A Note from the composer, Mark Knopfler To have been a part of The Princess Bride gives me enormous pride and joy. To me, the picture has never lost an ounce of its freshness and charm. I couldn’t be more delighted to see it finding more devotees around the world with every passing year. Now, to hear the score in the hands of a brilliant orchestral arranger, conductor, and players, is an added privilege. I hope you have a wonderful evening in their company along with the many memories the film has created. Mark Knopfler is an acclaimed British singer-songwriter, guitarist, and record producer, who has composed several film scores, including The Princess Bride. He is best known as the lead singer, lead guitarist, and songwriter of internationally celebrated rock band, Dire Straits. Tonight’s program is a presentation of the complete film The Princess Bride with a live performance of the movie’s entire score, including music played by the orchestra during the end credits. Out of respect for the musicians and your fellow audience members, please remain seated until the conclusion of the performance. © Princess Bride, Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
