If you’re in Bristol or surrounding areas we’d love to invite you along to concerts celebrating the best of film music at the beginning of March. Two giants of film composition, John Williams and Hans Zimmer go head to head in this concert which features a selection of film music including tracks from Star Wars, Gladiator, The Da Vinci Code, Schindler’s List, Harry Potter, Interstellar, ET, Batman Begins, Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Last Samurai, Pirates of the Caribbean, Superman.
A few months later we’ll be back at the venue for Symphonic Pink Floyd. In this vibrant concert you can expect all your epic hits by Pink Floyd, symphonically reimagined! The host of Pink Floyd classics will include Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Money, Hey You, Another Brick in the Wall, Time and many more…
Popular conductor Pete Harrison, who hails from Bristol, leads these concerts which allow you to immerse yourself in some of the best film music of all time and the sonic soundscape of one of the greatest rock bands of all time!
Conductor Pete Harrison said: “It’s such a privilege to have the opportunity to perform these popular concerts at the newly reopened Bristol Beacon. This is deeply loved music, and performing it with the full forces of a live symphony orchestra really takes it to a whole new level. We’ll see you there!”
A celebration of film music, The Best of Williams and Zimmer, takes place in spring [1 March] — as well as the BSO’s popular Symphonic Pink Floyd [10 May].
