The Ring in Concert

Experience the spellbinding fusion of cinema and live music at Jacobs Music Center with a one‑night‑only concert performance of the landmark psychological horror film *The Ring*. As the San Diego Symphony Orchestra takes the stage, the haunting score of Hans Zimmer—crafted in a minimalist, unsettling style that heightens the film’s creeping dread—plays under the direction of conductor Susie Benchasil Seiter, guiding fans through the film’s chilling narrative. The story follows the bizarre death of a teenage girl, leading journalist Rachel Keller (Naomi Watts) to investigate an eerie urban legend. In a secluded cabin, she discovers a videotape that unleashes disturbing imagery and a chilling telephone call warning, “seven days.” Zimmer’s music, as described in the original soundtrack liner notes, is essential to the film’s psychological tension, making *The Ring* a defining modern horror classic. Released by DreamWorks Pictures in 2002, the film remains one of the most influential psychological thrillers of its era. Catch this unique cinematic experience—details and tickets are available now.
