Spellbinding melodies come to life in their original concept at the beginning of December at Prague's O2 universum. An audiovisual show with film and light effects and commentary, performed by The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra with guest conductor Pete Harrison, will amaze and touch the audience for the first time in the Czech Republic. Audiences can look forward to tracks from films like Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Harry Potter, and E.T.; not forgetting the iconic themes from Jaws and Indiana Jones. The official anthem of the Olympic Games, composed by John Williams for the Winter Sports Festival held in Salt Lake City in 2002, may surprise many. A chill will run down your spine when listening to the central theme from the film Schindler's List, and the true atmosphere of advent will be conjured by the fairy-tale melody from the movie Home Alone. Fans of Superman or the war drama Saving Private Ryan will not be disappointed.

Conductor Pete Harrison is not only an experienced artist, performing with many British and international musical ensembles, but also an energetic host. Thanks to this, he will provide the audience with many interesting facts about the circumstances and inspirations that led John Williams to create truly cult works, not only in the genre of film music.

Remind yourself of the immortal compositions associated with Hollywood cinematography and let yourself be carried away by the amazing fantasy of the timeless musical composer, John Williams. This exceptional experience will be enhanced by the live performance by The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and a large choir, film effects, light show, and commentary on the creation of unforgettable melodies.
