LOS ANGELES (AP) - The film academy is hosting a special concert as part of its celebration of the 90th Academy Awards.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced Thursday that the Los Angeles Philharmonic will perform new arrangements of all five nominated scores at the Oscar Concert on Feb. 28 at Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles.

The show is open to the public. Ticket prices range from $43 to $161.

Oscar-winning composer Michael Giacchino and Oscar-winning director Pete Docter will open the evening with a discussion about the art of scoring films using clips and music from Pixar’s “Up.”

The film academy had previously staged concerts to highlight Oscar-nominated music. The most recent was in 2014.
