  London Symphony Orchestra Cancels U.S. Tour - They were set to play Harry Potter music

Summary:
The London Symphony Orchestra has been forced to cancel their US Tour, on which they were planning to perform scores by John Williams, such as the Prisoner of Azkaban soundtrack, due to poor ticket sales.

Article:

London Symphony Orchestra Cancels U.S. Tour

A few weeks ago TLC reported that the London Symphony Orchestra were planning to do a tour of the US. They were scheduled to perform music from soundtracks written by the likes of John Williams, including the PoA score. The "Music of Hollywood" tour, as it was named, has now been cancelled due to bad ticket sales for the event.

Quote:
Bown said he hopes to reschedule the tour for dates in 2006, when the London Symphony Orchestra is again available. He said his relationship with the celebrated London orchestra is ''still intact.''

Quote:
Jeff Bown, the Nashville-based promoter who organized the ''Music of Hollywood'' tour, yesterday blamed the cancellation in part on the unsettled economy, which he says leaves potential patrons less willing to part with disposable income.
Quote:
Bown was hoping the Nashville stop would bring as many as 10,000 movie lovers to the arena for music from such popular films as Harry Potter, Titanic, The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Indiana Jones and The Pink Panther.
Quote:
Ticketmaster officials said ticket holders seeking refunds should return to the outlets where they purchased tickets. Those who bought tickets by phone or online should call Ticketmaster at 255-9600 for information on how to proceed.

I wish I had known about this, I would have bought tickets. Can you imagine all of the "normal" concert goers suddenly surrounded by kids in Hogwarts cloaks?

Darn, I really would have liked to have seen them. I'm not too upset though, because I saw John Williams play with the Boston Symphony Orchestra a year ago, and they played the Harry Potter suite.

Some say they cannot afford to advertise. They mistake. They cannot afford NOT to advertise.
