Concert Overview

Experience the soundtracks of cinema’s most iconic moments performed by the musician who helped create them. Eric Rigler, recognized as the world’s most recorded uilleann piper and whistler, brings the soaring melodies of Hollywood to the stage for a sophisticated evening of film music. From the haunting strains of Braveheart and Titanic to the driving energy of How to Train Your Dragon, this performance highlights the raw emotional power that the bagpipes and pennywhistle lend to the silver screen.

Alongside the rugged, frontier themes of Last of the Mohicans, the ensemble will deliver an evocative rendition of music from The Godfather. This is a high-caliber musical event designed for film enthusiasts and fans of world-class instrumentation alike, celebrating the definitive sounds of modern cinematography.
