SOUNDBYTES NEW!! Welcome to our SoundBytes Series. This is a perfect series for first-time symphony-goers or the season symphony lover! The first two concerts are themed with short familiar pieces (soundbytes!) to show how classical music with a symphony orchestra is used in popular culture. After last year’s overwhelming response to Chaplin’s City Lights, our third concert in this series is Chaplin’s Modern Times, complete with his own original score performed by the WSO. Music, Movies & Maddin THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 4 I 8:00 PM - 30 - 2010 I 2011 SEASON GUIDE Join celebrated Winnipeg filmmaker Guy Maddin as he takes you on a journey of music and movies, and explores how classical music is used in Hollywood’s famous films such as: The Incredibles, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Amadeus, Apocalypse Now, Austin Powers, The Shining, Blues Brothers, Manhattan, Platoon, 10, Excalibur and Fantasia. Guy Maddin’s most distinctive quality is his fondness for recreating the look and style of silent or early sound era films. His award-winning feature films include Tales from the Gimli Hospital, The Saddest Music in the World, Brand Upon the Brain, and My Winnipeg, to name a few. Along with resident conductor Richard Lee, you will be surprised and mesmerized by how classical music is interwoven into popular culture.
