Hudson Valley Chorale Concert - Let's Go to the Movies

Music scored for the movies helps propel the story line forward without being obtrusive. It accentuates the emotions, putting the movie-goer within the action of the scene. Many movies incorporate sung music to aid the story-telling. This spring, the Hudson Valley Chorale will illustrate the importance of this by taking its audience back in time to remember some of their favorite movies in song.

Whether the song is from a musical or a dramatic cinematic offering, it jogs the memory and creates a mental image of what occurred on the screen when the piece was sung. The concert program will draw from such favorites as The Wizard of Oz, Fiddler on the Roof, Sweet Charity, and other musicals as well as dramatic scores from Empire of the Sun and Prince of Egypt.

I think you will agree that none of these movies would have had the same impact without these songs. Think back to when you first saw these movies, and consider that it was the music that helped to make them memorable.
