Classic " II" to be Performed Live at Weinberg

FREDERICK, Md., Wednesday, December 27, 2017 — Classic Live will return to the Weinberg Center for the Arts on Friday, January 19 with a concert presentation of “Led Zeppelin II.” The group’s groundbreaking second album will be performed note for note, cut for cut, followed by a selection of Led Zeppelin’s greatest hits. The event will begin at 8:00pm.

Tickets begin at $25 and may be purchased online at WeinbergCenter.org, by calling the Box Office at 301.600.2828, or in person at 20 West Patrick St. Discounts are available for students, children, military, and seniors.

Classic Albums Live takes classic albums from the 60s and 70s and recreates them live on stage - note for note, cut for cut. Using the world's best musicians, fans are treated to an exact replication of the album followed by a second set of the featured artist's greatest hits. Musicians are chosen according to their sound and their fit into a particular niche, be it David Bowie, Pink Floyd, , or The Stones. The album might require a sitar player, a children's choir, a string quartet or someone to ring the alarm clock. Whatever it takes, the musicians treat these revered albums like a score… the way a symphony orchestra treats Mozart.

This engagement of : Led Zeppelin II is sponsored by First Energy Foundation. A complete listing of artists and performers scheduled for the 2017-2018 season can be found at WeinbergCenter.org.
