What is Red Bull Symphonic?
Alternative music meets classical music in the first edition of Red Bull Symphonic in Jordan.
Red Bull Jordan is teaming up with Jordanian band Autostrad and Maestro Dr. Haitham Sukkarieh for a unique musical collaboration with Red Bull Symphonic, the event’s debut edition in Jordan!
So what’s Red Bull Symphonic?
The concept of Red Bull Symphonic is based on the unprecedented collaboration between a modern-style artist and a classical music director, together with a full-scale symphonic orchestra. The repertoire from the modern-style artist gets a symphonic rearrangement and the collaboration comes to life in a spectacular one-night-only performance, held at a unique and prestigious venue. Audiences will witness the process through bespoke content that tells the story of this collaboration between talents from different musical worlds, co-created and made possible by Red Bull.

Who’ll be taking the stage?
For Jordan’s first Red Bull Symphonic, we’re bringing none other than Jordanian talent and indie band Autostrad to play alongside the National Music Conservatory Orchestra, led by the brilliant Maestro Dr. Haitham Sukkarieh.
This exciting collaboration will give birth to a new and unique concept and sound for Autostrad, fusing both music styles and reimagining some of their greatest hits into timeless classical music accompanied by a 40-person orchestra, all taking place in the heart of Amman.
