The Music of Lord of the Rings, Royal Festival Hall

The Music of Lord of the Rings, Royal Festival Hall

There are some themes that are infinitely recognisable – and although the world of J. R. R. Tolkien began on the page, the sounds of Lord of the Rings are now unmistakable.

Titanic Live, Royal Albert Hall

It takes three notes to instantly recognise the theme of one of the most beloved and heartbreaking themes in cinema history. The tragic, beautiful love story set onboard the sinking ship has lived in our hearts for over two decades – and now it plays out with an orchestra.


James Cameron's film will be screened alongside a faithful and triumphant rendition of the score by the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra, in the regal setting of the Royal Albert Hall. For such a magnanimous event, you'll want to book early.

The English Patient Live, Royal Festival Hall

Although this isn't a fairytale or sci-fi epic, the stakes of Anthony Minghella's devastating classic remain ever so high. The romance stars Ralph Fiennes, Juliette Binoche, Willem Dafoe and Kristin Scott Thomas.


Many still name the award-winning film as firm favourite because of the passion involved, spanning the entire world as it passes from the Sahara Desert to an Italian monastery. On the level of Doctor Zhivago – bring the tissues for this one.

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi In Concert, Royal Albert Hall

While the newest trilogy is soon coming to an end with Rise of the Skywalker, there's never a bad time to go back to where it all began. Episode VI, the third film in the original trilogy, sees Luke, Han and Leia meet Jabba the Hutt, Yoda and the Ewoks.


Next year's concert will, surprisingly, mark the first screening accompanied by orchestra in the UK – and it's the London Symphony Orchestra rising to the task to honour John Williams' irreplaceable score.

The Matrix Live, Royal Albert Hall

The Matrix Live, Royal Albert Hall

So much has changed since the Wachowskis first exploded onto the scene and made The Matrix, but the film's legacy most certainly lives on. Spawning video games, sequels, spin-offs and so much fan content, here the original material is celebrated once more.


The score to The Matrix is orchestral but also experimental – as the film was pivotal in the development of the sci-fi genre, composer Don Davis (here conducting his own score) achieved enormous progress for the sheer possibilitiies of film music at the time.
