About the event

Classical composers Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Bernard Herrmann and Franz Waxman all left Europe to follow careers in America where they found fame as pioneers of a new artform - film music. Leonard Bernstein, later famous for his musical West Side Story, was the composer behind the film score for Elia Kazan's On the Waterfront.

Join the Scottish Chamber Orchestra for a spectacular evening of American film music with carefully choreographed pyrotechnics for a rousing finale to the 2010 Festival. Hollywood offers up a perfect opportunity for the masters of fireworks design, Pyrovision, to paint the Edinburgh skyline in cinematic style.
