Classical music

Get swept up in a whirlwind of classical virtuosity with *What's After the Movie*’s standout concert film, *Classical Music*. Join the Italian trio “Virtuosi Italiani” under the precise baton of conductor Alberto Martini, and experience the soaring violin of Julian Kainrath as he leads a dazzling program that spans the golden age of the Romantic era, the bold rhythms of early twentieth‑century film composers, and the timeless elegance of Spanish lute‑suite recollections. First, be transported back to the glittering salons of late‑nineteenth‑century Rome with Ottorino Respighi’s “Ancient Arias and Dances for Lute: Suite No. 3,” a lush orchestral journey that brings the past to life. Then feel the romantic pulse of Dmitri Schostakovich’s luminous “Souvenir d’un Lieu Cher” (Op. 42) as the violin lights the stage with warm, velvety tones. An exquisite instant of melodic light follows with Camille Saint‑Saëns’ “Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso,” a virtuoso gem that invites chills of wonder from the first swell of the strings. Finally, revel in the cinematic grandeur of Nino Rota, whose “Concerto for Strings” draws from the iconic scores of *La Strada*, *Romeo and Juliet*, and *Amarcord*, turning the concert hall into a living film set and leaving audiences spellbound. The film – captured in cinematic style and immersive sound – rewards attentive fans with a vibrant, live performance that glides from Italy to Russia, from Baroque lute to Hollywood film music, all in one unforgettable journey. Book your seats now and let this sweeping acoustic spectacle bring the magic of the concert hall into your living room.
