Philharmonia Fantastique is a 25-minute concerto for orchestra & animated film that follows a magical Sprite on a musical journey through the orchestra’s instruments. By the film’s end, the families of the orchestra overcome their differences to demonstrate “unity from diversity” in a spectacular finale. Philharmonia Fantastique was written by Mason Bates and co-created with multi Academy Award-winning Gary Rydstrom and Academy Award-nominated animation director Jim Capobianco.
