The Royal Albert Hall is heading out of this world at the end of June for their Space Spectacular Gala; a voyage through a galaxy of favourite music from deep space and beyond, with lights, lasers and fireworks, with the backing of a live orchestra.
The night is set to include works by Holst, Strauss and others whose music has accompanied us on epic adventures, told us stirring tales, and taken us on a great many emotional journeys. Iconic pieces have even transported us back to a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, so often painting a full picture before the actors even say a word.
John Williams, the man dubbed the greatest film composer of all time and winner of over 40 prestigious awards – including 5 Oscars – is set to be a center-piece of the evening, or at least his music will be.
Alongside The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conductor Anthony Inglis will be bringing us the greatest outer-space show on Earth. Tickets are available for Friday 19th June, Saturday 20th June Matinee and Evening showings.
