Experience David Arnold live on March 5th

David Arnold will present a concert at Usher Hall in Edinburgh on March 5th, 2027. Arnold is a British composer known for his prolific work in film and television scoring, particularly within the action, thriller, and comedy genres. His style frequently blends orchestral arrangements with electronic elements, incorporating jazz influences and a distinctive harmonic language often characterized by suspenseful textures and memorable melodic themes. He has collaborated extensively with directors such as Danny Boyle and Guy Ritchie, and is recognised for his scores to films including *Independence Day*, the *James Bond* series (*Tomorrow Never Dies*, *The World Is Not Enough*, *Die Another Day*), and *Sherlock*.

Usher Hall opened in 1879, designed by Robert Rowand Anderson. It is Edinburgh’s principal concert hall and a significant landmark within the city’s architectural heritage. Originally conceived as part of the International Exhibition of Industry, Science and Art held that year, it quickly established itself as a key venue for classical music performances. Throughout its history, Usher Hall has hosted performances by numerous internationally renowned orchestras, conductors and soloists. A major refurbishment was completed in 2009 which enhanced its acoustics and facilities while preserving its Victorian character.
