The Conway Symphony Orchestra is gearing up to deliver a unique cinematic experience this Saturday evening. At 7 p.m., the orchestra, led by Israel Getzov, will perform John Williams’ iconic score for “JAWS” while the film plays on a screen above them at Reynolds Performance Hall. This special performance is part of the University of Central Arkansas’s Public Appearances series.
Reynolds Performance Hall, located at 201 Donaghey Ave. in Conway, will transform into a thrilling underwater world where music and film merge to create an intense, immersive experience. The performance promises to bring the suspense of “JAWS” to life in a way that only live music can. While the film itself contains mature content, the combination of live orchestral music with the movie’s dramatic visuals is sure to be a treat for film and music enthusiasts alike.
Tickets for this event range from $34.50 to $57.50, with a discounted rate of $11.50 available for students. If you’re looking to secure a seat, you can call (501) 450-3265 or (866) 810-0012, or purchase tickets through the UCA Public Appearances website. With the buzz surrounding this event, tickets may not last long.
If you’re planning a weekend filled with cultural experiences, consider adding this to your itinerary alongside the recent conclusion of the SoNA season under the baton of Tamara Dworetz. It’s a fine time to be a fan of live orchestral music in Arkansas.
So, if you’re a fan of Spielberg’s shark-infested thriller or just a lover of John Williams’ masterful compositions, this event is not to be missed. A live rendition of such a well-known score promises to be a spectacular auditory and visual treat. Just make sure to hold onto your popcorn when those ominous bass notes signal the approach of the great white.
