Relive the 2014 Oscar-winning film Whiplash – starring Miles Teller and J.K. Simmons and written and directed by Damien Chazelle – in a mesmerizing live concert conducted by Justin Hurwitz. Featuring an 18-piece jazz big band and world-class drummer Greyson Nekrutman, you’ll experience fantastic music and thrilling drum solos performed along with the film, which tells the story of an ambitious young drummer studying at an elite conservatory, and the ruthless instructor who pushes him to the brink in the pursuit of greatness.
