Dementors, Buckbeak and a time-turner make Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban a tempting return to Hogwarts. The Kansas City Symphony brings the film to Helzberg Hall in Kansas City on January 29, 2027, with John Williams' score played live by the orchestra.

This third installment shifts into darker territory. Sirius Black escapes. Buckbeak flies. Harry summons his Patronus. Hermione turns time itself. Williams captured every magical twist with music that moves from playful mischief to genuine fear, and hearing those cues played by live musicians amplifies the emotional punch.
