攬住一抹月光，或是一襲晚霞；

彷彿從黎明聽見黃鶯婉囀，或從衷心漫美出一際花開的聲音。

優柔端雅到撕心斷腸，每一齣故事隨著旋律雕畫了江山歲月，也預言了青春消長。

將華語流行音樂之粹飾以大雅的妝點，以完整古典音樂編制重新架構，大玩樂家Masters Play創造樂壇融合與遊戲的驚奇定位，匯合了流行樂迷的歡喜，滿足了古典樂迷的挑剔。自2022首度頒演起至2023連續兩年，不僅造就完美口碑，也成為觀眾們於眾多演出中期待度最高的藝術勝想。

惟最優秀的作品與當代最佳演唱者能築起這幢如夢盛景。2024年陣容敬選了創造華語流行樂壇傳奇被號封為最懂女人心的詞曲創作大師小蟲之作品。並邀請華語盛世中公認嗓音最細膩綿長的溫柔女聲周蕙擔綱演唱。同台藝術家包括長榮交響樂團與天生歌手合唱團，以滿員編制共演。

國際指揮家簡文彬再度親自領軍大玩樂家Masters Play3，2024年2月即將三度燦爛衛武營歌劇院。

Moonlight's gentle kiss, adorned in sunset,

Dawn's first light, a warbler's tune, whisper of a blossom's heart,

From tender grace to sorrow's ache,

Each tale weaves time,

Tides of youth rise and wane.

Revamping and Adorning popular music with classical music elements, Masters Play is a unique fusion of music and gaming that has captivated audiences for two successive years, with the innovative approach pleasingly catering to both pop music enthusiasts and classical music aficionados. The roster includes selections from the repertoire of songwriting virtuoso Johnny CHEN, known for his keen understanding of feminine sentiments, and mesmerizing vocalist Where CHOU, celebrated for her tender and enduring voice. They are accompanied by the Evergreen Symphony Orchestra and the Natus Cantorum, both delivering performances with their full arrangements.
