Dallas Symphony Orchestra | Masters of Film Music

The Dallas Symphony Orchestra announces a new multi-year programming initiative: the Masters of Film Music. This ground-breaking new series brings the music of some of today's top film composers to Dallas as part of the 2010-2011 and 2011-2012 Dallas Symphony Pops Series. The Masters of Film Music will feature a Dallas Symphony Orchestra-commissioned world premiere work written by each composer, combined with a multi-media career retrospective with images on a larger-than-life screen.

The top composers whose world premiere commissions and career retrospectives will be featured in the Masters of Film Music are James Newton Howard, George Fenton, Theodore Shapiro, Michael Giacchino, Harry Gregson-Williams, and an evening of the "All Time Great Music of Film" which will also feature a new work by up-and-coming composer Sir Anthony Hopkins, conducted by DSO Music Director Jaap van Zweden.
