The force is strong! The Philly POPS sets course for a galaxy far, far away with the music that changed cinema forever.
Music Director and Principal Conductor David Charles Abell will conduct pieces from each of these iconic films. Get goosebumps from the “Main Theme” of that very first blockbuster film. Thrill to the suspense of the “Duel of the Fates.” John Williams’ soaring scores are rich with unforgettable themes, reminiscent of galactic landscapes. Williams composed the scores for all nine Star Wars films, starting with A New Hope in 1977, and has won six GRAMMY awards and eight nominations, just for his work with the saga.
Join the Rebellion and come in costume as your favorite character to hear the Philly POPS orchestra performing the iconic soundtrack as it was originally recorded!
