Immerse yourself in Steven Spielberg’s sci-fi masterpiece with John Williams’ pioneering score performed by the CSO. The film stars Richard Dreyfuss as an Indiana utility worker who experiences a close encounter with a UFO. Nominated for eight Academy Awards including Best Original Score, Close Encounters of the Third Kind remains as powerful and engrossing today as it did at its 1977 premiere.

Close Encounters of the Third Kind in Concert

Symphony Center

When you hear Judy Garland singing “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” accompanied by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, you might find yourself tapping your heels together three times as you think to yourself, “there’s no place like Orchestra Hall.” “Follow the Yellow Brick Road” with Dorothy and revel in Herbert Stothart’s beautiful score performed live by the CSO as MGM’s Technicolor classic plays on the big screen.
