Vancouver Symphony Orchestra performs Back to the Future In Concert at the Orpheum September 23, 24, and 25 as part of its TELUS Movie Nights series.

 

IT’S NOT YOUR average night at the movies.

Back to the Future in Concert features the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra playing Alan Silvestri’s musical score live in sync with the 1985 blockbuster movie starring Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd, which will play on a huge high-definition screen at the Orpheum.

The score earned the California-based Silvestri a Grammy nomination for Best Album of Original Score Written for a Motion Picture the year it came out and a Saturn Award nomination in 1986 for Best Music.

Bonus: Silvestri composed approximately 20 minutes of brand new music specifically for this presentation.

VSO associate conductor Andrew Crust conducts.
