Nottingham Philharmonic Orchestra with film, TV and show music for all the family
Add to my Calendar 26-01-2019 18:00 26-01-2019 20:00 36 Family Concert - Heroes and Adventures! Our 2019 Family Concert will take you on an epic musical adventure to meet all your favourite heroes, both fictional and real-life, all depicted in fabulous music by John Williams, Elmer Bernstein, John Barry, James Horner, Elgar and Tchaikovsky! From high-tech superspies James Bond and Ethan Hunt in the themes from Skyfall, Goldfinger and Mission Impossible to swashbuckling Zorro in the theme for The Mask of Zorro. Nottingham is famous for its legendary hero Robin Hood who was immortalised by Korngold in the film The Adventures of Robin Hood, and real-life heroes will be remembered in Nimrod from Enigma Variations and the theme from The Great Escape. No concert of heroic music would be complete without a collection of film scores by John Williams and our programme includes Princess Leia’s theme from Star Wars, Superman and Raiders of the Lost Ark. All that plus Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture! Royal Concert Hall, Nottingham DD/MM/YYYYDetails
