Legendary American film composer John Williams conducts the Berliner Philharmoniker for the first time just months before his 90th birthday! It was “one of those great evenings” headlined the Tagesspiegel. Whether Star Wars, Harry Potter or Indiana Jones – the symphonic Hollywood sounds on the stage of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra thrilled the audience from the first note. The album John Williams – The Berlin Concert celebrates “arguably the greatest soundtrack composer of all time” (Rolling Stone) and captures the impressive energy of this unique concert – performed by one of the world’s finest orchestras. Under Williams’ direction, the musicians imbue the thrilling selection of his scores with a masterful beauty of sound and extraordinary intensity. “John Williams doesn’t need the movies, the movies need him,” Rolling Stone wrote after the concert. The album features music from Harry Potter, Jurassic Park, Superman and, of course, Star Wars, among others. The album is not only available as a limited 2 CD edition in a high-quality digipack with a noble gold foil look on the cover, but also as a limited LP set with two 180g vinyls as well as a limited Deluxe Edition, download and stream. The Deluxe Edition contains the unique concert experience on 2 CDs and as the only product also the concert video on 2 BluRays as stereo, surround 5.1 as well as Dolby Atmos surround sound in a high-quality digipack in DVD format
