The concert will be performed live by Scotland’s National Orchestra and the RSNO Youth Chorus, which also recently performed with Nicola Benedetti, Sheku Kanneh-Mason and Benjamin Grosvenor.
They will be joined by conductor Stephen Bell, who has conducted at the Proms on multiple occasions, including the Doctor Who Prom in 2008, the Family Matinee Prom in 2012 and the CBeebies Proms in 2014.
Meanwhile, to add to the magic of the evening, presenter Jerome Dowling will be dressed as Gilderoy Lockhart for the concerts.
Patrick Barrett, RSNO Youth Chorus director, said: “It’s very special for us to perform the music of Harry Potter, film scores that now have a real resonance with the people and landscapes of Scotland.
“It’s great for the orchestra and youth chorus to see audiences of all ages at our film concerts and it’s wonderful to think that for many this might be their first interaction with live classical music.
“The RSNO is well-known for its performances and recordings of film music and this concert will see iconic soundtracks by composers including John Williams and Patrick Doyle, the RSNO’s 2023:24 Composer in Residence, brought to life on stage. I look forward to welcoming audiences in Dundee for what promises to be a magical night!”
