What it is

John Williams' film scores have a way of stopping a room, and hearing them played live by a full orchestra makes that feeling even more powerful. This concert gathers favourites from ET, Harry Potter, Jurassic Park and Star Wars under one roof.

It is the kind of programme where children sit unusually still, recognising every theme, while parents find themselves equally absorbed.

Where this fits

Every one of these is a list we keep for Auckland families.
