About the Event
'Morricone and Other Greats of Cinema – In Concert' will arrive at the Palacio de Congresos of Granada on Sunday, October 4, 2026 at 18:30, in a symphonic show dedicated to some of the most emblematic soundtracks in film history.
Morricone's scores, present in the collective memory thanks to films such as "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly", "Cinema Paradiso", "The Mission", and "Once Upon a Time in America", occupy a central place in the program. His melodies, capable of moving from the grandest epic to the most heartbreaking intimacy, are heard here with all the timbral richness of a full orchestra and, in many cases, with wind and choir sections that enhance the emotional impact.
Alongside Morricone, the concert usually includes pieces by other "greats of cinema" such as John Williams, Hans Zimmer, Nino Rota, or Howard Shore, depending on the specific program of the tour. This allows traveling, in a single afternoon, through universes as different as the galaxy of "Star Wars", Middle-earth of "The Lord of the Rings", the mafias of "The Godfather", or the magical world of "Harry Potter", to cite some common examples in this type of symphonic production.
The "in concert" format is usually supported by visual elements as well: although sales information does not detail whether there will be scene projection, it is common for lights, images, or at least a stage design to accompany each thematic block, reinforcing the feeling of "reliving" the films through music. The Palacio de Congresos, accustomed to hosting symphonic concerts and large cultural events, offers the acoustics and capacity necessary for the experience to be immersive without losing comfort. For lovers of cinema and orchestral music, it is an opportunity to hear live, in a single evening, a large part of the soundtrack of their memories.
