoy Arena in Rotterdam, Black Symphony captures a truly one-off, large-scale concert event that pushed the boundaries of live performance. Joined by the world-renowned Metropole Orchestra, featuring more than 60 musicians, and the powerful Pa’dam Choir, Within Temptation transformed their music into a sweeping symphonic spectacle.

Blending the intensity of metal with the grandeur of a full orchestral and theatrical production, this unforgettable performance elevates the band’s most iconic songs into a cinematic experience. Every track is reimagined through rich orchestral arrangements, adding depth, drama, and epic scale.

The concert also features stunning guest appearances by Anneke van Giersbergen, Keith Caputo, and George Oosthoek, bringing additional vocal power and emotional range to an already monumental show. Black Symphony is finally available again on (double) CD.
