This concert will reacquaint you with old favorites by John Williams, Ennio Morricone and Danny Elfman, but also introduce you to the spicy sounds of “Meera Joota Hai Japani,” “Jai Ho,” and “Badtameez Dil,” sung by Akshay Hari.

Visit the website for more information on purchasing tickets and other details. Anthony Reilly and Rosemary Muldoon have grown up next to each other on two farms in rural Ireland. Rosemary fell in love with Anthony at the age of 6, and is convinced that he will eventually be with her. Anthony had his heart broken as a young man, and hasn’t dared open it to another woman since. Forty years later, the two of them are still neighbors. With a small land feud happening between the two families, it seems unlikely that a romance will ever happen.
