About the show
Get ready to unwrap the ultimate holiday treat with London Concertante’s Christmas at the Movies — a journey through the heartwarming worlds of beloved festive films.
This festive celebration boasts a programme of music spanning the golden age of Hollywood to modern cinematic classics. The programme features music including John Williams’ magical score for Home Alone, the sweeping orchestral warmth of Alan Silvestri’s The Polar Express, John Debney’s playful score for Elf, and Craig Armstrong’s heartfelt music for Love Actually.
