A spellbinding evening of music and magic in fantasy, myths and legends. Immerse yourself in a journey through the realms of beloved fantasy soundtracks from film, TV and gaming, with musical highlights from Harry Potter, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones and World of Warcraft.\n\nElsewhere, we experience the drama and intrigue of television’s Good Omens and His Dark Materials, before classical works such as Stravinsky’s famous ‘Firebird’ Suite and Grieg’s heroic battle ‘In the Hall of the Mountain King’ unleashes the orchestra to epic heights.\n\nHosted by Katie Derham and Radio 1’s film critic Ali Plumb, the concert is brought to life by the BBC Concert Orchestra, the Huddersfield Choral Society and conductor Anna-Maria Helsing in this unforgettable night of wands, swords and lightsabers.
