5/3/2016

Tomorrow, for the first time, I will begin a tour with "The Music of Star Wars" (as opposed to with a Beatles program):

Wednesday, 4 May 2016, 7:00-8:00 p.m.
Kenosha Public Library: Northside Branch, 1500 27th Ave, Kenosha, WI

The Music of Star Wars: A Look at John Williams' Film Scores
Often called a “space opera”, one aspect of the Star Wars films that helped make them such a pop culture phenomenon was composer John Williams' ultra-romantic orchestral score. This 60-minute multimedia presentation will showcase the music of all seven movies, citing historical precedents and comparing musical influences with the twofold purpose of (1) illustrating how the music developed, and (2) enlightening listening and furthering enjoyment of the music.

The tour will last 21 days and include 16 speaking engagements in Wisconsin and Illinois.
