Experience the thrilling action and emotion of the film like never before, with a symphony orchestra, set to transport the audience to a galaxy far, far away.
Experience the power of the force live!
The world-renowned score by Oscar®-winning composer John Williams will be performed live by the FILMharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Erik Ochsner. For the occasion, the remastered 1983 film will be shown in its original English version, with French subtitles.
Through the epic adventures of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Princess Leia, music and film lovers will relive the final chapter of George Lucas’ mythical trilogy. The story is well known: As the Rebel Alliance strives to destroy the Death Star, Luke Skywalker must face Darth Vader and the Emperor in a battle that will determine the fate of the galaxy.
“This is the third and final chapter of an incredible journey with the FILMharmonic Orchestra. Since 2019, we have been bringing the legendary Star Wars saga and its incredible scores to life in an unforgettable fashion,” says Ochsner, who is considered by audiences and critics alike to be one of the leading film-with-live-orchestra conductors due to his energy, attention to detail and precise synchronization.
