Strauss, and Ligeti's Lux Aeterna featuring the voices of the Bremerton Symphony Chorale (LeeAnne Campos, music director) employed as instruments in the orchestra. A highlight is Bach's Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor from The Godfather in Leopold Stokowski's orchestral arrangement. John Williams' Theme from E.T. joins the program as the single piece actually scored for film.
