Composer of the Oscar award winning score for acclaimed 2016 film La La Land Justin Hurwitz will be conducting the Wordless Music Orchestra for a once in a lifetime live-to-film concert experience at Carnegie Hall on Saturday, February 1.
For one night only, the Perelman Stage at Carnegie Hall will be hosting award-winning composer Justin Herwitz as he conducts his work for critically acclaimed film La La Land with the Wordless Music Orchestra. A collaboration with Hurwitz Concerts, a company started in 2022 to produce live concerts of Justin Herwitz’s film scores worldwide, the evening is perfect for lovers of La La Land, musical score, and everything in between.
Most known for his work on the La La Land soundtrack that landed him two Academy Awards, A Golden Globe, and a BAFTA, Justin Herwitz is a longtime collaborator with director Damien Chazelle, scoring each one of his films- Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench, Whiplash, La La Land, First Man, and Babylon, with First Man and Babylon each earning him an additional Golden Globe for Best Original Score respectively.
The Wordless Music Orchestra is the house band of New York’s Wordless Music series, founded by Ronen Givony. Presenting contemporary and classical concerts around the world, the Orchestra is composed of some of New York’s brightest young musicians who are incredibly familiar with performances of live scoring, with a repertoire including Barry Jenkins’ Moonlight, Paul Thomas Anderson’s Punch-Drunk Love, and Ryan Coogler’s Creed.
Hurwitz and Wordless Music Orchestra will come together in a swoon-worthy live performance of the La La Land soundtrack in synchronization to the film, which will be shown on a big screen. Beginning at 8:00 PM on Saturday, February 1, this exciting musical movie experience is not to be missed.
