About This Performance

Experience the film that launched a galaxy—bigger, bolder, and live in concert.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away… Star Wars: A New Hope changed cinema forever. Now, relive the epic adventure on the big screen as Symphony San Jose performs John Williams's iconic score live, perfectly synchronized to the film.

From the instantly recognizable opening fanfare to the sweeping themes of heroism and destiny, Williams's music is the heartbeat of the saga. Experience every triumphant brass call and shimmering string passage as Luke Skywalker begins his journey, Princess Leia defies the Empire, Han Solo takes a chance on heroism, and the Rebel Alliance makes its stand.

This one-of-a-kind experience brings new power to a story generations have loved. Celebrating 50 years since it first captivated audiences, this beloved classic with live orchestral accompaniment is an unforgettable celebration of storytelling, cinema, and symphonic music.

May the Force be with you—live.
