Thanks to the latest genetic technology, a team of researchers commissioned by multi-billionaire John Hammond (Sir Richard Attenborough) resurrects the dinosaurs. Hammond's plan: A spectacular theme park with the prehistoric giants. Welcome to Jurassic Park! With “Jurassic Park” in 1993, director Steven Spielberg achieved a box office hit and paved the way for modern special effects cinema. The mixture of monster spectacle, science fiction and snappy dialogue not only achieved cult status, but has also developed into a successful franchise with six films to date . The film music by composer John Williams is as iconic as the dinosaurs. At the beginning, his music emphasizes the overwhelming grace of the resurrected prehistoric giants with noble brass and beautiful strings, before it announces the looming catastrophe with a lot of percussion and rising dissonances after the initial nobility. Head to Jurassic Park with the 80-piece City Light Symphony Orchestra and John Williams' fantastic, powerful score and experience the classic adventure like never before!
