Experience an evening where great cinema and great music intersect. From the shimmering romance of classic Hollywood to the emotional power of modern film scores, this program celebrates the composers who transformed the silver screen into one of the most expressive concert halls of our time. Featuring music by John Williams, Bernard Herrmann, Korngold, Shostakovich, Kusiak, Prokofiev, Nino Rota, and Ennio Morricone, this concert traces a dazzling arc from psychological suspense to sweeping lyricism, nostalgia, and noir.
Join us for an unforgettable night where melody becomes memory—and movies come alive through chamber music.
