Get ready to be swept away into the
captivating world of cinema as the Bozeman Symphony presents “At the

This concert will feature different music than
the pieces played in the Symphony’s John Williams 90th Birthday Celebration
concert two years ago.

John Williams, hailed as one of the greatest
film composers of all time, has enchanted audiences for over seven decades with
his recognizable and unforgettable musical scores. Collaborating with renowned
filmmakers like Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, Williams has garnered an
impressive collection of awards, including 26 Grammy Awards, five Academy
Awards, seven BAFTA Awards, three Emmy Awards, and four Golden Globe Awards.

Noteworthy local soloists will also grace the
stage, including Montana State University saxophonist Wonki Lee, praised by the
New York Concert Review for his exceptional talent, performing Catch Me If You
Can. Bozeman native violinist Felix Guggenheim, winner of the Montana
Association of Symphony Orchestra’s Concerto competition, will perform a moving
rendition of “Remembrances” from Schindler’s List.

The concerts will take place on Friday, June
7, at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, June 8, at 2:30 p.m. 7:30 p.m.; and Sunday, June 9,
at 2:30 p.m., at the historic Willson Auditorium in downtown Bozeman, 404 West
