Get ready to jam as Crunchyroll and Town Hall are bringing a special concert to NYC next month to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the iconic anime series Cowboy Bebop!
COWBOY BEBOP 25th Anniversary Concert – The Music Feat. The Sinfonietta, is a special performance celebrating 25 years of everyone’s favorite space cowboy series.
“Nearly two generations of American television fans and music lovers have come of age listening to the composer Yoko Kannos deceptively funky, wildly eclectic soundtrack for Cowboy Bebop. Utilizing a hash of jazz, classical, country, reggae, prog rock, and art pop motifs, Yoko Kannos sound meshed perfectly with the masterful storytelling of Director Shinichi Watanabe. Nows your chance to party with Spike, Jet, Faye, Ed, and Ein at this celebration of all things Cowboy Bebop! The Sinfonietta, an acclaimed all woman and majority women of color orchestra led by conductor Macy Schmidt, will lay down the tracks and tear up the starways with live scored screening of scenes from the Anime, symphonic renditions of Yoko Kannos classics, and more big surprises!”

Cowboy Bebop premiered in Japan on April 3, 1998. An anime space western directed by Shinichirō Watanabe, it follows the crew of the Bebop as they hunt bounties and wealth across the solar system. It quickly gained praise for its sense of style, its captivating characters, engrossing musical score (featuring the legendary Yoko Kanno), and narrative.
The series’ jazz score has received much appraise, and has introduced many to the music genre who otherwise might not have given it a chance.
And Its Opening Theme “Tank” by Yoko Kanno & The Seatbelts Is Burned Into The Brain Of Every Anime Fan.
