The Music of Harry Potter
The magical musical experience Live in Concert
Soloists, singers and musicians from the Cinema Festival Symphonics
Spectacular light and screen animation
For 20 years, the "Harry Potter" films have captivated people around the world and across generations. The iconic film music, composed by John Williams, Patrick Doyle, Nicolas Hooper and Alexander Desplat, has played a major part in this. Almost everyone can hum along to the famous "Hedwig's Theme", which is now considered the main melody of the film series - and it gives you goosebumps!
"The Music of Harry Potter - Live in Concert" is a magical evening of a very special kind. It combines the musical highlights of the "Harry Potter" films and the play "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" to create a unique experience.
Using state-of-the-art technology, the mighty ensemble of the Cinema Festival Symphonics, led by renowned conductor Stephen Ellery, will take Harry Potter fans on a musical journey through all 8 "Harry Potter" films. Soloists, choir and orchestra celebrate a unique sound that fully immerses you in the world of magic and, together with elaborate screen animations and visual effects, creates a rollercoaster of emotions.
Pure goosebumps when "Hedwig's Theme" transports the audience to Hogwarts or the choir performs "Double Trouble".
"The Night Bus" creates an exuberant atmosphere with the speedy ride of the traveling knight.
Things get mystical with "Black Lake", when the audience dives into the Black Lake and the realm of the water people with Harry.
Finally, there is not a dry eye in the house when Hermione disappears from her parents' lives in "Obliviate" and the whole of Hogwarts bids farewell to its beloved principal in "Dumbledore's Farewell".
