In BC (before COVID) times, ASO performed some pretty cool movie-themed concert series. Harry Potter and Star Wars were two you may remember. Both were standout performances by the way.

The virtual concert features selections from some of the most popular movies of all time like Beauty and the Beast, Pyscho, Titanic and more.
