Star Wars: Return of the Jedi In Concert

At David Geffen Hall, *Star Wars: Return of the Jedi* is presented in concert, pairing the complete film with its live orchestral score by John Williams. The evening features David Newman with the New York Philharmonic, continuing a career shaped by appearances at major halls and collaborations with ensembles and soloists. In New York, Williams’s *Star Wars* music has long held a stable place in the city’s symphonic life, bridging concert tradition and mass cinema. One can hear how the score organizes mythic storytelling with the discipline of late-Romantic orchestration.
