“Film music is a story conveyed and told in front of your eyes…It’s live classical music of fantastic standard and composition andperformance…it adds to the symphonic music canon.”

Jasper Hope, COO of the Royal Albert Hall

Where have all the symphonies gone? To the Silver Screen!Contemporary symphonic film composers are carrying on the tradition of Wagner, Tchaikovsky and Puccini by writing music that accompanies a theatrical genre. Cinema has become symphonic music's new concert hall. Film composers are creating a vast new global audience for symphonic music that transcends age, socioeconomics and nationality, linking the old and new symphonic traditions—a circle unbroken!
