Smeltington 1066 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Potter/Star Wars concerts back to back would make a nice weekend of Williams music. Music from "All nine" films means I can finally hear something from TLJ and TROS live! And hearing live prequel music would also be a treat.

rpvee 542 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 What a wonderful lineup! Glad the Film Night tradition is continuing and back to normal. The birthday tribute last year was cute, but I definitely prefer the Maestro on the podium verses in the audience! haha I do wonder why he isn’t doing the May/June Boston concerts anymore. It’s been years now since the last one, since even before the pandemic. The last time he conducted in Boston, it was those few random October 2021 concerts, and that’s just because they were recording Violin 2. I miss those late spring/early summer Film Nights in Symphony Hall itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 30918 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I'd love to attend Film Night and Sorcerer's Stone! I dunno how much I'd enjoy On Parade Star Wars: The Story in Music intrigues me, is this new, or is this the old tour w/ sequel stuff added to the end? Definitely not attending Nelsons show w/ Violin 2 again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it's the same selections (and I'm sure many will be the same) it'll be great to hear them in this setting that will make for more serious listening, vs in an arena. I had tickets for this show previously, but it was canceled due to covid. I don't THINK it got rescheduled at all until now, unless I'm mistaken. 5 minutes ago, rpvee said: I do wonder why he isn’t doing the May/June Boston concerts anymore. I really hope he does something in Boston this year... but they haven't announced their upcoming season yet. I wish they would announce it at the same time as Tanglewood! It would help with planning... rpvee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some very affordable tickets, under $100. I forget what the upper range is. Get a seat inside the shed... the lawn is fun, but you can't see anything from there. And make sure you buy them right when they go on sale. BrotherSound, Andy and Brando 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brando 856 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 I was thinking of going to the Hollywood Bowl, but I might do this instead since I've never been. It'd be cool if they sold JW themed merch too, like those blue hats they did last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 30918 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Ooh yea if you've never been to Tanglewood, it's so worth it. I love it there so much more than the Bowl MSM and Brando 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy 2181 Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 I’m going to Film Night! My wife and I will be in the Koussevitsky Music Shed section 20. I don’t know if those are good seats but I’m excited! Smeltington 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brando 856 Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Got tickets for the Lawn since that was all that was left! Now I see they rent out chairs/cushions, can you do that beforehand or only night of the event? And also since I'll be coming from Florida, you can Uber/Lyft there right?

Miguel Andrade 1034 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Prelude concerts are often performances with Tanglewood fellows at Ozawa Hall. Since last year, I guess they might take place at the TLI. The Senate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
