A historic moment for progressive metal: in 2024, GRAMMY® Award-winning Dream Theater celebrated their 40th anniversary as a band and the triumphant return of founding member Mike Portnoy. The world tour kicked off at London’s legendary O2 Arena – the first tour with the classic line-up in 14 years.

Quarantième: Live à Paris documents this extraordinary moment. Recorded on 23 November 2024 in front of an enthusiastic audience at the Adidas Arena in Paris, the band presents a spectacular set list spanning four decades: from classics such as ‘Metropolis Pt. 1’, ‘Pull Me Under’ and “Octavarium” to brand new songs from their highly acclaimed album ‘Parasomnia’ – the first with Portnoy since 2009.

The immersive Dolby Atmos mix and 5.1 surround sound on the Blu-ray transport you right into the heart of the Paris arena. Experience the complex rhythms, majestic keyboards and dizzying guitar solos in impressive spatiality. The high-resolution stereo mixes also offer crystal-clear transparency for purist listening pleasure.

This special edition in a high-quality digipak combines the complete concert experience on two Blu-rays with three audio CDs, making ‘Quarantième: Live à Paris’ an indispensable document of a reunion that shook the progressive metal world.
