SeraSymphony ~ In Concert
Sailor Moon is back and better than ever (Crystal rocks!!). But for those who grow up watching the iconic series in the 90s, we fell in love with the magic, the romance, and the music! In December 2013, iconiQ The Soundtrack Orchestra premiered SeraSymphony ~ The 20th Anniversary Orchestral Fan Tribute featuring composer Takanori Arisawa's original anime soundtrack and streamed it online for fans worldwide.
On Friday, October 10, 2014 (during New York ComicCon weekend) we will perform and record an extended SeraSymphony concert in New York City! In the name of the moon, we invite you to help us celebrate the accomplishments of this groundbreaking Japanese work!
iconiQ: The Soundtrack Orchestra is a musical nerdfest produced by musicians with an unhealthy addiction to animation. Founded in 2011 by Bobbie Lee Crow III, the Fractured Atlas-sponsored chamber orchestra tributes the soundtracks of anime, cartoons, and video games with a super-special-button-mashing combo of monthly medleys, live concerts, and interactive social events.

Why We Need Your Help
Putting on a live concert requires a lot of support! Just like Sailor Moon needs her guardians, we need YOU - fans of our music and the show - to consider making a tax-deductible donation. 100% of your contributions will go towards:
- Contracting of musicians (approx. $8000)
- Performance and rehearsal space rental (approx. $1800)
- Percussion instrumental rental and storage (approx. $1100)
- Arranging, recording, and synchronization rights (approx. $3000)
No amount is too small; every little bit counts! You'll be helping to promote fandom, live music, and introducing a new generation to the greatest part of ours! Special perks include a downloadable audio recording, 2 tickets to the performance, an invitation to a post-concert reception, and more!
** Should we surpass our goal, we will record and perform a new medley featuring music from the new Sailor Moon Crystal anime!
