Step into a realm where gothic fantasy and cinematic imagination collide. This year, The Great British Film Orchestra embarks on a spellbinding UK-wide tour, presenting The Music of Tim Burton, Danny Elfman & Beyond – an orchestral journey through the iconic film scores that have become inseparable from Burton’s unmistakable vision. For more than four decades, Danny Elfman has been the musical voice behind Tim Burton’s most beloved creations. From the whimsical innocence of Edward Scissorhands and the macabre charm of Beetlejuice to the gothic grandeur of Batman (1989) , Sleepy Hollow , Corpse Bride and The Nightmare Before Christmas , Elfman’s extraordinary compositions blend mischievous melodies and haunting orchestration into some of cinema’s most recognisable music. His scores effortlessly shift between beauty and darkness, creating soundscapes as unforgettable as the films themselves. But the journey doesn’t end there. This show also celebrates the wider musical universe beyond Burton’s cinematic legacy, featuring unforgettable themes that capture the same spirit audiences have come to love. From Harry Potter , Casper & E.T. to The Silence of the Lambs , The Sixth Sense & Psycho , this concert brings together music that celebrates the wonderfully strange. Bringing these extraordinary scores to the stage is The Great British Film Orchestra , one of the UK’s premier ensembles dedicated to the music of film. Renowned for their rich, cinematic sound and immersive performances, this chamber orchestra transforms every concert into a theatrical experience, transporting audiences through enchanted forests, haunted mansions, moonlit graveyards and fantastical worlds where the impossible feels beautifully real.
