Deep Purple

In July 2011, Deep Purple delivered a stunning live performance at the Auditorium Stravinski in Montreux, Switzerland, showcasing their enduring prowess with an orchestral backdrop. This concert took place after the band had released their studio album 'Now What?!' just a few months earlier in April 2013. At that time, Deep Purple was reveling in a rejuvenated creative phase, blending their classic hard rock sound with fresh elements. Interestingly, the Montreux venue has a long-standing relationship with the band, as it's where they famously recorded their iconic 'Smoke on the Water' after a fire incident during Frank Zappa's performance in 1971. This live recording captures not only the band's intricate arrangements but also the magic that live orchestral collaborations can create. It's a captivating reminder of Deep Purple's legacy and their ability to evolve while still honoring their rich history.
