Light - Man
Headphoneus Supremus
Went to see Amadeus on Friday evening at the NCH Dublin. The entire film was projected onto a large screen and accompanied by a live orchestra and choir.
It was a very memorable occasion and a compelling movie. It was the first time for us to see the movie. At the end of the movie (when the credits were rolling), the concert finished off with a live piano piece (which seems to have been an additional piece to the movie). I will try to remember which piece it was and post it here.

Unmissable – the most famous film ever made about classical music screened with live orchestra and choir for the first time in Ireland!
Winner of eight Academy Awards®, Amadeus works as a passionate drama, a sumptuous period epic and the perfect celebration of Mozart’s sublime music. F. Murray Abraham is brilliant as rival composer Salieri, consumed with jealousy of the musical gifts bestowed to the vulgar young Mozart while at the same time transfixed by his genius.
The music introduced millions to Mozart’s symphonies, operas and the extraordinary requiem.
A compelling story of ambition and obsession with some of the best music ever written performed live, this will be a feast for the eyes and ears and one of the events of the year!
Amadeus Live is a production of Avex Classics International. Presented by RTÉ Concert Orchestra"
A few videos selected by me. Edit: The second movement piano solo is not far off from what was played at the end of the concert. What a splendid job Yeol Eum Son does!
