Musicians on stage QSO

According to QSO Director – Artistic Planning Matthew Wood, "John Williams is the second most-nominated individual in Oscars history, behind Walt Disney, and his work is so iconic that I daresay there won’t be a single piece within our two-hour presentation that the audience doesn’t instantly recognise."

QSO performing on stage

“It’s always a huge privilege to perform an evening of his work and it’s a testament to his craft and popularity that his scores are as beloved by our musicians as they are by the audiences.”
