Music plays a vital role in elevating any film production to the ranks of cinematic masterpieces. In this concert, we will pay homage to renowned film music composers whose works have forever transformed the landscape of cinema. With compositions by the legendary John Williams and Henry Mancini, both distinguished figures in the modern film industry, the evening promises to be a celebration of exceptional artistry. The repertoire will feature iconic songs from blockbuster films and beloved musicals, including the unforgettable Le Jazz Hot! from Victor, Victoria, as well as timeless themes from Mission: Impossible, Ben Hur, Pirates of the Caribbean and World of Warcraft.
