A UK tour of Todd Phillips’ Joker accompanied by a live orchestra playing composer Hildur Guðnadóttir’s award-winning score gets underway on September 26th at London’s Eventim Apollo.
The performance will be conducted by Jeff Atmajian – conductor and orchestrator of the original soundtrack – with tour organiser Senbla’s Dave Mahoney conducting the rest of the UK Tour dates.
Hildur Guðnadóttir said: “I’m thrilled to get to see and hear Joker in the cinema with a live orchestra.
“When we recorded the music, the orchestra brought such depth and detailed attention to the performances that we were all literally holding our breaths during most of the recording sessions.
“It was a beautiful trip. I’m so happy to get to go there again and for an audience to experience that too.”
Director Todd Phillips added: “I speak for the entire Joker team when I say how thrilled we are to be working with Senbla and Ollie Rosenblatt on Joker – Live In Concert.
“I think it’s a wonderful way for audiences to experience Hildur Guðnadóttir‘s haunting and immersive score while bearing witness to Joaquin Phoenix’s descent into madness as Arthur.”
