The Colorado Symphony Orchestra plays Nicholas Hooper's score live while Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix runs on screen above the stage at Boettcher Hall. The orchestra carries every cue in real time, so the darker, more urgent turns in this fifth film land with an immediacy the movie alone doesn't give you.
Expect a full symphonic sound suited to Hooper's writing, heavier on strings and brass than the earlier films in the series. Fans of the books and movies get the story they know, backed by a live orchestra reading it note for note.
