Cinemusica
Iconic film music live in concert.
Overview
The Australian Chamber Orchestra will collaborate with critically acclaimed percussion group Synergy Percussion on two concerts featuring some of the most iconic film scores in living memory. Featuring works by Thomas Newman and Bernard Herrmann along with Greek-French composer Iannis Xenakis, Cinemusica shapes up as a sonic treat for film lovers and classical music fans alike.
Of course, you don't have to be a movie buff to recognise the shrieking strings of Herrmann's iconic score to Psycho. Also on the run sheet is Newman's ethereal work from American Beauty, and Bartók's Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta, used by Stanley Kubrick to unsettling effect in The Shining.
Rounding out the concert will be a pair of compositions by Xenaskis, along with a brand new work by Synergy Percussion artistic director Timothy Constable.
