Maglorfin 196 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I know this is a very short notice and tough chance, but just in case anybody is in or near Ljubljana, Slovenia tonight, he definitely should come to a fantastic film music concert in the Gallus Hall of Cankarjev dom (more info about the venue here). The programme will be as follows:John Williams: Main Title from Star WarsJohn Williams: Suite from Harry Potter and the Philosopher's StoneJohn Williams: Three pieces for violin and orchestra from Schindler's List (Main Theme, Jewish Town (Krakow, the Winter of 1941), Remembrances)Jani Golob: Music from TV series Čisto pravi gusar for the orchestraChristopher Gunning: Poirot Fantasy for saxophone and orchestraChristopher Gunning: La mome Piaf, music from La Vie en Rose for accordion and orchestraJohn Corigliano: Chaconne for violin and orchestra from The Red ViolinMonty Norman/Calvin Custer: The James Bond ThemeCalvin Custer: Suite from Star Trek moviesLalo Schifrin: Mission Impossible ThemeElmer Bernstein: Music from The Magnificent SevenJohn Williams: Main Title March from SupermanThe concert will be performed by Slovenian RTV Symphony Orchestra. I have the ticket already, needless to say. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,714 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 The programme looks really good and has a great and somewhat atypical middle section. I just love Christopher Gunning's Poirot scores and the Fantasy for saxophone and orchestra might be interesting indeed. That composer is seriously underpresented on CD in general.Corigliano's Chaconne is just wonderful as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maglorfin 196 Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 Yes, I've also always loved Gunning's Agatha Christie's Poirot music and always wanted to hear it being performed live, as the chances for that are extremely scarce, so I'm really looking forward to this. Another gem would be to hear some Parker's Midsomer Murders stuff, but maybe next time. (Sometime ago, I actually made an arrangement of Agnus Dei cue for string orchestra and two sopranos, which was then actually performed by the symphony orchestra I play in.)But most of all, I'm looking foward to JW stuff, of course.
