The Hot Springs/Hot Springs Village Symphony Guild is pleased to conclude its 2025–2026 Classic Concert Series with The John Williams–Steven Spielberg Collaborations: A Film Music Lecture/Performance by Members of the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra.

Arkansas Symphony Orchestra music librarian, violinist, and String Academy faculty member Dr. Geronimo Oyenard has created a special lecture-performance featuring his original arrangements for string quartet to celebrate over 50 years of the unique partnership between composer John Williams and director Steven Spielberg. The presentation will combine a live performance of many of John Williams’ most famous themes with Dr. Oyenard’s commentary on the music and films of these legendary artists. The performance will be enhanced by a projection of the corresponding film clips shown on multiple overhead screens.

The program will take place on Sunday, May 17 at 3:00 p.m. at Village Bible Church, 100 Ponderosa Way, Hot Springs Village, Arkansas.

General admission is $10. You may register for the concert in advance on the Guild website (either your confirmation or reminder email serves as your ticket) or pay at the door. The concert will last approximately one hour.
