The Golden Age of Hollywood
London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Sir Antonio Pappano - Barbican Hall
Program Info: Relive the golden age of Hollywood with music by some of cinema’s most brilliant and influential composers.
The Music The influx to America of European emigré composers during World War II brought about a revolution in film music. Suddenly, top studios had the pick of richly scored, high-Romantic soundtracks that seemed to go hand in hand with the new fashion for lavish story-telling, and so the talented composers that scored them played an all-important part in the emergence of a Hollywood golden age. This concert will hark back to some of these epic scores, written by composers who changed the face of film forever. The Performers
From Star Wars and Superman to The Shape of Water and Notting Hill, the LSO has enjoyed a long, illustrious relationship with film music. A thrilling evening is all but guaranteed.
