Experience all the drama of favourite Hollywood films as violin sensation
Anne-Sophie Mutter performs works by the legendary John Williams,
composer of scores for Harry Potter, Jurassic Park, Star Wars and many
other cinematic classics.

Anne-Sophie Mutter’s sensational performances with the Berlin Philharmonic
as a thirteen year old caught the attention of John Williams. Over the
subsequent decades, they have been close musical collaborators, and
Williams’ Violin Concerto No.2, premiered in 2021, was written specifically
for Mutter. Williams himself conducted the world premiere at Tanglewood.

More experimental than a film score, but just as cinematic, the concerto
opens the way for an exhilarating display of Mutter’s virtuosity.
This concert also features a selection of iconic film music across the years,
selected and directed by Chief Conductor Simone Young. Lush, dramatic
and compelling, this is storytelling at its finest.
