Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the symphony hall, Jaws will be unleashed this summer as a live-to-picture experience thanks to Film Concerts Live!. Jaws In Concert will feature Steven Spielberg’s original summer blockbuster with a live orchestra performing John Williams’ iconic score, including a theme so memorable that just humming it in a swimming pool at night is enough to terrify people. According to Billboard, the experience “will have its world premiere at the Boston Pops Orchestra (which Williams famously helmed from 1980-1993) next summer, with Keith Lockhart conducting.”
Unsurprisingly, Jaws has been one of the titles that orchestras have been eager to perform since Film Concerts Live! began doing these live-to-picture experiences, usually of Spielberg-Williams collaborations. (E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial, Raiders Of The Lost Ark, and Jurassic Park have all been done previously.) “It’s not only a testament to the power...

Jurassic Park will roar back onto the big screen this November accompanied by a live orchestra to spotlight composer John Williams' Grammy-nominated score. Film Concerts Live, the production company that previously synced films like Back to the Future, Home Alone and West Side Story with a live orchestra, will next give the Steven Spielberg-directed Michael Crichton adaptation a similar multisensory experience.
For Jurassic Park In Concert, the dinosaur blockbuster will project in full HD at concert halls across the globe while a full symphony orchestra provide a live feel to Williams' score.

You’re going to be hearing a lot of a certain John Williams movie score in weeks to come, but if Star Wars fatigue is setting in already, here’s a different one of his – like you’ve never heard it before. Spielberg’s stirring sci-fi tale of Americans providing a safe haven for a vulnerable immigrant has lost none of its heart-rending power, despite the decidedly old-school animatronics. To transport you even further, it’s showing here for the first time in the UK with a full symphony orchestra playing along to the movie. In a similar vein, the Barbican (EC2) has a double bill of orchestral movie events (just music, no film): The Best Of Bond, presented by Fiona Fullerton (28 Dec), and, inevitably, Star Wars And Beyond (30 Dec), which takes in such other cosmic classical scores as Star Trek and Thunderbirds.

To mark Pixar's Ratatouille being scored by a live orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall, we chat to film composer Michael Giacchino...
Ratatouille returns to the big screen this Wednesday - with an orchestra in tow. Brad Bird's 2007 Pixar animation is showing at the Royal Albert Hall, accompanied by a full orchestra.
If you're one of the 12 people who haven't seen it, the film follows food-loving rat Remy as he secretly teams up with a hapless kitchen boy in Paris to create beautiful dishes. But that alchemy of ingredients takes place place off-screen too: between the visuals and Michael Giacchino's Grammy-winning and Oscar-nominated score.
As life-long fans of his work, from Jurassic World and Mission: Impossible to Inside Out and J.J. Abrams' Star Trek reboot, we dropped him a note to quiz him on how he composes, why he names his tracks with such bad puns - and,...

The Doctor Who Symphonic Spectacular is a must-see tribute to the show's tremendous musical repertoire...
Doctor Who has been around for over half a century, and a decade on from its triumphant return to TV, it's fair to say that it's never been more popular around the world. Events like the 2013 simulcast and special cinema screenings of The Day Of The Doctor will attest to this and it never seems like we're far off from another reminder of its regenerated global fandom.
Following successful runs in Australia and New Zeleand, the Doctor Who Symphonic Spectacular arena show reiterated that case on its first UK tour last week, drawing crowds across the nation. The BBC National Orchestra of Wales and members of the National Chorus of Wales went from Wembley to Glasgow over the course of seven dates, in celebration of composer Murray Gold's spellbinding musical score for the series.
