New Jersey Symphony presents Jaws in Concert

(NEWARK, NJ) -- Relive the thrilling suspense of Jaws as the New Jersey Symphony plays the iconic score in sync with the film projected on the big screen. Coming to three New Jersey venues October 28–30, tickets are on sale now online at njsymphony.org or by phone at 1.800.ALLEGRO (255.3476).

This original summer movie blockbuster, with an Academy Award®-winning score by composer John Williams, becomes an unforgettable film-with-live-orchestra experience! Directed by Academy Award® winner Steven Spielberg, Jaws set the standard for edge-of-your-seat suspense, quickly becoming a cultural phenomenon and forever changing the movie industry. When the seaside community of Amity finds itself under attack by a dangerous great white shark, the town’s chief of police, a young marine biologist and a grizzled shark hunter embark on a desperate quest to destroy the beast before it strikes again.

Featuring an unforgettable score that evokes pure terror, Jaws remains one of the most influential and gripping adventures in motion picture history. Now, audiences will have the chance to experience the power of a live symphony orchestra performing the entire score in sync with one of the greatest motion pictures of all time.

Performances take place October 28 at 8:00pm at the Count Basie Center for the Arts in Red Bank, October 29 at 8:00pm at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark and October 30 at 3:00pm at State Theatre New Jersey in New Brunswick. State Theatre New Jersey co-presents the October 30 performance. Nicholas Hersh conducts.

All New Jersey Symphony performances follow safety measures in partnership with the venues and based on the guidance provided by the CDC and the State of New Jersey.
