The 45th edition of the Cycle of Great Music Authors and Performers of the Autonomous University of Madrid will offer next Saturday, April 7th, a new and exclusive concert, which will contain a program prepared at the request of the CSIPM – UAM (Center for Research and Promotion of Music), where people will be able to enjoy the soundtracks of some of the most emblematic titles of films based on scientific disciplines.

 

The concert, named ‘Music, Cinema and Science. A Beautiful Mind’ will be performed by the Film Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Constantino Martínez-Orts and will be held in the Symphony Hall of the National Auditorium of Music in Madrid (Spain).

 

The music of great composers such as John Williams, Bernard Herrmann, Alexandre Desplat, Hans Zimmer or Jóhann Jóhannsson, will shape a repertoire whose main theme will be Science, including some of the most influential scores in the history of film music.
