David Newman, conductor
San Diego Symphony Orchestra
Few composers have shaped our emotional memory like John Williams. From the wonder of "Star Wars" and the adventure of "Indiana Jones" to the soaring heroism of "Superman" and the tender, otherworldly beauty of "E.T." , his music doesn’t just accompany stories; it is the story. Featuring some of the biggest hits and beloved classics of the silver screen, this all-Williams program puts the sound of the movies front and center, conducted by David Newman and performed by the San Diego Symphony Orchestra. Whether you grew up with these films or are discovering them anew, this is a night to feel the music that made movies legendary.
