To Hollywood and Beyond

January 9 -10, 2025

Guest Artist: Lindsay Garritson, piano
To Hollywood and Beyond: Atlantic Classical Orchestra's 1st Masterworks Series

Overview

Join Maestro David Amado, and pianist Lindsay Garritson for spectacular opening concerts featuring music from the silver screen. Two works written for Hollywood classics join two concert works whose drama, beauty, and tunefulness have made them cinema staples. Korngold’s score to Errol Flynn’s swashbuckling 1940 classic The Seahawk is a paragon of the lush “Hollywood Sound”. Steiner’s 1942 score for Casablanca is equally iconic filled with romance, drama, and adventure. We’ll also feature Rachmaninoff’s Second Piano Concerto and Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet—both works whose lyricism and passion have earned them screen time in some of Hollywood’s most memorable films.
