Beneath Silver Skies

Music of the Silver Screen

Join us for a colourful tribute to the special role music plays in cinematic storytelling. Experience exhilarating scores spanning from Out of Africa to James Bond, and from The Lord of the Rings to How to Train Your Dragon.

Also on the program is the enchanting tone poem, Harold in Italy, by the maestro of musical magic, Hector Berlioz. His ground-breaking sound effects didn’t just whisper to the future of film scores—they shouted!
