Under the baton of PEISO Music Director Jaelem Bhate, audiences will be transported to a galaxy far, far away, as the orchestra brings to life the beloved themes of Imperial March, Across the Stars, Battle of the Heroes, Duel of the Fates, Princess Leia’s Theme, and much more! Unique to May the Fourth Be With You is the exploration of music from across the franchise, as well as the classical repertoire that inspired them. To that end, in recognition of the role that classical music had to play as inspiration to John Williams in his composition of his iconic soundtracks, the PEISO will perform excerpts of parallel classical works including pieces by Tchaikovsky, Strauss, and Stravinsky. Please note this concert is not paired with any official movie clips.
