Bram Stoker’s Dracula In Concert’ is an original production created in coordiantion with Sony Pictures and coproduced with Krakow Film Music Festival (FMF). It is the first time that these two film music festivals join forces to create a show of such magnitude. Recently, the festival producers behind FIMUCITÉ and FMF, in partnership with Robert Townson Productions, have signed a deal with the German agency Europäische Filmphilharmonie GmbH for the worldwide distribution of the concert. This is a considerable commitment by FIMUCITÉ following the success sown by last year’s live-to-picture concert dedicated to the film ‘Close Encounters of the Third Kind’ by Steven Spielberg, and music by John Williams.

FIMUCITÉ 13, which is directed by renowned Spanish composer and conductor Diego Navarro, runs from September 20th– 29th with the support and sponsorship of the Cabildo de Tenerife, the Canary Islands Government, Santa Cruz de Tenerife City Council, Audi Canarias, Dorada Especial and the Teleférico del Teide, and the collaboration of SGAE – the Spanish General Society of Authors and Publishers, amongst others.
