Our weekend of MSO At the Movies was a success! We welcomed two sold-out crowds to watch Star Wars: A New Hope with live soundtrack provided by your Madison Symphony Orchestra. Check out some photos and patron reviews below from the weekend!
Hear what the audience had to say…
“Please let they symphony know that this was such an amazing experience, and we enjoyed it immensely! Such a unique way to revisit a beloved movie.”
“It was obvious that Kyle was having a lot of fun conducting this concert. He glanced back at the audience several times with a large smile on his face.”
“We had a spectacularly good time. We love Star Wars so much and the orchestra was right on the beat, filling the theater with music . It was one of the most perfect performances I’ve ever experienced.”
“WOW! What a phenomenal performance. This is challenging music to play and it was performed flawlessly! The timing was impeccable with the movie. It occurred to me during the performance that it is incredibly harder for the musicians in this format as they can’t take a break. I’m sure the original musicians were able to take a break after each song.”
“Wow. The level of professionalism in playing and presentation was off the charts.”
“The conductor’s pre-concert talk was outstanding. It was obviously well prepared and born of his genuine enthusiasm. I believe that many of those who didn’t attend it would have enjoyed it. It enhanced the experience significantly.”
“We can’t say enough about how amazing this was for all of us. There were three generations of my family who attended.We are Star Wars and John Williams fans and this was so special and will be a lifetime memory.”
“So. Much. Fun. And the orchestra did a fantastic job. What a great way to spend a gray Sunday afternoon.”
“There was so much joy and appreciation in the audience. People loved the movie and LOVED the orchestra.”
