IGUDESMAN & JOO
CODA - THE FINAL NIGHTMARE MUSIC
20 Years of (musical madness with) Igudesman & Joo
written, composed, and conceived by Aleksey Igudesman & Hyung-ki Joo
 
Captivating audiences of all ages with their distinctive blend of musical prowess, humor, groundbreaking arrangements, and delightful chaos, Igudesman & Joo proudly present a spectacle that shines a spotlight on their extensive musical journey over the years. 
 
CODA also means the end of this musical journey: Following a year and a half of extravagant jubilations that would put even Gatsby to shame, this dynamic duo shall grace the stage for the last time at the close of 2025.
 
Now, the burning questions arise: What musical showdown will we witness? Will Mozart and Bond finally settle their epic duel? Will the enigmatic identity of Beethoven's Elisa be unveiled at last? And just how colossal were Rachmaninoff's hands, anyway?
 
Prepare for an evening of uproarious surprises that will leave the audience doubled over with laughter, catering to die-hard fans and newcomers alike. Plus, brace yourselves for some fresh additions, like rousing Puccini from his deepest slumber and ensuring he never dozes off again—an audacious feat to complement the riotous performance.
 
Naturally, everyone anticipates their very own rendition of "I Will Survive." Brace yourself as this beloved classic might just undergo one last transformation, taking us on a whimsical journey to the Far East.
 
In summary, by melding their beloved classics, cherished by millions on YouTube, with daring new additions, Igudesman & Joo aim to make this show either their absolute best or their most hilariously disastrous. The verdict, dear audience, lies in your hands with an interactive poll during the show. Regardless, one thing's for sure: the fun is practically guaranteed!
