The Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra got the Edinburgh International Festival off to a thrilling start last night with an opening concert featuring music from the Holywood movies.
As conductor Gustavo Dudamel said, this is the soundtrack of our lives and Star Wars, E.T. The Extra-terrestrial, Harry Potter and Superman were among the favourites on an unforgettable evening sponsored by Aberdeen Standard Investments.
There was even an umprompted visit from ‘The Birds’ – a flock of curious gulls – during the E.T. suite! A quite magical night indeed!
