May The Music Be With You 50 jaar STAR WARS - Een muzikale lezing met ROBIN BROOS

“A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...” In 1977, space history is written. The first Star Wars marks the beginning of one of the most iconic musical sagas in film history: composer John Williams creates the soundtrack for no fewer than three trilogies. But the music of this space opera reaches far beyond the films themselves.

Film journalist and enthusiastic storyteller Robin Broos (The Original Soundtrack, Brokken en Broos, De Spreekbeurt) guides you through half a century of Star Wars music, filled with surprising stories and juicy trivia. Which character did John Williams forget to give a theme? Which woman charmed him into staying on the project longer? Why was a Belgian chosen to lead the biggest Star Wars music project ever? What is the singer of Toto doing on the Return of the Jedi soundtrack? And what music do the characters in the Star Wars universe listen to themselves?

'May The Music Be With You' is a musical journey for everyone who can hum the Star Wars theme without thinking — and who secretly imitates the sound of a lightsaber from time to time.
