The Cleveland Orchestra: Harry Potter and The Sorcerer’s Stone In Concert at Blossom Music Center

Enjoying Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone on the big screen 24 years after it taught the world everything about magic, resilience, strength, and the fight between good and evil, is one thing, but to experience the film on both a giant high definition screen while one of the nation’s top orchestras perform the timeless underscore live, is an experience that simply hits differently. 

It’s a mashup of all the feelings and experiences that made you fall in love with Harry Potter, sidekicks Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and all the rest from the get-go, but enhanced into something even more magical than ever before! With the spotlight on John Williams’ iconic score - from the breathtakingly beautiful Hedwig’s Theme in its original form to every other theme that created the musical landscape that brought the legendary story to life, you are in for one of the most enchanting experiences of the summer season! 

John Williams is without a doubt one of the musical wizards of the modern era. With the swing of his musical wand, John Williams has created one of those rare compositions that almost defines the film. From the sublime, memorable Harry Potter theme, instantly recognizable even by those who haven’t watched the films, to the dramatic, tension-filled moments, from the uplifting melodies to the magical soundscapes, from the dark and creepy themes accompanying the eerie appearances and suggestions of He Who Must Not Be Named, to the action-packed Quidditch themes, the music is drenched in mystery, the heroic, and musical mastery that underlines the ambience of the Wizarding World. 

The 100+ members strong Cleveland Orchestra has been hailed by the New York Times as “America’s most brilliant orchestra”, and “one of the finest ensembles in the country (if not the world)” - and if that is not an indication of what awaits you this summer with the annual Blossom Music Festival, then no other motivation will do. 

The iconic Blossom Music Centre is the summer home of the Cleveland Orchestra, and with its world-class performances, stunning outdoors setting, fantastic stage, restaurants, and other amenities, the venue has become a favorite among music lovers everywhere. The venue sports seating for up to 19,200 patrons spread across a reserved seating area, boxes, and a massive general admission lawn area.
