CONCERT WATCH
Today work has prevented me from reviewing any of the stack of CDs that await my attention, so I thought I'd just spare a few minutes to check out the websites for info on forthcoming film music concerts, and there are some that should be brought to your attention.
To save time you may as well just go to http://www.musicfromthemovies.com where you will firstly find info on Jan A.P. Kaczmarek's concert at the Royce Hall at UCLA on Friday 20th January, where the programme, entitled "Journey to Light," will chart the composer's career, and you can also have a stab at winning free tickets.
Secondly, check out the info on the Bernard Herrmann concert at London's Barbican Centre on 17th March. The programme is entitled "Nightmare Romance-Bernard Herrmann and Alfred Hitchcock," but although music from their collaborations is most prominently featured, there will apparently be other Herrmann scores featured.
And if you visit the News Archive for December, you will find info, initially announced by scoremagacine.com on an ambitious new event, The Madrid Film Festival, which will take place between 30th June and 2nd July and will include concerts by Harry Gregson-Williams and Trevor Jones, as well as conferences and seminars with invited composers.
After a long, barren patch, it's great that there are suddenly so many exciting events on offer, so get out there and support them - you know it makes sense!
