An assortment of scores from the legendary Joe Hisaishi forms the first part of a cinematic epic, followed by a selection of Hollywood classics.
Memorable themes from some of John Williams greatest contributions are highlighted, with music from Jaws, E.T., and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. The instantly recognisable Lawrence of Arabia makes an appearance, as does the hauntingly memorable Nino Rota score from The Godfather.
There really is something for everyone and more besides, in a tremendous afternoon of music from the screen.
Established in 1988 Penrith Symphony Orchestra is one of Australia’s leading community orchestras.
