An Intimate Acoustic Take on Pink Floyd in Albuquerque

Music and shadows are set to merge in an up-close setting as Albuquerque prepares to host the Concert in the Dark. The immersive experience features award-winning violinist Will Taylor, acoustic guitar, cellist Tony Rogers, and piano and vocals by Dave Madden, performing the iconic tracks of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon.

The production trades stadium volume for total darkness. The performance is completely acoustic, and the string players move directly through the space to offer what organizers describe as a personal serenade. Every seat in the intimate 100-seat room places the audience up close and personal with the performers.

Will Taylor Stages Dark Side of the Moon Performances

The evening begins and ends in darkness, accompanied by live music and poetry. For over 35 years, creator Will Taylor has staged these boundary-blurring performances, with an experience that has sold out over 50 times in Texas. Alongside the complete Dark Side of the Moon album, the setlist includes classic cuts like “Wish You Were Here,” “Comfortably Numb,” and “Mother,” interspersed with Taylor’s original compositions inspired by the timeless sounds of Dark Side of the Moon.
