Hugo 25 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 We'll see if there will be any changes in the setlist, even maybe some last-minute changes. From what I can read at the moment I like this program. Of course there can always be some that I wanted to hear that is missing, but at the same time there is also something that I would not have expected and that instead with pleasure is present (Far and Away Suite). Then there are also "mainstream" like Theme from Jurassic Park, Superman March, Hedwig's Theme and also some variations of famous themes like SWIV Throne Room and End Title. We will also see what will be played in the encores (maybe even with some special surprise guest, who knows...). For now I am happy to be there and that the concert will be held (also considered the covid it was not taken for granted). For me it's also the first time I can see the maestro directing so I'm more than happy! BB-8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joni Wiljami 1,205 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I actually like this program. Last-minute change could be Far and Away to BFG and Raiders March to WarHorse, thanks!! Remco, Jurassic Shark and BB-8 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raiders of the SoundtrArk 2,423 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Let's say Far and Away plus BFG plus TROS suite plus War Horse plus Duel of the Fates with the audience as the choir BB-8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eitam 362 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Happy with Scherzo, Han's Theme and Throne Room. Less with Yoda's Theme, with Marion's Theme sitting right next to the March, and with Nimbus 2000 right after Hedwig instead of Fawkes or Window to the Past. Oh well, I'll do my best to enjoy the concert anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugo 25 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 2 hours ago, May the Force be with You said: Duel of the Fates with the audience as the choir I don't know how that would turn out, though.... Can I ask your advice? what a pity that there isn't a system on the Philharmonie website also for the sale of tickets from "fan to fan" (without profit). It would certainly help to optimize the seats more easily and it would also help those looking for tickets that maybe only check on the official website and not fan websites as here for example. Probably their audience is different and therefore they never considered it. I, for example, could also immediately "free" a seat for the day of the 14th and so someone who only checks the official website could buy it. But I can't because after I had finally agreed with the ticket office (it took a while, but they were very kind with me), I can only receive from them a form of compensation for the value of my ticket, but this would not be very useful to me since I'm not a regular visitor of the Philharmonie. I'd have to sell this instead of the ticket, same story. So at the moment I have to keep selling the ticket on my behalf and leave an empty seat occupied unnecessarily. All time lost and I don't have much unfortunately, and someone for sure refreshes over and over again during the day the shop page in search of a ticket...what a situation. Any suggestion? it's not that by chance there is someone, who visits the Philharmonie quite often, who is not interested now in an additional ticket for the JW concert (because like many of us he already has one ) but who may be interested in a voucher valid for whatever concert there (it lasts several years...). If there is maybe PM me. I can decide what to do with them regarding my ticket, but not for long. By the way this would "free" on their shop as well a seat for the day of the 14th in favor of someone. Many thanks for your suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pauling 17 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 It will be the first time I've seen Williams. I am excited about: Scherzo, Excerpts, Jurassic Park, Far and Away, Superman and Throne Room & Finale. BUT I just hope one of the surprise pieces is of E.T.

heritage 73 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I cannot see any changes in the Program. Why ? Because the program sheets for the visitors must be printed in advance. Nobody want buy a program sheet with the wrong program. I think, that was the reason that the berlin philharmonic published the exact program so late. We have only three weeks to go. Normally the berlin philharmonic published the program much earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think JW will have good doctors and physiotherapists. I think he will arrive early enough in germany. Then he can relax some days. I think he will not only conduct the Berlin Philharmonic.

bigjimwilson 244 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 So is it just me.... or does anyone else prefer to avoid reading what the program will be? I steered clear of it for Vienna, and I truly believe the wow factor was amped up even higher because each piece was a surprise. (Apart from I knew Hook would be the opening... and that's only because I accidentally read it on this site ) For me it's just like going to see a band. It's very rare that you know what they're going to play before they begin. I love the element of surprise, and it truly puts me in the palm of the hand of the performer. But, just like when the Vienna concerts were getting closer, I think I'm going to have to either stop checking this thread, or just be super careful. Already read some things I would have preferred not to know while skimming through. I'm just curious if I'm alone in this preference? (Cue some hilarious one word "yes" answers.) I'd love to know why you're either for or against, and if you can tell me without mentioning specifics about the upcoming program that would be much appreciated GerateWohl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GerateWohl 4,277 Posted September 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 24, 2021 I never really understood this autograph thing anyway. Standing in a crowd of people stalking a celebrety to ask for a signature, and then what? I thought anyway this autograph thing has been more or less replaced by this even more intrusive selfie shooting. If a photograph or a signature is a dedication is the result of a pleasant encounter for both sides it is something different. But I guess, that this is quite rare at such concerts.
