Performance NotesAfter a hugely successful sell-out world premiere performance at the Royal Albert Hall in 2013, and a further two performances in December 2014, Danny Elfman’s Music from the Films of Tim Burton returns to the Hall for its tenth anniversary.

These live concerts feature Danny Elfman’s famous Tim Burton film scores brought to life on stage by the BBC Concert Orchestra and Crouch End Festival Chorus, conducted by John Mauceri, and enhanced by visuals on the big screen of Burton’s original sketches, drawings and storyboards. It will also feature live performances from Danny Elfman and violinist Sandy Cameron.

With a range of films from a fascinating back catalogue of classics including Beetlejuice, Batman, Edward Scissorhands, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Alice in Wonderland and Frankenweenie, this concert explores the collaborative relationship between music and storytelling and the process and importance that this has in filmmaking.

“I can’t believe that it’s been 10 years since I first performed this concert. And this is the perfect place to celebrate the anniversary since my very first time performing this was at the Royal Albert Hall, so I’m very excited and grateful that I get to bring it back there.” – Danny Elfman.
