Stewart Copeland’s Police Deranged for Orchestra is a high energy orchestral evening celebrating the work of legendary rock star and composer Stewart Copeland and focuses on his career in music that has spanned over four decades.

Copeland is a unique figure in world music: renowned as the founder of The Police, a band that became a defining force in rock music from the ‘80s through to the present day.  

In addition to being one of the most influential musicians of the modern age, he is also a seasoned and prolific composer in opera, ballet and orchestral music as well as extensive soundtrack work for film and television.

This concert will be an evening bursting with The Police’s biggest hits including ‘Roxanne’, ‘Don’t Stand To Close To Me’ and ‘Message in a Bottle’.

In Copeland’s words: “Delving into the multi-tracks of our original recordings and live performances revealed lost guitar solos, bass lines, and vocal improvisations that were just too cool to leave in obscurity… this discovery is what brings us to this performance: Sting’s songs, Andy’s inventions, and my impunity; all on the page for a wild ride with orchestra and unique musicians from around the world.”

With Copeland himself on drums, three singers, a guest guitarist, and an orchestra, this night in Miner Auditorium will be a unique and unforgettable concert experience.
