Korngold’s post-WWII comeback.

It is bold, cinematic, and unapologetically Romantic.

Dedicated to Alma Mahler, the wife of Gustav Mahler, this concerto transforms Hollywood shimmer into virtuosic fire.

Not just a concerto, a STATEMENT. 🔥

The most famous horror cue in history almost didn’t exist.

When Hitchcock wanted silence, Bernard Herrmann wrote the music anyway.

Good thing he did.

Suspense. Romance. Cosmic drama. 🎬🎻

From the chilling intensity of Psycho to Nancy Zhou’s stunning Korngold Violin Concerto and Strauss’ legendary Also sprach Zarathustra (yes… that space moment 🚀), this is symphonic cinema at its finest.

Join us for a night where Hollywood meets the concert hall and keep it going at the afterparty at The Waller.
