The Holiday in Concert - Film with Live Orchestra

A screening of the 2006 romantic comedy The Holiday with a live orchestra playing its score, presented at the SEC Armadillo in Glasgow. It belongs to the film concerts and scores strand.

The Holiday is a 2006 romantic comedy written and directed by Nancy Meyers. It follows two women who swap homes at Christmas, one in Los Angeles and the other in a village in England. In this format the film is shown on screen while a live orchestra performs its music alongside the picture, so the soundtrack is heard in person rather than from a recording.

The concert sits within film concerts and scores, a repertoire built around screen music played by an orchestra. The night will suit those who know the film and want to hear its music performed live, as well as anyone interested in how a film score is played in concert.

The SEC Armadillo is a venue in Glasgow that hosts concerts and shows. Its programme of live film events places this screening among the city's other music and performance nights, giving audiences a chance to see a familiar comedy with its score played in the room.
