Gran Teatre del Liceu Symphony Orchestra - Film soundtracks
Thinking of the beautiful Pedralbes Gardens, Josep Pons has designed a journey through some of the most esteemed film soundtracks: already considered works of the classical repertoire because they have gone beyond the big screen to be installed in concert halls (The Mission, Schindler's List, Dead in Venice, Cinema Paradiso, Psycho, The Gattoparrdo, Out of Africa...).
The Symphony Orchestra of the Gran Teatre del Liceu is the oldest orchestra in Spain. During almost 170 years of history, the Orchestra of the Gran Teatre del Liceu has been conducted by the most prestigious conductors, from Arturo Toscanini to Erich Kleiber, from Otto Klemperer to Hans Knapperstsbusch, from Bruno Walter to Fritz Reiner, Richard Strauss, Alexander Glazunov, Ottorino Respighi, Pietro Mascagni, Igor Stravinsky, Manuel de Falla or Eduard Toldrà, until today with Riccardo Muti or Kirill Petrenko.
