Serj Tankian, a Grammy Award winner and one of rock's most unconventional frontmen, will perform Elect the Dead Symphony — a very special orchestral interpretation of Tankian's critically acclaimed solo debut Elect the Dead — for a series of very special live shows to take place this summer. Tankian will recreate Elect the Dead Symphony — which had its dynamic inaugural performance at New Zealand's majestic Auckland Town Hall with the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra in March 2009 — with some of the finest orchestras in Europe, including the Czech National Symphony Orchestra, The Polish Radio Symphony Orchestra, and Italy's Orchestra Filarmonica Italiana.
