Open Rehearsal: Hollywood’s Classical Composers with the Price Brothers

Open Rehearsal: Hollywood’s Classical Composers with the Price Brothers invites you to step back into the golden era of cinema, where sweeping symphonic scores became the heartbeat of the silver screen. In this special concert film, the Tivoli Copenhagen Phil orchestra, led by the virtuoso conductor James Price, transports you to the 1930s‑1950s Hollywood, the era when composers such as Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Max Steiner, Franz Waxman and Bernard Herrmann forged a new musical language that still defines modern film music. Join the charismatic hosts, the multi‑talented Price Brothers—James on the podium and Adam adding sparkling wit from the side—who guide audiences through dramatic stories behind the composers, the films, and the era that turned Hollywood into a factory of dreams. Their engaging commentary brings the iconic themes to life, from Korngold’s lush and adventurous score for *The Adventures of Robin Hood* (an early inspiration for John Williams) to the spine‑chilling sound world beneath Alfred Hitchcock’s thrillers, and the sweeping grandeur of the famous themes from *Ben Hur* and *Gone with the Wind*. Set in the acoustically stunning Tivoli Concert Hall, this evening promises nostalgia, drama, and cinematic magic. From sweeping romantic love themes to nerve‑racking musical stabs that still make us shiver in our cinema seats, every note is delivered with the Price brothers’ signature charm—ensuring every viewer leaves with a playful smile and a head full of unforgettable melodies. The film also includes excerpts from Max Steiner’s *Gone with the Wind*, Dimitri Tiomkin’s *The Guns of Navarone* and Miklós Rózsa’s *Ben Hur*. Be part of this cinematic celebration and experience the rich, sweeping style that made Hollywood music an art form.
