Following their sold out premier performance last month, the force is back!
The crew that brought you “Gamer Jazz: the Music of Video Games” returns to pay homage to the intergalactic compositions of John Williams. Few composers have such an enduring legacy in popular culture, and the themes from Star Wars are parsecs ahead of the rest!
“The Empire Strikes up the Band” is a journey through the musical worlds of Star Wars, from the sweeping majesty of “Binary Sunset”, to the heart-pounding action of “Duel of the Fates”, and even some compositions by the legendary Max Reebo!
