John Williams - The Greatest Movie Music.

Journey · 25 Dec 2010 at 23:42

Hello, and Merry Christmas to you all

I'm heading off to see John Williams - The Greatest Movie Music concert at the Birmingham Symphony Hall in a couple of days, and was just wondering if anyone else has been to see this show already?

I'd like to know what was played, and in what order. It's being performed by the London Concert Orchestra and I have read they are pretty darn good.

I am really looking forward to hearing the theme music from the likes of E.T., Schindler's List and Indiana Jones, but was wondering if they might play some of the other tracks rather than just the opening credits.

Well regardless if no one has any more information I'll be sure to post back a mini review after the concert.

Not helpful but so jealous!

Just don't drift in to the Star Wars theme when trying to hum along to the Superman theme. The same could be said for Indiana Jones tune as well.

It would be terribly embarrassing.

I'm confused here, at no point do any of those three themes sound the same.
