A story that transcends film music
<\/strong>Film music is often the first thing people associate with names such as Korngold or Glass. This evening
reveals how both composers reach far beyond cinema \u2013 into the realm of pure symphonic music.

Brno-born Erich Wolfgang Korngold became one of Hollywood\u2019s most prominent film composers.
However, his Symphony in F-sharp major, written during his time in American exile, is the work of a
musical genius with deep European roots. Dramatic, passionate, and elegant \u2013 a masterful orchestral
work, in which emotional depth and refined instrumentation come together.

The Piano Concerto by Philip Glass, one of the foremost contemporary composers, was commissioned
by the Brno Philharmonic and draws on his original score for the film Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters
(1985) about the Japanese writer Yukio Mishima. Premiered in 2023, it transforms cinematic motifs into
an energetic fusion of musical minimalism and deep emotions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
