Opus 3 Artists is pleased to offer Philharmonia Fantastique: The Making of the Orchestra<\/em> to orchestras worldwide. The\u00a0<\/em>25-minute multi-media concerto was created by GRAMMY-winning composer, Mason Bates <\/a>in collaboration with a multi-Oscar-winning creative team. The animated film flies through the instruments of the orchestra to explore the fundamental connections between music, sound, performance, creativity and technology. Guided by a magical Sprite, the film shows violin strings vibrate, brass valves slice air, and drum heads resonate. Imaginatively blending traditional and modern animation styles, it is a kinetic and compelling guide to the orchestra that engagingly illustrates the intricacies of how instruments work individually and collectively to produce such a huge range of sound.<\/p>\n

Philharmonia Fantastique<\/em>\u2019s GRAMMY-winning soundtrack was recorded by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and conducted by Edwin Outwater for Sony Classical in 2022. Co-commissioned by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, San Francisco Symphony, National Symphony Orchestra, Dallas Symphony Orchestra, Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and the American Youth Symphony – this new work and film has been performed in subscription, family and schools\u2019 concerts across the US and UK. In January 2023, the first-ever hands on installation opened at The Reach at The Kennedy Center in Washington DC which featured an array of arts projects inspired by Philharmonia Fantastique<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The magical intersection between music and technology is a central tenet of Mason Bates\u2019 career, from his GRAMMY-winning opera The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs<\/em> to his work as a DJ and curator for series like San Francisco\u2019s Mercury Soul and KC Jukebox at the Kennedy Center.<\/p>\n
