Events Description
Experience this 1984 multi-Academy Award-winning motion picture on a vast HD screen and immerse yourself in the glorious music of Mozart performed live by the TO Live Orchestra and Amadeus Choir.
Winner of eight Academy Awards including best picture, actor, director, and adapted screenplay, Milos Foreman’s sumptuous Amadeus is an aural and visual treat for all the senses. Conducted by Evan Mitchell and featuring Mozart’s celebrated music drawn from over 20 operatic and orchestral works, Amadeus Live is simply the best way for music and film lovers to experience the hit movie.
The film tells the story of Vienna court composer Antonio Salieri, and the envy that consumes him upon discovering that the divine musical gifts he has so longed for all his life have been bestowed on a bawdy, vulgar, and impish young composer, Mozart. Salieri’s envy fuels his plot to destroy the man, while all the while unable to tear himself away from the genius of his music.
Adapted from Peter Shaffer’s original stage play, Amadeus the motion picture stays true to its origins, highlighting the contrast between, as Shaffer himself described,“the sublimity of his [Mozart] music and the vulgar buffoonery of his letters,” which “read like something written by an eight-year-old.”
“Amadeus weaves a beautiful, tragic fable, enchanting to children and adults alike. It has gore, a pact with God, celebrity, a masked stranger, murder and some of the best music ever written. What other film offers half as much?” (The Guardian)
Amadeus LIVE is an Avex Classics International production. “AMADEUS” film licensed by THE SAUL ZAENTZ COMPANY.
