2001: A Space Odyssey
Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal conducted by Ben Palmer - Place des Arts, Maison symphonique
Program Info: Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal Ben Palmer, conductor OSM chorus Andrew Megill, OSM chorusmaster
Embark on a philosophical journey with the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal and the OSM Chorus as they accompany Stanley Kubrick’s iconic sci-fi masterpiece, 2001: A Space Odyssey. This fusion of futurism and poetry takes you through humanity’s evolution, from prehistory to the space age, guided by an enigmatic alien monolith. As the sentient supercomputer HAL 9000 turns on the crew of the spaceship Discovery One, astronaut Bowman becomes the last survivor. He passes through a cosmic gateway and is reborn as a higher life form symbolizing the next stage of humanity’s evolution. Stunning visuals are brought to life by Johann Strauss’ Blue Danube, works by Richard Strauss and the captivating compositions of György Ligeti. A cinematic and musical experience you won’t want to miss!
This concert with screening is presented in collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery, Southbank Centre London, and the British Film Institute.
