Chicago Sinfonietta will perform a live concert screening of Jordan Peele's 2018 smash film film Get Out, conducted by score composer Michael Abels, at the Auditorium Theatre, 50 East Ida B. Wells Dr., on Saturday, Sept. 21, at 7:30 p.m.
Nominated for four Academy Awards including Best Picture, Get Out is a film that is equal parts thriller and social commentary.
Chicago orchestra and film composer Michael Abels will conduct the Chicago Sinfonietta for the first time ever. However, he has a nearly three-decade-long relationship with the orchestra, which first performed one of his pieces.
