Selbi Yomudova, the concert host, addressed the audience at the Mukams Palace of the State Cultural Center of Turkmenistan with the words: "Music and cinema are closely connected. Many films are memorable precisely because of their brilliant musical accompaniment."

The concert was dedicated to two American filmmakers—director Steven Spielberg and composer John Williams, who created many Oscar-winning films. The evening at Mukams Palace was aimed at science fiction lovers.

Fragments from films like "E.T.," "Jurassic Park," "Schindler's List," "The Terminal," "Star Wars," and others came to life on screen with live music by the State Symphony Orchestra conducted by Resul Gylyjov, Honored Artist of Turkmenistan. Notably, images of orchestra musicians were sometimes combined with film characters, placing them in thrilling, breathtaking stories, adding creativity to the perception of film music.

Then, Selbi Yomudova invited listeners to explore the work of the great Turkmen composer Nury Halmamedov in film music. Recognizable characters from films like "Kechebelek," "Serdar," and "The Decisive Step" appeared on screen. Nury Halmamedov's music skillfully highlighted dramatic situations on screen. Older listeners nostalgically received the scenes and music of these films.

The concert ended with cheerful notes from the film "The Imperial March." The playful motif of film music had a relaxing effect on musicians and was transmitted from the stage to the audience. To this music, one could tap their feet and clap hands.

To applause, soloists Selbi Myulkamova (violin) and Yusup Ovezov (clarinet) took the stage.

Conductor Resul Gylyjov thanked the audience for their growing interest in the work of the State Symphony Orchestra and announced that on November 9, on the same stage, the theme of film music would continue with a concert dedicated to the 80th birthday of Rejep Rejepov, a talented composer who left a touching light in Turkmen films with his music.
