On June 13, 2009, Bear McCreary and the BSG orchestra played a show at the California Plaza. There were some very special guests that helped Bear out as the night wore on. The show was fantastically theatrical in it's own right and it packed a stellar track set including:
A Distant Sadness
Precipice
Fight Night
Gina Escapes
Caprica
Gaeta’s Lament
Roslin and Adama
Wander My Friends
Dreilide Thrace Sonata No. 1
Baltar’s Dream
Dirty Hands
Lords of Kobol
Prelude to War
Kara Remembers / Heeding the Call
All Along the Watchtower
Encore:
Black Market
The night began with Bear's brother, Brendan McCreary and his band firing up the crowd with several pieces he composed for the series finale including
When Will the Work Be Done.Then it was Bear's turn and from the looks of things the BSG orchestra did not disappoint! Many of the songs performed are also on the track listing for the Season 4 Soundtrack. Although there weren't supposed to be any cameras present, several concert goers of course found a way to get video of just about all the songs played.
