Proms on Four: The Film Music Prom

The 麻豆社 Concert Orchestra perform music from the movies, including Walton's score for Battle of Britain, David Arnold's Independence Day end titles and John Williams's Star Wars.

Neil Brand presents a special night of music from the movies, with war and science-fiction looming large. Keith Lockhart conducts the 麻豆社 Concert Orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall in Walton's largely-rejected original score for Battle of Britain, Bond composer David Arnold's Independence Day end titles, and Richard Strauss and Ligeti as used by Stanley Kubrick in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Also, possibly the most famous film music ever - John Williams's Star Wars, a world premiere of Giacchino's music for Star Trek: Into Darkness and much more.
