SUMMARY:Raiders of the Lost Ark
DESCRIPTION:Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra presents Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark™ Live in Concert featuring John Williams’ GRAMMY Award winning score performed live to the film. Celebrating its 45th anniversary\, originally released in 1981 as a collaboration between George Lucas and Steven Spielberg\, Raiders redefined the possibilities of adventure cinema and launched actor Harrison Ford to legendary status. Indiana Jones is the classic hero in this adventure set in the 1930s which follows the quick-witted and determined archaeologist as he hunts for the Lost Ark of the Covenant. Often facing insurmountable odds\, Indy always manages to succeed in the nick of time\, joined by endearing companions and opposed by notorious villains. With an impressive team of supporting actors including Karen Allen\, John-Rhys Davies\, Denholm Elliott\, and Paul Freeman\, combined with innovative special effects techniques by Industrial Light & Magic\, Raiders has captured the spirits of movie-goers for generations and continues to inspire adventures yet to come. \n\nRPO Recommends…\nIf you love John Williams\, check out All-American John Williams later this month! \nIf you like watching movies and experiencing the score live\, join us for It’s a Wonderful Life – In Concert 80th Anniversary at West Herr Auditorium Theatre. \nIf you like watching movies at Kodak Hall – Jeff Beal Scores Metropolis

SUMMARY:It's A Wonderful Life in Concert - 80th Anniversary
DESCRIPTION:Specials and Holidays sponsored by St. Ann’s Community \nIn partnership with The Seneca Falls It’s a Wonderful Life Museum \nCineConcerts brings you one of the most heartwarming classic films: It’s a Wonderful Life in Concert – 80th Anniversary. The film comes to life with Dimitri Tiomkin’s timeless score performed by a live symphony orchestra while the full film is shown on the big screen. Jimmy Stewart portrays the down-and-out George\, a lovable “failure” with so many problems that he is thinking about ending it all — and it’s Christmas! Clarence\, his guardian angel\, shows George what his town would be like if it hadn’t been for all of his good deeds. Experience the most beloved holiday movie of all time transformed into an unforgettable live film concert event! \nThe Seneca Falls It’s a Wonderful Life Museum was opened on December 10\, 2010. The Museum is located in a portion of what was the first movie theater in town\, the Seneca Theater. The theater was built in 1913 by Charles Fornesi\, the first Italian to immigrate to Seneca Falls.  While the building is undergoing stabilization and some construction\, the Museum is temporarily located at 76 Fall Street\, across from the Seneca Falls Visitor Center. The Museum started with one display case\, special items from the personal collection of Karolyn Grimes (“Zuzu Bailey”) and a wall of quotes from Frank Capra that focus on his personal philosophy of the value of each individual and the timeless message of “It’s a Wonderful Life.” \n\nRPO Recommends…\nif you like watching movies this way – How to Train Your Dragon In Concert (Jan 11 at West Herr Auditorium Theatre) \nif you like watching black and white film – Jeff Beal Scores Metropolis (Mar 5 at Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre with Jeff Beal conducting!) \nif you want to explore more holiday fare – Jeff Tyzik’s Gala Holiday Pops
