Festival Radio France Occitanie Montpellier: Opening Film Music
Montpellier National Orchestra conducted by ChloƩ Dufresne - Place de l'Europe


Program Info:
On July 5, the festival invites composers who, under the baton of ChloƩ Dufresne, will remind you of the unforgettable music written to accompany the images, shots, tracking shots and zooms.
You know these composers without perhaps knowing their names. There is Max Steiner, the pioneer, the one who may have invented the genre with films such as King Kong , Gone with the Wind, Casablanca . James Horner is the author of the scores for Avatar and Titanic. John Williams? Remember: Star Wars , of course, E.T ., Jaws and many more. And then, the great classics of the previous century, those who wrote for the cinema without knowing it: Verdi, Mahler, Tchaikovsky.

As for Ennio Morricone, we owe him dozens of pieces of music for Bertolucci, Pasolini and of course Sergio Leone: who has forgotten The Good, the Bad and the Ugly ?

Once upon a time in the west? Treat yourself to a beautiful sleepless night on the black screen of the night sky of Montpellier!
