Overview
From the Rai Arturo Toscanini Auditorium, conductor John Axelrod presents three distinct moments of great music inspired by three iconic films: the Symphonic Dances from Leonard Bernstein’s *West Side Story*, which, before being adapted for the cinema (twice: in 1961, directed by Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise, and in 2021, directed by Steven Spielberg), was one of Broadway’s greatest hits; the Orchestral Suite from Federico Fellini’s La Strada, featuring the famous music of Nino Rota; and the Suite from Star Wars, the film saga created by George Lucas in 1977 with music by John Williams.
