The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra celebrates the musical brilliance of John Williams, undoubtedly one of the world's most prolific and respected film composers.

The Orchestra will perform a handful of these superb orchestrations and legendary melodies, including music from Star Wars, Indiana Jones, E.T., Harry Potter, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Superman, Jaws, Jurassic Park, Schindler's List, Hook, Fiddler on the Roof, Home Alone, War Horse and many more!
