Amadeus - Live
- Links, Credits & Journaling
- JOURNALING: On Friday, March 6, we were in attendance for the showing of the 1984 Academy Award-winning film, Amadeus, on a massive screen accompanied by the Columbus Symphony and Chorus providing the music and song. Fascinating to watch and see.
Principal Pops Conductor Stuart Chafetz sits at the control screen which enables him to sync the orchestra and chorus with the film.
The film presents a fictional drama between Antonio Salieri, Music Director to the court at Vienna, and the young composer Mozart.
F. Murray Abraham played Salieri, earning an Academy Award for Best Actor.
The role of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart earned Tom Hulce a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor.
