The event will feature the Hollywood Symphony Orchestra playing live-to-picture all the songs from the film during a special screening of the Elton John biopic. John and Taron Egerton, who portrayed him in the critically acclaimed film, will join the orchestra for a special performance.
“I’m thrilled to debut Rocketman: Live in Concert,” said Elton John. “I can think of no better city than Los Angeles to bring the magic of this movie to life and perform live with the Hollywood Symphony Orchestra. I can’t wait for the audience to experience the film in a new and profound way.”
Under the direction of Principal Conductor John Beal, the Hollywood Symphony Orchestra will perform the instrumental score from the epic music fantasy which depicts an uncensored look at John’s breakthrough years. The film’s music producer, Giles Martin will produce the music for the performance. The event is from Endeavor Content and Black Ink Presents.
