The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra has just announced its program for 2015, and it’s set to be an exciting and eclectic year ahead. Symphony-loving Melbournians will be treated to a vast array of music, including familiar favourites and some rarely heard gems, with an impressive line-up of international soloists and conductors featured as well.

The season will start not with classical music, but with film. Continuing their wildly successful screenings of popular films with live-performed scores, the MSO will present Star Trek, Live in Concert, with music by Michael Giacchino. Later in the year, the Orchestra will present a screening of Babe, with Nigel Westlake’s beloved score conducted by the composer, for the film’s 20th anniversary year.

Film fans will also appreciate the Orchestra being joined by conductor and composer Tan Dun early in February for Chinese New Year celebrations. He’ll be presenting his recent compositions Symphonic Poem on 3 Notes and Nu Shu: The Secret Songs of Women, fresh from the Adelaide OzAsia Festival.
