Spectacular Soundtracks

Music from some of the greatest blockbusters of all time.
Conductor

PETE HARRISON CONDUCTOR

Cast your mind backโ€ฆ The family bickering has been resolved and a decision has been made, the curtains are closed and everyone has found their favourite chair. 

And then, the drum roll and fanfare of Twentieth Century Fox starts and itโ€™s film night! But what does the theme tune tell you lies in store? Is it the dramatic brass of an action film like Mission: Impossible? Do you hear a tolling bell, as a lonely oboe and eerie voices herald the start of a Western like The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly? Or maybe an Irish flute, horn and lush strings set the tone for a love story such as Titanicโ€ฆ

Before a word of dialogue has been spoken, music for film has already painted a picture of your new reality for a couple of hours. Join the Ulster Orchestra as they help you recreate that escape by playing some of the most spectacular soundtracks in cinema history!
