One of the greatest biopics ever made, this look at the incomparable life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart swept the 1984 Oscars. Newly mastered for live accompaniment, LACO joins VPAC and members of the LA Opera Chorus to bring the film to life. LACO’s performance also honors Sir Neville Marriner, the Orchestra’s founding music director, who conducted the film’s original soundtrack. The Great Hall will resound with Mozart’s masterpieces, none more poignant than his Requiem building to the film’s tragic ending.
