Palau de la Música Catalana, Barcelona

18:30h

Without music there is no epic; without epic, there are no heroes and without heroes and heroines there is no cinema. Who then is the first hero? The composer. The god that makes the movie fly. Today, John Williams: Hero of heroes. It has already been said that without John Williams sharks wouldn't be scary, dinosaurs wouldn't walk the earth, there wouldn't be lives saving entire worlds, aliens wouldn't communicate with us and dark knights would rule the galaxies. His music has made the dreams of cinema real and eternal. That's how heroes are.

The dubbing actor, Salvador Vidal, will voice the script by Jordi Cos to link each piece of music. We will listen to the most celebrated musical pages in the history of cinema enlivened by one of the most recognized voices responsible for dubbing the original voice of Liam Nesson, Ed Harris, Mel Gibson, Sam Neil or Richard Dreyfuss, among others. For one more season, the Simfònica del Vallès will make visible the most invisible actors in cinema: music and the voice of the voice actor.

Musical show with narrations in Spanish.
Images of films that may hurt the viewer's sensibilities will be shown.
