BLOCKBUSTER SOUNDTRACKS AT SOSL POPS

View(s):

The Symphony Orchestra of Sri Lanka takes you on a whirlwind journey of timeless classics and blockbuster soundtracks at its annual SOSL POPS concert on the 16th and 17th of September at the Bishop’s College Auditorium with a promise of an extraordinary evening of film soundtracks guaranteed to have all film enthusiasts asking for more.

Under the baton of Dushyanthi Perera, the programme gains added lustre with four amazing soloists Bhathiya Jayakody, Shehara Liyanage, Dinushka Jayawickreme and Amandhi Caldera.

The sweeping grandeur of the Symphonic Suite from the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring and The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe from The Chronicles of Narnia aptly open the curtains for a programme replete with classic film and Broadway hits, which have over decades serenaded, entertained and regaled audiences around the world. Whether it’s some swinging jazz that is so archetypically George and Ira Gershwin or some toe taps in the Salute to Ol’ Blue Eyes arranged by John Boss, a medley from Chicago reminiscent of the emotive nuances of passion, jealousy and hate or the story of the star-crossed lovers from Casablanca, the orchestral scores accompanying expressive solo voices revert you to eras past or times of the future.

SOSL POPS is sponsored by First Capital Holdings PLC and supported by SriLankan Airlines, the Airline Sponsor with creative partner JWT and electronic media sponsors Yes Fm, TV1 and Legends 966.
