The Symphony of the Kootenays proudly opens its 50th Anniversary Season with a cinematic celebration of sound and storytelling. Magic & Mystery: Movie Magic from the Witching Hour and Beyond will take place on October 4 at the Key City Theatre in Cranbrook, promising an unforgettable evening of music that conjures worlds, stirs memories, and awakens the imagination.
Audiences will be transported through some of the most iconic film scores ever composed, including selections from Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Ghostbusters, Wednesday, Fantasia, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, and Psycho.
From sweeping fantasy to spine-tingling suspense, the program is designed to enchant listeners of all ages.
Adding a personal and celebratory touch to the evening, the Symphony will premiere a new work by Robin Clegg, longtime member and chair of the percussion section. His original composition marks a milestone moment in the orchestra’s history and reflects the creativity and dedication that have shaped the ensemble over five decades.
In honor of this landmark season, guests will be invited to join a champagne toast following intermission, celebrating the beginning of a four-concert series that commemorates fifty years of musical excellence in the Kootenays.
Prior to the performance, the Symphony will host its Annual General Meeting at 2:15 PM in the Key City Theatre Green Room.
Community members are encouraged to attend, and memberships are available for $10, granting voting privileges and a voice in the future of the organization.
