Music occupies a special place in the world of the movies. Far from being a mere background element, great film scores add a non-verbal, non-visual dimension that brings characters and scenes to life, sets the dramatic mood and pace, and touches the viewer’s emotions. Great film composers are like alchemists, and their unique craft is a magical ingredient. From the earliest silent films through the Golden Age of Hollywood to today’s blockbusters, film without the expressive power of music is unimaginable. Penrith Symphony Orchestra invites you on a musical journey through movies old and new, including Gone with the Wind, Casablanca, Schindler’s List, Harry Potter, James Bond, The Magnificent Seven, The Mission, The Godfather, Batman, Titanic and more.
