From the wilds of Arabia to the French Revolution, 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra and 大象传媒 Singers bring together BAFTA-, Academy Award- and Golden Globe-winning films. This showcase has everything you're looking for in a night at the movies; Cult Classics, Spaghetti Westerns, Adventure, Comedy, Sci-fi, Drama and Romance.

On the bill: blockbuster Les Mis茅rables with music by Claude-Michel Sch枚nberg, French drama Les Choristes, and Maurice Jarre's highly acclaimed soundtrack to Lawrence of Arabia. Chosen for their atmospheric nature, Ligeti's Lux aeterna accompanied 2001: A Space Odyssey's mesmerising imagery and Messiaen's haunting choral motet O Sacrum Convivium featured in Stigmata. Plus a handpicked selection from celebrated Italian film composer Ennio Morricone, including Once Upon a Time in the West and The Mission.

大象传媒 Concert Orchestra has recorded many film and TV soundtracks including Planet Earth, Africa, The Paradise, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen and Brighton Rock. Come and see them and 大象传媒 Singers at Watford Colosseum as they star in Europe on Film: Vive la Musique!
