Celebrating The Stellar Sonic Legacy of John Williams
A short time ago in a galaxy not so far away, one man changed the shape of film music with an incredible ear and a prolific career spanning six decades. Five-time Academy Award-winning composer John Williams has provided scores of scores for iconic films from the easily recognizable Star Wars horn section motifs to the spine-tingling celesta melody of Harry Potter's opening title. Don't miss a celebration of Williams' best-loved works in Houston Symphony's The Best of John Williams program this spring!
Lead by Principal POPS Conductor Steven Reineke and featuring the Houston Symphony Chorus, the ensemble will take the audience on a musical journey spanning space and time, performing highlights from Williams' biggest blockbuster scores, including selections from Harry Potter, Star Wars, E.T, Indiana Jones, and Superman, amongst others!
