The Symphony Strikes Back
My family went to hear the Virginia Symphony Orchestra and Chorus (and the Virginia Children's Chorus for a few numbers) perform a tribute to John Williams last night. Yes we went to hear movie music. It was wonderful though.
Here's some of what they played:
- Olympic Fanfare from the 1984 Olympics
- ET
- Theme from "Schindler's List"
- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
- Star Wars Suite
- Jaws
- Superman March
- Hymn to the Fallen from "Saving Private Ryan"
- Amistad
- Star Wars Episode 1: "Phantom Menace" Duel of the Fates
- Indiana Jones
It was a very nice concert. And a lot of fun. Even if we were a little warm in the balcony.
