Brussels Philharmonic & Dirk Brossé

Le Brussels Philharmonic presents Star Wars: Return of the Jedi in Concert – (re)discover this epic film on the big screen, with the immersive soundtrack by John Williams, awarded an Oscar®, performed live by the orchestra. “I am a Jedi, like my father before me…” For decades, the Star Wars saga has fascinated young and old: its mythical tales, its cult characters, its innovative visual effects, and, of course, the legendary music of John Williams have become global references. Experience all the force and grandeur of this mythical episode during this film-concert, carried by live music under the direction of Dirk Brossé — chosen personally by John Williams in 2010 to conduct the Star Wars in Concert world tour. In this spectacular and culminating episode of the Star Wars saga, Dark Vador is preparing a second Death Star to strike a decisive blow against the Alliance Rebelle. Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), accompanied by his faithful droids R2-D2 and C-3PO as well as Princesse Leia (Carrie Fisher), embarks on a perilous mission to free his friend Han Solo (Harrison Ford), held prisoner by the infamous crime lord Jabba le Hutt. Reunited, the Rebels head to the forest moon of Endor, where they launch a desperate attack against the Imperial fleet. But the decisive confrontation is played out elsewhere: between a father and his son, as Luke faces Dark Vador in a face-to-face on which the fate of the galaxy depends. © & TM LUCASFILM LTD.
