Greetings from The Film Music Society!

For those who may find yourselves in the Los Angeles area in early May, we hope you will join us for the American Youth Symphony's first installment of The Elfman Project on Sunday, May 6, 2012 at UCLA's Royce Hall.

After a highly successful three-year presentation of The Goldsmith Project, the AYS and The Film Music Society are teaming up again for the first installment of a three-year exploration of the music of Danny Elfman.

At 4 pm, a symposium co-sponsored by The Film Music Society will feature an on-stage discussion between Elfman and film music journalist Jon Burlingame, and will also feature David Newman conducting the AYS in excerpts from Elfman's score for Errol Morris' 2008 critically acclaimed documentary Standard Operating Procedure.

At 7 pm, the American Youth Symphony concert will offer a first act of selections by Stravinsky and Bartok, conducted by Alexander Treger. The second act, hosted by Burlingame, will feature David Newman conducting excerpts from Elfman's scores for Sommersby, Edward Scissorhands (with film) and Batman.

Tickets are FREE but reservations are required! Attached is a PDF file with details. And please feel free to visit the AYS web site for more information at http://www.aysymphony.org. (The AYS is the producing entity for this event, so you must go through them for tickets. The FMS will not take reservations.)

Hope to see you there!
