Join us for an unforgettable evening on May 10th at Foothills PAC as the Catskill Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Artistic Director Glen Cortese, presents our Annual Wendy Brown Memorial Concert featuring the legendary film scores of John Williams!

Immerse yourself in the magical world of cinema as we perform iconic compositions from some of the most beloved films of all time, including Harry Potter, Star Wars, Superman, Lincoln, The Cowboys, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and more!

John Williams, with his 53 Academy Award nominations and five wins, has created some of the most recognizable and beloved musical themes in film history. His masterful compositions have not only enhanced countless cinematic experiences but have transcended the silver screen to become cultural touchstones. From the heart-pounding Imperial March of Star Wars to the whimsical magic of Harry Potter and the soaring heroism of Superman, Williams' music continues to captivate audiences of all ages.

The evening will be expertly guided by our Master of Ceremonies, Doug Decker - a celebrated Oneonta musician and actor whose vibrant personality and deep appreciation for the arts has made him a cherished figure in our local performing arts community.
