Sounds of the Silver Screen

What a great time. Tonight we went to our church, Fellowship of the Woodlands and experienced a one of a kind show from the Woodlands Symphony Orchestra and the Fellowship vocalists and band. The show showcased some of the best sound of the movies. Of course the show wouldn't have been complete in my mind without some music from Back to the Future (my favorites movies of all time). Kevin did a fantastic rendition of Huey Lewis' "The Power of Love," of course from Back to the Future.We sat with my parents, my aunt Cathy and uncle Ted and Linda. Linda owns the Harding House which is the home decor shop just below our studio in Old Time Spring. It was good to see Rachel and Max there as well.

Just after intermission the symphony performed a compilation of movie soundtracks from the past 100 years. There were approximately 25 movies in all and we came about 3 shy of getting them all right. The prize for the winners were two movie passes. :( Me unfortunately didn't get Patton, Bridge Over the River Kwai and Summer's Place.

I strongly encourage everyone to go out to Fellowship of the Woodlands, of course to go to church, but also because of the music. The vocalists at the church are truly amazing and well, the band is rockin' too. :) Tonight the melding of sounds brought the amazing movies of the silver screen to life. We had a wonderful time. Hats off to the Woodlands Symphony and the Fellowship vocalists and band.
