The Great British Film Orchestra brings the magic of cinema to life through spectacular live orchestral performances. Bringing together exceptional musicians and performers from across the UK, we celebrate the soundtracks that have shaped some of the world’s most unforgettable films, transforming iconic scores into powerful live experiences filled with emotion, atmosphere and drama.
Our productions celebrate some of the most iconic music ever written for the screen. From the epic cinematic worlds of The Music of John Williams vs Hans Zimmer, to the unmistakable sound of The Music of James Bond and the spellbinding scores celebrated in An Orchestral Tribute to Harry Potter, each production is carefully created to take audiences on a powerful journey through the music, moments and stories they know and love.
At the heart of The Great British Film Orchestra is a belief that film music deserves to be experienced live. Performing in some of the UK’s most beautiful and atmospheric venues, we combine outstanding musicianship with carefully considered production and storytelling to create unforgettable nights for audiences of all ages. Whether revisiting a favourite film or discovering a score in a completely new way, our aim is simple: to make the music of the movies feel bigger, closer and more powerful than ever.
