Action Movies - film music concert
Lahti Symphony Orchestra conducted by Michael Seal - Sibeliustalo
Program Info: Music is an inseparable partner of film, creating carefully structured layers of images. Since the very first films, music has provided more than just accompaniment to the story: it raises the psychological charge of scenes, propels the plot from one twist to the next, deepens the characters, intensifies the atmosphere and engages the viewer. It moves us, makes us cry, makes us laugh and touches us in ways we still can’t fully explain.
Examples of unforgettable film music include John Williams’s powerful bass lines for the flashing of the lightsabers. Or Alfred Hitchcock’s piercing horror with Bernard Herrmann’s violent chords. Star Wars, The Great Escape (Elmer Bernstein), Mission Impossible (Lalo Schifrin). Chase sequences, aerial scenes, a racing heartbeat.
The heroes of adventure films will receive a symphonic baptism at the Sibelius Hall, under the British conductor Michael Seal.
