A Night at the Oscars

RTÉ Concert Orchestra
Stephen Bell, conductor

Join the RTÉ Concert Orchestra, led by conductor Stephen Bell, for an unforgettable evening of Hollywood’s most celebrated music. Revel in the magic of Academy Award®-winning and nominated scores that have defined generations, alongside recent favourites that continue to capture hearts and critical acclaim alike. 

As anticipation builds for Gladiator II nominations, the orchestra will revisit the power of Hans Zimmer’s unforgettable score from Gladiator, the Best Picture-winning epic that captured hearts with its haunting melodies and rousing themes.

Prepare to be transported by the music of Jurassic Park, with John Williams’ thrilling score that elevated the film to cult classic status. Winner of the 1994 Academy Award® for Best Sound, Best Effects; Sound Effects Editing, and Best Effects, Visual Effects, it was also nominated for the BAFTA for Best Sound, and won Best Special Effects and the People’s Vote for the Most Popular Film. Williams was also nominated for a Grammy in Best Instrumental Composition Written for a Motion Picture or for Television.

Get red-carpet ready for a true cinephile experience on February 26th and be swept away by the scores that made history, just days before the 2024 Academy Awards® on March 3rd.
