OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION

Join us for this free musical event – “May the 4th Be With You” and dress in your Star Wars best!

 

Dr. Christoph Bull will play film music featuring the iconic music of Star Wars by John Williams on The Great Organs at First Church to celebrate May the Fourth, in what is now an annual tradition. The Sanctuary at First Church leaps with the energy of the classic Sci-Fi series, brought to life on one of the largest organs in the world. The night brings several LA treasures together under one roof with the expansive creativity of Christoph Bull mixing the majestic colors of 20,000 pipes into his awe-inspiring artistry.

 

The FCCLA Cathedral Choir under the direction of David Harris will make a guest appearance, as will Grammy-winning pianist Gloria Cheng playing movements from John Williams’ concert music ‘Conversations’, a piano suite centered around imaginary dialogues between some great jazz musicians from Williams’ youth.

 

Sonora Chorus will join the Cathedral Choir on “Duel of the Fates” and perform a selection from ‘Home Alone’ accompanied by Dr. Bull.
