For the first time in Iran, a special concert of music from the Harry Potter films was held at the Espinas Palace Hotel in Tehran on May 31, with more than 6,000 people in attendance in two performances, which was extended for two more performances because of huge reception by the audience.
The Harry Potter film concert was a unique and immersive experience that combined the magic of film with the enchanting power of live music.
It featured the most memorable and key scenes from the eight beloved Harry Potter films projected on a giant screen while a live symphony orchestra performed the unforgettable score composed by the legendary John Williams and later by Patrick Doyle, Nicholas Hooper, and Alexandre Desplat.
The orchestra was conducted by Sina Kheirabadi, conductor and lecturer at Tehran University of Art and Music Conservatory, and comprised more than 100 musicians and a choir.
The show, which had previously been performed in 37 countries around the world, made Iran the 38th destination for this musical-cinematic experience.
