Glass, Bowie, Greenwood New Classics

Glass, Bowie, Greenwood New Classics invites you to witness a cinematic exploration of rock’s most daring innovators. The film opens the season with a celebration of the creative genius behind Radiohead’s orchestral vision—Jonny Greenwood, whose haunting score for *There Will Be Blood* (2007) earned him Golden Globe and BAFTA nods. Watching Greenwood assemble this breathtaking suite reveals the same avant‑garde intensity that infused the beloved band’s black‑box studio experiments and the tumultuous atmosphere of the film itself. Next, the program turns to the minimalist maestro Philip Glass, who, in 1996, paid a stirring symphonic tribute to David Bowie through a reinterpretation of *Heroes* (1977). Glass reworks the album into a lush, urban symphony that preserves the introspective spirit of Bowie's Berlin trilogy and the haunting persona of the “Thin White Duke.” This dynamic pairing—Greenwood’s modern score and Glass’s reflective homage—creates a dialogue between the two protectors of rock’s edge. Featuring dedicated performances of Greenwood’s *There Will Be Blood* suite and Glass’s Symphony No. 4 “Heroes,” the film delivers a powerful, sensory journey through the mind of two contemporary legends. Take your place in this unforgettable New Classics showcase and experience the future of rock reimagined for the screen. External links: Details & tickets.
