Some of cinema’s most unforgettable moments would be unthinkable without music. Horror and Thriller Night explores the darker side of film scoring — tension, silence, dissonance, atmosphere and the music that makes an audience afraid before anything has even appeared on screen.

At its centre stands Christopher Young, joined by guests Chris Bacon, Charlie Clouser and Elia Cmiral, with the scores performed live by Czech National Symphony Orchestra.

An immersive orchestral evening dedicated to the composers and scores that turned fear into music.
