Los Angeles Film Orchestra

The Los Angeles Film Orchestra is a specialized ensemble dedicated to performing film music concerts, often featuring scores from classic and contemporary movies. Under the artistic direction of Maestro Steven Allen Fox and music director Victor Pesavento, the orchestra has presented notable events such as a tribute to the composer Basil Poledouris at the Walt Disney Concert Hall in 2022. The orchestra frequently collaborates with prominent guest conductors, composers, and industry figures, and is known for combining live orchestral performances with visual elements, such as the concert "Pictures at an Exhibition: The Paintings of Bob Peak," where film music was paired with iconic illustrations by Bob Peak, conducted by Leonard Slatkin.

The Los Angeles Film Orchestra has built a reputation for celebrating film composers and their music through immersive concert experiences that often include choirs and multimedia presentations. Their programming highlights the rich legacy of film music, bridging both nostalgic classic scores and newly commissioned works inspired by artwork and cinematic history. This makes them a distinctive presence in the Los Angeles film and music scene, bringing Hollywood's rich musical heritage to concert audiences.
