A special screening of the 'Wicked' film, featuring a live orchestra, has been announced in partnership with Justin Hurwitz's company.

A live orchestral performance of the 'La La Land' score was saved when a 21-year-old student from the audience stepped in as a sight reader after a musician fell ill, at the request of composer Justin Hurwitz.

During a "La La Land" in Concert performance in Sydney, an audience member replaced an ill keyboardist after conductor Justin Hurwitz asked the 2500-strong crowd if anyone could sight-read keyboard.
