The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - RuhrCongress


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Program Info:
If you wanted to list how many famous soundtracks John Williams composed, it's easier to achieve your goal by considering which blockbuster he didn't provide the music for. Above all, the close collaboration with directors such as Steven Spielberg and George Lucas has made him immortal, and melodies such as the famous Star Wars theme, the music for Jaws or Hedwig's theme from the Harry Potter soundtrack are among the most listened to pieces worldwide. Williams celebrated his 90th birthday in 2022 and continues to impress with unbroken productivity. It's high time that the Philharmonic Orchestra dedicated an entire concert to John Williams' life's work.

Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Ziggo Dome

Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

If you wanted to list how many famous soundtracks John Williams composed, it's easier to achieve your goal by considering which blockbuster he didn't provide the music for. Above all, the close collaboration with directors such as Steven Spielberg and George Lucas has made him immortal, and melodies such as the famous Star Wars theme, the music for Jaws or Hedwig's theme from the Harry Potter soundtrack are among the most listened to pieces worldwide. Williams celebrated his 90th birthday in 2022 and continues to impress with unbroken productivity. It's high time that the Philharmonic Orchestra dedicated an entire concert to John Williams' life's work.

Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Pablo González, chief conductor of the RTVE Symphony Orchestra, will top off the programme with an imposing work which will be joined by the Orfeón Donostiarra and mezzo-soprano Olesya Petrova: Sergey Prokofiev's cantata Alexander Nevsky, a stage adaptation of the soundtrack that the Ukrainian created for Sergey Eisenstein's film of the same name about Alexander Nevsky, Prince of Novgorod, who rejected the invasion of Swedes and Teutons in the 13th century.

Program Info:
China Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra
Conductor, Daye Lin
Tamsin Waley-Cohen, violin
Jiapeng Nie, cello

This rare visit from a Chinese orchestra comes with an unashamedly spectacular line-up. Tan Dun’s brilliantly evocative music from the hit movie, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon sets the scene for two contrasting showpieces for violin, performed by British violinist Tamsin Waley-Cohen. Saint-Saëns’ 1867 Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso was dedicated to the famed virtuoso Pablo de Sarasate and its darting brilliance was tailored to his impregnable technique. Chausson’s free-flowing Poème presents an equally steep challenge to the soloist, its rhapsodic and moody character inspired by Eugène Ysaÿe’s feverish expressive playing. Two of Respighi’s technicolour symphonic poems – inspired by famous sights in and around Rome – ensure a suitably cinematic finale.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Stadthalle am Schloss - Kirchner Saal


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

In »The Book of Water« (after Max Frisch), the Dutch composer Michel van der Aa describes a man's attempts to put his life in order. He is cut off from the outside world by an environmental catastrophe caused by masses of water. Thrown back on himself, he begins to record his thoughts in the style of an encyclopedia. But the project eludes him, structures of memory and knowledge dissolve altogether. The Book of Water intensely conjures up the threat of memory loss and personality dissolution.

The National Orchestra of Metz Grand Est features this cousin of the clarinet under the expert fingers of Vincent David. However, from the fanfare composed for the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles to the illustrious march of Indiana Jones , it is the brass instruments that take centre stage in John Williams' film scores! With the twirling "Hedwig's Theme" from Harry Potter , the ample theme from Jurassic Park or the poignant "Hymn to the Dead" from Saving Private Ryan , the Hollywood composer nevertheless shows that he masters all registers.

Contemporary music is what can best speak to us about the problems of the present, and in her work At the Aegean Shores, the Basque-Belgian composer Saskia Venegas denounces the humanitarian drama taking place in the waters of the Mediterranean. The sea is also a dispenser of tragedy in Benjamin Britten's opera Peter Grimes, from where the beautiful and disturbing Four Sea Interludes that separate the different acts come from. Pablo González, chief conductor of the RTVE Symphony Orchestra, will top off the programme with an imposing work which will be joined by the Orfeón Donostiarra and mezzo-soprano Olesya Petrova: Sergey Prokofiev's cantata Alexander Nevsky, a stage adaptation of the soundtrack that the Ukrainian created for Sergey Eisenstein's film of the same name about Alexander Nevsky, Prince of Novgorod, who rejected the invasion of Swedes and Teutons in the 13th century.

Tamsin Waley-Cohen, violin
Jiapeng Nie, cello

This rare visit from a Chinese orchestra comes with an unashamedly spectacular line-up. Tan Dun’s brilliantly evocative music from the hit movie, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon sets the scene for two contrasting showpieces for violin, performed by British violinist Tamsin Waley-Cohen. Saint-Saëns’ 1867 Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso was dedicated to the famed virtuoso Pablo de Sarasate and its darting brilliance was tailored to his impregnable technique. Chausson’s free-flowing Poème presents an equally steep challenge to the soloist, its rhapsodic and moody character inspired by Eugène Ysaÿe’s feverish expressive playing. Two of Respighi’s technicolour symphonic poems – inspired by famous sights in and around Rome – ensure a suitably cinematic finale.

Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Bürgerhalle Gronau


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The National Orchestra of Metz Grand Est features this cousin of the clarinet under the expert fingers of Vincent David. However, from the fanfare composed for the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles to the illustrious march of Indiana Jones , it is the brass instruments that take centre stage in John Williams' film scores! With the twirling "Hedwig's Theme" from Harry Potter , the ample theme from Jurassic Park or the poignant "Hymn to the Dead" from Saving Private Ryan , the Hollywood composer nevertheless shows that he masters all registers.

The Music Of Hans Zimmer
The Lords of the Sound - Theater National


Program Info:
The new generation orchestra LORDS OF THE SOUND returns to France
with a new program "The Music Of Hans Zimmer".

The LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra's performance is more than just a concert, it's a real show!

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

Contemporary music is what can best speak to us about the problems of the present, and in her work At the Aegean Shores, the Basque-Belgian composer Saskia Venegas denounces the humanitarian drama taking place in the waters of the Mediterranean. The sea is also a dispenser of tragedy in Benjamin Britten's opera Peter Grimes, from where the beautiful and disturbing Four Sea Interludes that separate the different acts come from. Pablo González, chief conductor of the RTVE Symphony Orchestra, will top off the programme with an imposing work which will be joined by the Orfeón Donostiarra and mezzo-soprano Olesya Petrova: Sergey Prokofiev's cantata Alexander Nevsky, a stage adaptation of the soundtrack that the Ukrainian created for Sergey Eisenstein's film of the same name about Alexander Nevsky, Prince of Novgorod, who rejected the invasion of Swedes and Teutons in the 13th century.

Program Info:

Howard Shore - Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

The pilgrimage of the “Fellowship of the ring” continues once again in a unique film performance with live music. Hobbits, elves, orcs and dwarves will come to life on a giant movie screen accompanied by a 230 member symphony orchestra, choirs and international soloists.

Due to huge audience demand following the 1st Lord of the Rings concert in December 2022, JV Classics presents the sequel to this epic fantasy – The Two Towers. Accompanied by a 230 member symphony orchestra, choir and international soloists, the spectacular projection will be performed on March 2024 at the modern O2 Universum concert hall in Prague.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, based on the book by John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, premiered in the Czech Republic on 16 January 2003 and was attended by three quarters of a million people. Although 20 years have passed since its release, this ground-breaking work has not lost a bit of its huge popularity. On the contrary, more and more generations admire its excellence. The music for the trilogy was composed by famous Howard Shore: “The wide range of music requires a symphony orchestra, mixed choir, boys’ choir and instrumental and vocal soloists singing in Tolkien’s literary languages, but of course also in English”, says the author.

The music of The Lord of the Rings is considered one of the most complex works in the field of film music. The styles and instruments from around the world illustrate and characterise the individual elements of Tolkien’s saga. Most probably it will forever remain the most famous of Howard Shore’s work, for which he received two Oscars (for The Fellowship of the Ring and The Return of the King). The third Oscar was awarded to the final song “Into the West”, sung by Annie Lennox.

“My first score for the Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Fellowship of the Ring, was the beginning of my journey into the world Tolkien and I will always hold a special fondness for the music and the experience,” said Shore. His storytelling through music and melody evident here in full, creating a perfect second blueprint to the story.

Jackson and his production team of over 2,400 people, filming on location in New Zealand with the help of 26,000 extras, filmed all three parts at once. Starring in the film are Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen, Liv Tyler, Viggo Mortensen, Cate Blanchett, Orlando Bloom, Christopher Lee, Bernard Hill, Andy Serkis, Karl Urban, Hugo Weaving, and other Hollywood stars.

Program Info:
China Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra
Conductor, Daye Lin
Tamsin Waley-Cohen, violin
Jiapeng Nie, cello

This rare visit from a Chinese orchestra comes with an unashamedly spectacular line-up. Tan Dun’s brilliantly evocative music from the hit movie, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon sets the scene for two contrasting showpieces for violin, performed by British violinist Tamsin Waley-Cohen. Saint-Saëns’ 1867 Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso was dedicated to the famed virtuoso Pablo de Sarasate and its darting brilliance was tailored to his impregnable technique. Chausson’s free-flowing Poème presents an equally steep challenge to the soloist, its rhapsodic and moody character inspired by Eugène Ysaÿe’s feverish expressive playing. Two of Respighi’s technicolour symphonic poems – inspired by famous sights in and around Rome – ensure a suitably cinematic finale.

Program Info:
Film de Pablo Berger ● Blancanieves, 2013
Music by Alfonso de Vilallonga (born in 1960) ● ONPL Musicians - Flamenco Quartet

Paying homage to silent cinema, Pablo Berger brilliantly transposes Blancanieves, the tale of the Brothers Grimm, in Andalusia in the 1920s. The orphan taken in by dwarf bullfighters, straight out of Tod Browning's Freaks, turns into a magnificent bullfighter playing banderillas in the heart of the bullring of Seville. The narration of this black and white silent film is led by an exceptional score composed by Alfonso de Vilallonga . An absolute masterpiece in which Andalusian rhythms and flamenco tunes, played live by the musicians of the ONPL led on the wire by the conductor Clément Lonca , transport us to the heart of a veritable symphony where the music speaks for the characters.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Congress Center Villach


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The Lords of the Sound - Salle Métropole


Program Info:
The new generation orchestra LORDS OF THE SOUND returns to France
with a new program "The Music Of Hans Zimmer".

The LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra's performance is more than just a concert, it's a real show!

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
Czech National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Howard Shore - O2 Universum


Program Info:
Czech National Symphony Orchestra
Howard Shore , conductor
Kühn's Mixed Choir
University art ensemble of Charles University
Foreign guests

Howard Shore - Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

The pilgrimage of the “Fellowship of the ring” continues once again in a unique film performance with live music. Hobbits, elves, orcs and dwarves will come to life on a giant movie screen accompanied by a 230 member symphony orchestra, choirs and international soloists.

Due to huge audience demand following the 1st Lord of the Rings concert in December 2022, JV Classics presents the sequel to this epic fantasy – The Two Towers. Accompanied by a 230 member symphony orchestra, choir and international soloists, the spectacular projection will be performed on March 2024 at the modern O2 Universum concert hall in Prague.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, based on the book by John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, premiered in the Czech Republic on 16 January 2003 and was attended by three quarters of a million people. Although 20 years have passed since its release, this ground-breaking work has not lost a bit of its huge popularity. On the contrary, more and more generations admire its excellence. The music for the trilogy was composed by famous Howard Shore: “The wide range of music requires a symphony orchestra, mixed choir, boys’ choir and instrumental and vocal soloists singing in Tolkien’s literary languages, but of course also in English”, says the author.

The music of The Lord of the Rings is considered one of the most complex works in the field of film music. The styles and instruments from around the world illustrate and characterise the individual elements of Tolkien’s saga. Most probably it will forever remain the most famous of Howard Shore’s work, for which he received two Oscars (for The Fellowship of the Ring and The Return of the King). The third Oscar was awarded to the final song “Into the West”, sung by Annie Lennox.

“My first score for the Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Fellowship of the Ring, was the beginning of my journey into the world Tolkien and I will always hold a special fondness for the music and the experience,” said Shore. His storytelling through music and melody evident here in full, creating a perfect second blueprint to the story.

Jackson and his production team of over 2,400 people, filming on location in New Zealand with the help of 26,000 extras, filmed all three parts at once. Starring in the film are Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen, Liv Tyler, Viggo Mortensen, Cate Blanchett, Orlando Bloom, Christopher Lee, Bernard Hill, Andy Serkis, Karl Urban, Hugo Weaving, and other Hollywood stars.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Congress Center Villach


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips.

Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination.

The new generation orchestra LORDS OF THE SOUND returns to France

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Laeiszhalle Hamburg, Großer Saal


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Zénith de Strasbourg


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Metropolis LIVE
Babylon Orchester Berlin - Babylon


Program Info:
Gottfried Huppertz - Metropolis

310 days of shooting, 36,000 extras, 200,000 costumes and what was then a gigantic budget of five million Reichsmarks – a universal, timeless theme was translated into images that have lost none of their fascination to this day. ( German Cinematheque)

Like no other film, METROPOLIS represents the heyday of German silent films made in Berlin – Babelsberg. Electricity made things move, made the nights and the asphalt glow. The engine propelled the automobile and the aeroplane, and the skyscraper grew with the elevator. Through the cinematograph, the vision / illusion of a future metropolis was projected on the white walls of the cinema palaces and the people rose from the catacombs and demanded their fair share. A new era was born and is brought to life by the Babylon Orchestra Berlin in old/new splendor on the gold-framed canvas in Babylon, built in 1929.

A thrilling journey through time into the past, a thrilling journey through time into the future.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Silent film with live music: “Der Rosenkavalier”
Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden conducted by Frank Strobel - Semperoper Dresden


Program Info:
Richard Strauss - Der Rosenkavalier

The performance of the famous silent film "Der Rosenkavalier" by Robert Wiene from 1926 is a special listening and viewing experience: under the musical direction of the specialist for silent film music Frank Strobel, the Saxon State Orchestra accompanies the version of his well, which was specially adapted by Richard Strauss for this silent film most famous opera “Der Rosenkavalier”. The whole project was as unusual as it was innovative at the time: the transfer of an opera that lives from the sung word into a silent film; the synchronisation of live orchestra and film screening; The development of our own filmic dramaturgy with the necessary scenic additions and music were all challenges that had to be mastered. The reconstructed version of the film and music from 2006 succeeded in reviving the originally intended overall composition of moving images and orchestral tone poetry and harmoniously complementing the lost conclusion of the work.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Hallenstadion


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

Berlin - Die Sinfonie der Grosstadt Live
Babylon Orchester Berlin conducted by George Morton - Das Babylon


Program Info:
A daily routine in Berlin's life, filmed in the late 1920s.

Berlin, a city awakens from sleep and becomes a legend, in 1927, five years before the end of the Weimar Republic. Electrifying!
A city before its downfall.

A kaleidoscope of impressions that convey a vivid picture of the four million metropolis: from the first dawn, when the first commuter trains arrive, until late at night, when the neon signs of the cinemas and dance palaces are reflected on the rain-soaked asphalt.

Hustle and bustle and tranquility, poverty and wealth, employees, strollers, and again and again buses, trams, trucks, subways, trains, cars, bicycles, pedestrian streams as the pulse generator of the urban rhythm: Walter Ruttmann's classic is a fascinating journey through time in the roaring twenties from Berlin.

Death and rot can be ended only by the voluntary sacrifice of a beautiful woman, who makes Nosferatu forget the rising sun. Undead fear the light of enlightenment. A symphony of death accompanied by the Babylon Orchestra Berlin.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Georg-Friedrich-Händel Halle


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Excerpt from the musical program:
The Lion King
Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator
Pearl Harbour
Interstellar

Dunkirk
Inception
Earth
Da Vinci Code

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - La Seine Musicale


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Program Info:
Charles Chaplin - Modern Times

You will laugh, you will cry and you will never forget the film.

Modern Times, USA 1936, R: Charlie Chaplin with Charles Chaplin, Paulette Goddard, Al Ernest Garcia, 89 min, OF

Charlie Chaplin is again in search of his little bit of happiness.
This time it's not for gold in Alaska, he tries to find a "normal" life with his hands work.

But the machines, the circumstances, many of the fellow human beings, lack the reference to what Chaplin wants to tell us.

Yet he cannot speak at all, he is mute! He dances, he gesticulates, and in the end he runs away.

It is an escape. But fortunately he finds the woman of his dreams first.
And so they go off into the distance, two by two, into the land of dreams on Highway 61. Revisited.

Subjected to the infernal production rate of the factory, a model worker suddenly has a nervous breakdown and goes mad.

From hospital, to prison, to unemployment, the Little Tramp gets caught up in the sprockets and cogs of modern industrialisation.
That is, until he comes across a beautiful orphaned gamine, whom he helps escape from the police.

How to break free from the constraints of modern life? Chaplin provides a critical look at productivity in the early 20th century& and well beyond!
Charlie is a factory worker in this hectic age - a minor cog in the grinding wheels of industry. His job -mechanically tightening bolts on a moving belt. The monotony of the work drives him berserk. Taken to hospital he soon recovers and is discharged, cautioned to avoid excitement. Caught in a street riot, he is mistaken for the leader and thrown into a patrol wagon.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Konzertkirche Neubrandenburg


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - La Seine Musicale


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Tribute to Ludovico Einaudi
Mystery Ensemble - Komitas Chamber Music Hall


Program Info:
А unique concert on March 31st will take place at 8.00 pm in the National Centre of Chamber Music in the heart of Yerevan. The programme of the evening includes the music Ludovico Einaudi of the world-famous Italian neoclassical composer performed by pianist Elen Harutyunyan in an intimate & relaxing atmosphere.

✨ Ludovico Einaudi presented the final part of the seven-volume musical project «Seven Days Walking» in the fall of 2019. Delightfully beautiful sketches of nature, moods and weather were made by him while walking through the snow-capped mountains of Switzerland.

Ludovico Einaudi is without a doubt one of the most prominent representatives of neoclassicism. But success and recognition were not easy for him. From childhood, the weight of the achievements of his family members dominated the Italian. Ludovico’s mother played the piano. Maternal grandfather was a composer and conductor of Italian operas. Father is a famous book publisher. Paternal grandfather — Luigi Einaudi — the first president of post-war Italy.

Metropolis LIVE
Babylon Orchester Berlin - Babylon


Program Info:
Gottfried Huppertz - Metropolis

310 days of shooting, 36,000 extras, 200,000 costumes and what was then a gigantic budget of five million Reichsmarks – a universal, timeless theme was translated into images that have lost none of their fascination to this day. ( German Cinematheque)

Like no other film, METROPOLIS represents the heyday of German silent films made in Berlin – Babelsberg. Electricity made things move, made the nights and the asphalt glow. The engine propelled the automobile and the aeroplane, and the skyscraper grew with the elevator. Through the cinematograph, the vision / illusion of a future metropolis was projected on the white walls of the cinema palaces and the people rose from the catacombs and demanded their fair share. A new era was born and is brought to life by the Babylon Orchestra Berlin in old/new splendor on the gold-framed canvas in Babylon, built in 1929.

A thrilling journey through time into the past, a thrilling journey through time into the future.

The Golden Age Of World Cinema. Ennio Morricone. Nino Rota. Michel Legrand
State Symphony Orchestra "New Russia" conducted by Arif Dadashev - Moscow State Academic Theater "Russian Song"


Program Info:
The future king of film music, Nino Rota, was born in 1911 in Milan. And already at the age of 12 he became a student at the Rome Conservatory. When he turned 15, he composed his debut opera, and two years later he graduated from the conservatory with honors.

Cinema entered Nino Rota’s life in 1933 completely unexpectedly. Being a serious composer, a professional who had received a fundamental musical education, he took on his first musical film work mainly out of curiosity and a desire to try his hand at a new genre.

His initial conviction that music should not be content with the role of a static illustration of the screen plot, but can act as an element of drama, to be the breath and pulse of the picture, grew and became stronger with each subsequent film. The best confirmation that he was on the right path was the fame and recognition that came to the composer after the films “The Road”, “Romeo and Juliet”, “Rocco and His Brothers”, “The Sweet Life”, “The Godfather”. The most famous directors of the 50-70s considered it an honor to collaborate with Nino Rota: Federico Fellini, Luchino Visconti, Franco Rossi, Damiano Damiani, Franco Zeffirelli, Francis Ford Coppola.

Ennio Morricone is the world's most famous film composer. As a film composer, he has been nominated for an Oscar five times, and in 2007 he received an Oscar for Outstanding Contribution to Cinema. In addition, in 1987, awards for the music for the film “The Untouchables.” he was awarded the Golden Globe and Grammy Among the films for which Morricone wrote music, the following should be especially noted: “A Fistful of Dollars”, “For a Few Dollars More”, “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly”, “Once Upon a Time in the West”, “Once Upon a Time in America”, “The Mission” ", "Decameron", "Professional", "The Untouchables", the television series "Octopus".

Ennio Morricone's musical taste is very difficult to accurately describe. His arrangements have always been very diverse; in them you can hear classics, jazz, Italian folklore, avant-garde, and even rock and roll. Morricone liked to use a variety of instruments, from harmonicas and horns to electric guitars, but his signature style was the use of the female voice as an instrument, set off by lush orchestration.

Contrary to popular belief, he not only created soundtracks, he also wrote chamber instrumental music, with which he even toured Europe in 1985, personally conducting the orchestra at concerts.

Twice during his career, Ennio Morricone himself starred in films for which he wrote the music, and in 1995 a documentary was made about the maestro.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Stadthalle Tuttlingen


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - ING Arena


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Against a backdrop of jazz that seems classic, Kyle Eastwood offers us a modern and open vision of his art. For this new opus with the more than evocative title, Cinematic, he has taken 11 titles from well-known films, but above all it is a total rewriting, with an acute sense of interpretation, that he offers us.

O táxi n.º 9297 (1927)
United Instruments of Lucilin Igor C Silva, electric guitar, synthesizer, electronics - Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ


Program Info:
O táxi no 9297 (1927) by Reinaldo Ferreira with a new score by Igor C Silva

The popularity of true crime is not a new phenomenon, as this Portuguese film from 1927 shows. The atmospheric contrasts and clever editing of this gripping crime drama by Reinaldo Ferreira are supported by a new score by Igor C Silva. The composer gives the Lucilin ensemble plenty of room for improvisation and takes care of the electric guitar, synthesiser and electronic effects himself.

Director Ferreira, a journalist by trade, was the Truman Capote of his time, as popular as he was criticised for his speculative crime reporting. However, when a well-known stage actress was found strangled in the street, the police investigation confirmed his hypothesis about the identity of the perpetrator. He translated the suspense that his controversial articles managed to evoke into a stylish murder mystery on film.

Wayne Marshall, conductor, piano

The RSO Vienna has a particularly varied program in store for the Chinese concert audience on its China tour in 2024. At the RSO Vienna's podium is the British conductor and pianist Wayne Marshall, who will also sit at the piano for Gershwin's famous "Rhapsody in Blue" - as the composer once did at the premiere in 1924. In “An American in Paris,” Gershwin musically processed his own impressions during a stay in Paris. The second part of the concert program is dedicated to the film music by John Williams. A special highlight of this tour are the extraordinary concert halls: half of the venues in the six Chinese cities were only opened in the last ten years and so the RSO Vienna is making its debut in the houses in Taiyuan, Nanjing and Changsha.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Konzertsaal im Kulturpalast Dresden


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The Music Of Hans Zimmer
The Lords of the Sound - Zénith d’Orléans


Program Info:
The new generation orchestra LORDS OF THE SOUND returns to France

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

Slightly sentimental, slightly rogue songs, lapidary clusters that grab you by the neck at the height of a thriller, the flavor and knowledge of this chameleon feather transcend images. Half a century of French cinema carried by the National in one evening.

Der Rosenkavalier
Rochester Symphony Orchestra - Dryden Theatre


Program Info:
Der Rosenkavalier is a 1926 Austrian silent film of the opera of the same name by Richard Strauss (music) and Hugo von Hofmannsthal (libretto). Directed by Robert Wiene, the film notably premiered at the Dresden Semperoper, which had also hosted the actual opera's premiere 15 years earlier, with Strauss conducting. Strauss' score included music not only from the opera but also sections of his Couperin Suite and a march for the Field Marshal, who appears in this version.

The music during the film's performances was provided by an orchestra and was conducted at the premiere by Richard Strauss himself. The film's projection speed had to be adjusted by the projector in order to fit the speed of the orchestra. In later performances, a special recording, also conducted by Strauss, provided the music. Strauss conducted the Vienna and London premieres and recorded excerpts from the film score on the Victrola label. A planned tour of the United States in 1927 by Strauss and his orchestra failed to go ahead because of the emergence of sound films.

At this screening, the 35mm print is being provided by the Austrian Film Archive and the live music will be presented by members of the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra.

The RSO Vienna has a particularly varied program in store for the Chinese concert audience on its China tour in 2024. At the RSO Vienna's podium is the British conductor and pianist Wayne Marshall, who will also sit at the piano for Gershwin's famous "Rhapsody in Blue" - as the composer once did at the premiere in 1924. In “An American in Paris,” Gershwin musically processed his own impressions during a stay in Paris. The second part of the concert program is dedicated to the film music by John Williams. A special highlight of this tour are the extraordinary concert halls: half of the venues in the six Chinese cities were only opened in the last ten years and so the RSO Vienna is making its debut in the houses in Taiyuan, Nanjing and Changsha.

Boléro . is very simple music It is even, according to Ravel himself, a kind of non-music in the sense that it is only a gigantic crescendo, built on two themes repeated eighteen times and marked by a haunting rhythm of bolero performed on the snare drum one hundred and sixty-nine times! Ravel's incredible orchestral work made this ballet music a worldwide success. It is this essential masterpiece that will allow young audiences to discover the orchestra and its various desks, its families of instruments, the richness of its timbres, its softness and its power. Britten's piece, conceived as a guided tour of the orchestra, completes this program placed under the sign of the discovery of one of the most marvellous instruments ever invented: the orchestra.

The RSO Vienna has a particularly varied program in store for the Chinese concert audience on its China tour in 2024. At the RSO Vienna's podium is the British conductor and pianist Wayne Marshall, who will also sit at the piano for Gershwin's famous "Rhapsody in Blue" - as the composer once did at the premiere in 1924. In “An American in Paris,” Gershwin musically processed his own impressions during a stay in Paris. The second part of the concert program is dedicated to the film music by John Williams. A special highlight of this tour are the extraordinary concert halls: half of the venues in the six Chinese cities were only opened in the last ten years and so the RSO Vienna is making its debut in the houses in Taiyuan, Nanjing and Changsha.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Neckar Forum


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

From the threatening sounds of Mordor and the shrill attack of the black riders to the cozy folk songs of the Hobbits from the Shire to the beautiful lyrical melodies of the elves - almost 100 contributors will make the Hamburger Mehr! Transform the theater on the wholesale market into a musical scene of Middle-earth. Howard Shore's film music will provide the very finest of headscapes in a highly emotional and pictorial way, and the audience in J.R.R. Suck in Tolkien's story.

HOWARD SHORE, who composed the music for the film trilogies "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit", was awarded three Oscars for this and his leitmotif, as in Richard Wagner's Ring Trilogy, lets the audience feel when It becomes threatening when the Ring unfolds its power and corrupts its wearer, SHORE is one of Hollywood's most successful film composers, and is also responsible for the Gangs of New York, Panic Room, and The Aviator soundtracks.

Discovering the orchestra
Orchestre National de Lyon - Auditorium-Orchestre National de Lyon, Grande Salle


Program Info:
Boléro . is very simple music It is even, according to Ravel himself, a kind of non-music in the sense that it is only a gigantic crescendo, built on two themes repeated eighteen times and marked by a haunting rhythm of bolero performed on the snare drum one hundred and sixty-nine times! Ravel's incredible orchestral work made this ballet music a worldwide success. It is this essential masterpiece that will allow young audiences to discover the orchestra and its various desks, its families of instruments, the richness of its timbres, its softness and its power. Britten's piece, conceived as a guided tour of the orchestra, completes this program placed under the sign of the discovery of one of the most marvellous instruments ever invented: the orchestra.

Ennio Morricone - The Official Concert Celebration
Orchestra conducted by Andrea Morricone - O2 Arena


Program Info:
ENNIO MORRICONE – THE OFFICIAL CONCERT CELEBRATION will be a unique musical event with a magnificent production curated by Ennio Morricone himself. The Prague concert will take place on April 6, 2024, at the O2 arena, with the baton being taken by his son, Andrea Morricone. The program will include iconic film melodies as well as previously unreleased compositions from Maestro Morricone and his celebrated collaborators.

Finally, it’s time to celebrate the world’s greatest film composer with a new ENNIO MORRICONE – THE OFFICIAL CONCERT CELEBRATION concert tour. Maestro Ennio Morricone himself began working in 2019 on a new concert production, which was to replace him on world stages. After more than a year of work and preparations, Maestro Morricone, as a curator, completed the entire large concert program. According to his wishes, the brand new concert will also include iconic scenes from the most famous films, lighting effects, and soloists with whom Maestro Morricone has collaborated for many years will perform on stage together with a symphony orchestra and a large choir. His son, Andrea Morricone, will take over the baton.

July 6, 2020 Ennio Morricone left us at the age of 91. The big ENNIO MORRICONE – THE OFFICIAL CONCERT CELEBRATION concert tour will pay homage to the Maestro in many European and non-European capitals. The program will be complemented by a large-screen projection, where in addition to well-known film scenes, viewers will also see previously unpublished shots of the legendary composer at work, including interesting interviews.

Ennio Morricone has composed music for more than 500 films and television productions. He has also composed over 100 individual musical works. The new concert program will include the most famous songs from the films Bio Paradise, Then in America, Good and Ugly, Incorruptible and Missions.

“It will be a bittersweet experience, because of course I miss my father very much. But having the opportunity to honor him by conducting a large symphony orchestra and choir playing his phenomenal music is a great and deeply emotional opportunity to meet and celebrate with his fans around the world,” comments Andrea Morricone.

Andrea Morricone is an acclaimed composer and conductor who has worked closely with his father for many years. He and his father won a BAFTA award for “The Love Theme” from the film Bio Paradise, which he composed. In addition to film music, Andrea Morricone conducts and composes a wide variety of music across genres. Among his most recent works is the theme for World Expo 2015 “La Forza Del Sorriso”, sung by Andrea Bocelli.

Under the baton of Andrea Morricone, the Czech National Symphony Orchestra, a large choir, and world-renowned soloists will perform at the O2 arena Prague on April 6, 2024, as part of ENNIO MORRICONE – THE OFFICIAL CONCERT CELEBRATION. Together with the Czech audience, which Maestro Ennia Morricone has loved for many years, they pay tribute to the world composer and at the same time enjoy a wonderful musical and cinematic experience.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - OVO Hydro


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Program Info:
ORF Radio Symphony Orchestra
Wayne Marshall, conductor, piano

The RSO Vienna has a particularly varied program in store for the Chinese concert audience on its China tour in 2024. At the RSO Vienna's podium is the British conductor and pianist Wayne Marshall, who will also sit at the piano for Gershwin's famous "Rhapsody in Blue" - as the composer once did at the premiere in 1924. In “An American in Paris,” Gershwin musically processed his own impressions during a stay in Paris. The second part of the concert program is dedicated to the film music by John Williams. A special highlight of this tour are the extraordinary concert halls: half of the venues in the six Chinese cities were only opened in the last ten years and so the RSO Vienna is making its debut in the houses in Taiyuan, Nanjing and Changsha.

Metropolis LIVE
Babylon Orchester Berlin conducted by Ben Palmer - Babylon


Program Info:
Gottfried Huppertz - Metropolis

310 days of shooting, 36,000 extras, 200,000 costumes and what was then a gigantic budget of five million Reichsmarks – a universal, timeless theme was translated into images that have lost none of their fascination to this day. ( German Cinematheque)

Like no other film, METROPOLIS represents the heyday of German silent films made in Berlin – Babelsberg. Electricity made things move, made the nights and the asphalt glow. The engine propelled the automobile and the aeroplane, and the skyscraper grew with the elevator. Through the cinematograph, the vision / illusion of a future metropolis was projected on the white walls of the cinema palaces and the people rose from the catacombs and demanded their fair share. A new era was born and is brought to life by the Babylon Orchestra Berlin in old/new splendor on the gold-framed canvas in Babylon, built in 1929.

A thrilling journey through time into the past, a thrilling journey through time into the future.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Bodenseeforum


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Daniel Boico, conductor
Julian Steckel, cello

"That sounds like Hollywood film music," Anne-Sophie Mutter is said to have remarked disdainfully when she recorded Korngold's Violin Concerto with her then-husband André Previn in 2003. He contradicted: "No, it's the other way around - Hollywood film music sounds like Korngold!" He is right! And the same goes for Rachmaninoff. The truth is that Korngold, with his concert works and many soundtracks, left a lasting mark on the symphonic-romantic Hollywood sound, and that Rachmaninoff's music is still exploited by Hollywood composers. The third in the group is Nino Rota, the "house composer" of the legendary Italo directors Fellini and Visconti. In addition to his countless film scores, he also wrote works for the concert hall. Julian Steckel, not least a specialist in 20th-century cello literature, plays his Cello Concerto No. 2 with us. It will be conducted by Daniel Boico, designated leader of the Free State Symphony Orchestra in Bloemfontein, South Africa, and a welcome guest with the Nuremberg Symphony Orchestra.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - AO Arena


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

ORF Radio Symphonie Orchester conducted by Wayne Marshall - Changsha Concert Hal

Wayne Marshall, conductor, piano

The RSO Vienna has a particularly varied program in store for the Chinese concert audience on its China tour in 2024. At the RSO Vienna's podium is the British conductor and pianist Wayne Marshall, who will also sit at the piano for Gershwin's famous "Rhapsody in Blue" - as the composer once did at the premiere in 1924. In “An American in Paris,” Gershwin musically processed his own impressions during a stay in Paris. The second part of the concert program is dedicated to the film music by John Williams. A special highlight of this tour are the extraordinary concert halls: half of the venues in the six Chinese cities were only opened in the last ten years and so the RSO Vienna is making its debut in the houses in Taiyuan, Nanjing and Changsha.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Stadthalle Göppingen


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Orchestra conducted by Johannes Rieger - Scharoun Theater Wolfsburg


Program Info:
The now world-famous music from the Harry Potter films will be performed in this concert in the suite compiled by composer John Williams. The catchy main theme lies in the tonal representation of the magic world.

"The Sorcerer's Apprentice" by Paul Dukas is a stroke of genius. In his programmatic composition, he pulls out all the tonal registers to stage Goethe's ballad in an impressive musical way.

Music Director and Artistic Director Johannes Rieger introduces the students to the compositional peculiarities of the works in the usual humorous way. He will focus primarily on the instrumentation and the intellectual connections to the text.

The Music Of Hans Zimmer
The Lords of the Sound - Palais des Congrès de Perpignan


Program Info:
The new generation orchestra LORDS OF THE SOUND returns to France
with a new program "The Music Of Hans Zimmer".

The LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra's performance is more than just a concert, it's a real show!

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

Full screening of the film with original music by Charlie Chaplin
arranged by Maud Nelissen
The Kid Copyright © Roy Export S.A.S.
Charlie Chaplin™ © Bubbles Inc. S.A.

duration: approximately 60 minutes without intermission

Among the many events that the Civic Theater has experienced we also find the experience of the cinema, which many people from Schledi still remember. With this first appointment of the Schio Musica review, cinema returns to inhabit the spaces of the Civic Theater and does so with a unique experience that combines viewing with listening. The Kid , Charlie Chaplin's first feature film from 1921, is screened and accompanied live by the notes of a piano, leading spectators to discover with new eyes a milestone in world cinema. The film tells of a single mother who abandons her newborn son, hoping to guarantee him a better future. However, a tramp takes care of her and decides to be her father. Five years later, while the urchin and the tramp fight not to be separated by public assistance, which wants to take the child to the orphanage, her mother is now a rich and successful woman, determined to find her son. The emotional intensity of the film is united and strengthened by the notes arranged and performed on the piano by Maud Nelissen, the only one authorized to perform the film's music in the world. An evening that will take the Civico back to the 1920s, when pianists or even entire orchestras accompanied the viewing of films before the advent of sound.


Maud Nelissen

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Resorts World Arena


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

ORF Radio Symphonie Orchester conducted by Wayne Marshall - Shanghai Oriental Art Center Concert Hall


Program Info:
ORF Radio Symphony Orchestra
Wayne Marshall, conductor, piano

The RSO Vienna has a particularly varied program in store for the Chinese concert audience on its China tour in 2024. At the RSO Vienna's podium is the British conductor and pianist Wayne Marshall, who will also sit at the piano for Gershwin's famous "Rhapsody in Blue" - as the composer once did at the premiere in 1924. In “An American in Paris,” Gershwin musically processed his own impressions during a stay in Paris. The second part of the concert program is dedicated to the film music by John Williams. A special highlight of this tour are the extraordinary concert halls: half of the venues in the six Chinese cities were only opened in the last ten years and so the RSO Vienna is making its debut in the houses in Taiyuan, Nanjing and Changsha.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Stadthalle Aalen


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Kultur+Kongress Zentrum


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
San Francisco Symphony Orchestra - Davies Symphony Hall


Program Info:
Howard Shore - The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

Composer Howard Shore brings J.R.R. Tolkien’s literary imagination to vivid life with his Academy®- and Grammy® Award-winning score to The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Shore’s music expresses Peter Jackson’s film as an immense symphonic work—a uniquely developed vision drawn from centuries of stylistic tendencies.

In The Fellowship of the Ring, the young Hobbit Frodo Baggins inherits a ring; but this ring is no mere trinket. It is the One Ring, an instrument of absolute power that could allow Sauron, the dark Lord of Mordor, to rule Middle-earth and enslave its peoples. Frodo, together with a Fellowship that includes his loyal Hobbit friends, Humans, a Wizard, a Dwarf and an Elf, must take the One Ring across Middle-earth to Mount Doom, where it first was forged, and destroy it forever. Such a journey means venturing deep into territory manned by Sauron, where he is amassing his army of Orcs. And it is not only external evils that the Fellowship must combat, but also internal dissension and the corrupting influence of the One Ring itself. The course of future history is entwined with the fate of the Fellowship.

Program Info:
Czech Symphony Orchestra
Philharmonic Choir
Franz Bader, conductor
Franziska Bader, soloist

Dramatic drum rolls, sombre cello sounds, oriental melodies - the music for the "Game of Thrones" series is as complex as its plot and characters. The soundtrack by the German-Iranian Ramin Djawadi underscores everything that made the television series a worldwide success: the battle between good and evil, feelings between love and hate and the dark obsession of the main characters.

The concert evening "The Music of Game of Thrones" is dedicated entirely to the music of the series. Under the musical direction of Franz Bader, the 50 musicians of the Czech Symphony Orchestra, a choir and the vocal soloist Franziska Bader interpret the almost endless variations of the soundtrack. A spectacular light show provides the visual background.

The monumental orchestral work develops its very own dynamic and overwhelms the listener. A musical evening as gripping as the series itself.

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - 3Arena


Program Info:
The World of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension comes to 3Arena on Friday 12 April 2024.

Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra.

The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
San Francisco Symphony Orchestra - Davies Symphony Hall


Program Info:
Howard Shore - The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

Composer Howard Shore brings J.R.R. Tolkien’s literary imagination to vivid life with his Academy®- and Grammy® Award-winning score to The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Shore’s music expresses Peter Jackson’s film as an immense symphonic work—a uniquely developed vision drawn from centuries of stylistic tendencies.

In The Fellowship of the Ring, the young Hobbit Frodo Baggins inherits a ring; but this ring is no mere trinket. It is the One Ring, an instrument of absolute power that could allow Sauron, the dark Lord of Mordor, to rule Middle-earth and enslave its peoples. Frodo, together with a Fellowship that includes his loyal Hobbit friends, Humans, a Wizard, a Dwarf and an Elf, must take the One Ring across Middle-earth to Mount Doom, where it first was forged, and destroy it forever. Such a journey means venturing deep into territory manned by Sauron, where he is amassing his army of Orcs. And it is not only external evils that the Fellowship must combat, but also internal dissension and the corrupting influence of the One Ring itself. The course of future history is entwined with the fate of the Fellowship.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Erwin-Piscator-Haus


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Amadeus
Polish National Opera Orchestra and Chorus conducted by Evan Mitchell - Teatr Wielki Polish National Opera


Program Info:
To mark 40 years since the premiere of Miloš Forman’s film Amadeus, the Polish National Opera Chorus and Orchestra will perform the soundtrack live in-sync with the motion picture shown on a vast HD screen. The performance of Mozart’s most celebrated works will be conducted by Dawid Runtz.

The event is a tribute to the famed film that tells the story of two clashing composers: a joyful and frivolous genius (Tom Hulce as Mozart) and a lofty, talentless court composer (Oscar-winner F. Murray Abraham as Salieri). Amadeus Live is a treat both for music lovers and fans of cinema who want to celebrate one of the most acclaimed movies of the 20th century.

Adapted from Sir Peter Shaffer’s original stage play, Amadeus the motion picture, stays true to its origins highlighting the contrast between, as Shaffer himself described, ‘the sublimity of his [Mozart] music and the vulgar buffoonery of his letters’ which, ‘read like something written by an eight-year-old.’ Vienna court composer, Antonio Salieri is consumed with envy upon discovering that the divine musical gifts he has so longed for all his life, have been bestowed on a bawdy, vulgar and impish young composer, Mozart. Salieri’s envy fuels his plot to destroy the man, while all the while unable to tear himself away from the genius of his music.

The spectacular scenery of 18th-century Vienna (the film was shot in Prague), dazzling costumes and hairstyles, Miroslav Ondříček’s cinematography, and screenplay by the author of the original play, Sir Peter Shaffer create a thrilling show. Amadeus is a film-opera that impressed with its scale, vision, and timeless story about human passions and weaknesses. Winner of eight Academy Awards in 1984, including Best Picture, Best Actor in a Leading Role, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Set Decoration, Best Costume Design, Best Makeup, and Best Sound. The success solidified Forman’s position as one of the most prominent European and Hollywood directors.

Warsaw joins the elite group of cities that have hosted the event, including Tokyo, Toronto, Seoul, or Paris. Amadeus Live premiered in 2016 at London’s Royal Albert Hall.

Music Director, Sir Neville Marriner said of Amadeus that his ‘main concern is that the music should be presented faultlessly, not just technically, but as a perfect complement to what is on the screen. You can’t cut the music to fit the film. One of the good things about Amadeus was that the film was shot around the music- not the other way around as is usually the case’.

With Mozart at its core throughout, the music score of Amadeus contains some of the composer’s greatest work including The Magic Flute, Don Giovanni, Symphony No. 25 in G minor, The Marriage of Figaro, and his Requiem in D minor.

Recorded by the orchestra of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields and conducted by Sir Neville Marriner in 1984, the soundtrack to Amadeus reached No. 1 in the Billboard Classical Albums Chart, No. 56 in the Billboard Popular Albums Chart. It has sold over 6.5 million copies to date and received over 13 Gold Discs in countries such as the UK, Canada, Singapore and Malaysia making it one of the most popular classical music recordings of all time. The soundtrack also became the first ever, authentic classical album to make the pop charts in Australia, France, Italy, Sweden, the UK, and the US.

Amadeus is a screen triumph; a sumptuous period epic, a soaring celebration of the music of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

This special jubilee screening of Miloš Forman’s eight-time Oscar-winning masterpiece is presented by Timeless Film Festival Warsaw (8–15 April 2024) and the Polish National Opera.

The General and The Great Train Robbery – Film with Live Music
Jonny Best (piano) and Trevor Bartlett (percussion) - Carole Nash Hall


Program Info:
The Great Train Robbery. Directed by Edwin S. Porter
USA, 1903, 12 minutes, U.

The General, Directed by Clyde Bruckman & Buster Keaton
USA, 1926, 80 minutes, U

Two of silent cinema’s greatest railway chase movies with live, improvised piano and percussion.

The Great Train Robbery is a twelve-minute escapade which wowed audiences in 1903 and still packs a punch 120 years later.

The General, from 1926, is Buster Keaton’s greatest achievement – both a brilliantly staged Civil War epic and a perfect comedy-thriller. Keaton plays a railroad engineer Johnny Gray, who loves his locomotive, The General. When it’s stolen by Yankees, he sets out to get it back and epic, action-packed chase ensues. Based on a true story, The General is packed full of beautiful visual comedy, daring stunts, and nail-biting dramatic tension.

Acclaimed silent film musicians Jonny Best (piano) and Trevor Bartlett (percussion) will bring to life this pair of silent cinema’s most famous railway chase movies. Jonny performs all over the UK as a soloist and with the improvising quartet, Frame Ensemble. Trevor is also a member of Frame Ensemble, and performs with a number of chamber ensembles.

The evening will be filled with music provided by the Plano Symphony Orchestra with special guest star Haley Sicking. You can also look forward to a Hollywood themed silent and live auction with all sorts of special items to buy and a wine paired dinner created exclusively for this event. It’s an experience you and your guests won’t forget.

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
San Francisco Symphony Orchestra - Davies Symphony Hall


Program Info:
Howard Shore - The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

Composer Howard Shore brings J.R.R. Tolkien’s literary imagination to vivid life with his Academy®- and Grammy® Award-winning score to The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Shore’s music expresses Peter Jackson’s film as an immense symphonic work—a uniquely developed vision drawn from centuries of stylistic tendencies.

In The Fellowship of the Ring, the young Hobbit Frodo Baggins inherits a ring; but this ring is no mere trinket. It is the One Ring, an instrument of absolute power that could allow Sauron, the dark Lord of Mordor, to rule Middle-earth and enslave its peoples. Frodo, together with a Fellowship that includes his loyal Hobbit friends, Humans, a Wizard, a Dwarf and an Elf, must take the One Ring across Middle-earth to Mount Doom, where it first was forged, and destroy it forever. Such a journey means venturing deep into territory manned by Sauron, where he is amassing his army of Orcs. And it is not only external evils that the Fellowship must combat, but also internal dissension and the corrupting influence of the One Ring itself. The course of future history is entwined with the fate of the Fellowship.

Weiwuying International Music Festival: Richters Patterns by Marcus Schmickler
Marcus Schmickler - Crown Hall Westside


Program Info:
Composer|Marcus SCHMICKLER
Director|Corinna BELZ
Visual Artist & Original Idea|Gerhard RICHTER

The film Richters Patterns, which consists of significant contemporary German artist Gerhard RICHTER's patterns, was created by composer Marcus SCHMICKLER and film director Corinna BELZ. RICHTER took an image of his work Abstract Painting (CR: 7244) and divided it vertically into strips. BELZ used these images to create a movie that was generated by a computer algorithm programmed for the project. SCHMICKLER wrote the music in parallel with the film's creation, and extended RICHTER's dividing method into the field of sound and time. Listeners experience these sounds as if they are looking at a painting. We will hear the visual rhythm in RICHTER's patterns with SCHMICKLER's interpretation in music!

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Rattenfänger-Halle


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Americas
Sinfonieorchester Wuppertal conducted by Patrick Hahn - Historische Stadthalle Wuppertal


Program Info:
Orchestral compositions in Cinemascope: The focal point of the 8th symphony concert is a »stratospheric colossus of sound«, as the writer Henry Miller called Edgar Varèse's orchestral piece »Amériques« with more than 100 musicians. The French composer fled the chaos of World War I to America, where he recorded his first impressions of bustling New York, complete with the ubiquitous police sirens. This work of American modernism is pictorial and associative, which found a kind of continuation in the multiple Oscar-winning soundtracks by John Williams. It is only through them that many of the iconic scenes from Hollywood blockbusters get their haunting emotionality. Not far from the Hollywood dream factory also lived Sergei Rachmaninoff, who spent the last years of his life in a house in Beverly Hills. In its emotional density and pictorial quality, his music certainly shows parallels to film music - for example the 2nd symphony, which almost overflows with voluptuous, flowing melodies. Great symphonic cinema!

John Williams - ›Adventures on Earth‹ from ›ET – The Extra-Terrestrial‹
John Williams - Main Theme from ›Jurassic Park‹
John Williams - Main Theme from ›Jaws‹
Edgar Varese - ›Americas‹

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

Amadeus
Polish National Opera Orchestra and Chorus conducted by Evan Mitchell - Teatr Wielki Polish National Opera


Program Info:
To mark 40 years since the premiere of Miloš Forman’s film Amadeus, the Polish National Opera Chorus and Orchestra will perform the soundtrack live in-sync with the motion picture shown on a vast HD screen. The performance of Mozart’s most celebrated works will be conducted by Dawid Runtz.

The event is a tribute to the famed film that tells the story of two clashing composers: a joyful and frivolous genius (Tom Hulce as Mozart) and a lofty, talentless court composer (Oscar-winner F. Murray Abraham as Salieri). Amadeus Live is a treat both for music lovers and fans of cinema who want to celebrate one of the most acclaimed movies of the 20th century.

Adapted from Sir Peter Shaffer’s original stage play, Amadeus the motion picture, stays true to its origins highlighting the contrast between, as Shaffer himself described, ‘the sublimity of his [Mozart] music and the vulgar buffoonery of his letters’ which, ‘read like something written by an eight-year-old.’ Vienna court composer, Antonio Salieri is consumed with envy upon discovering that the divine musical gifts he has so longed for all his life, have been bestowed on a bawdy, vulgar and impish young composer, Mozart. Salieri’s envy fuels his plot to destroy the man, while all the while unable to tear himself away from the genius of his music.

The spectacular scenery of 18th-century Vienna (the film was shot in Prague), dazzling costumes and hairstyles, Miroslav Ondříček’s cinematography, and screenplay by the author of the original play, Sir Peter Shaffer create a thrilling show. Amadeus is a film-opera that impressed with its scale, vision, and timeless story about human passions and weaknesses. Winner of eight Academy Awards in 1984, including Best Picture, Best Actor in a Leading Role, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Set Decoration, Best Costume Design, Best Makeup, and Best Sound. The success solidified Forman’s position as one of the most prominent European and Hollywood directors.

Warsaw joins the elite group of cities that have hosted the event, including Tokyo, Toronto, Seoul, or Paris. Amadeus Live premiered in 2016 at London’s Royal Albert Hall.

Music Director, Sir Neville Marriner said of Amadeus that his ‘main concern is that the music should be presented faultlessly, not just technically, but as a perfect complement to what is on the screen. You can’t cut the music to fit the film. One of the good things about Amadeus was that the film was shot around the music- not the other way around as is usually the case’.

With Mozart at its core throughout, the music score of Amadeus contains some of the composer’s greatest work including The Magic Flute, Don Giovanni, Symphony No. 25 in G minor, The Marriage of Figaro, and his Requiem in D minor.

Recorded by the orchestra of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields and conducted by Sir Neville Marriner in 1984, the soundtrack to Amadeus reached No. 1 in the Billboard Classical Albums Chart, No. 56 in the Billboard Popular Albums Chart. It has sold over 6.5 million copies to date and received over 13 Gold Discs in countries such as the UK, Canada, Singapore and Malaysia making it one of the most popular classical music recordings of all time. The soundtrack also became the first ever, authentic classical album to make the pop charts in Australia, France, Italy, Sweden, the UK, and the US.

Amadeus is a screen triumph; a sumptuous period epic, a soaring celebration of the music of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

This special jubilee screening of Miloš Forman’s eight-time Oscar-winning masterpiece is presented by Timeless Film Festival Warsaw (8–15 April 2024) and the Polish National Opera.

Weiwuying International Music Festival: Richters Patterns by Marcus Schmickler

Program Info:
Composer|Marcus SCHMICKLER
Director|Corinna BELZ
Visual Artist & Original Idea|Gerhard RICHTER

The film Richters Patterns, which consists of significant contemporary German artist Gerhard RICHTER's patterns, was created by composer Marcus SCHMICKLER and film director Corinna BELZ. RICHTER took an image of his work Abstract Painting (CR: 7244) and divided it vertically into strips. BELZ used these images to create a movie that was generated by a computer algorithm programmed for the project. SCHMICKLER wrote the music in parallel with the film's creation, and extended RICHTER's dividing method into the field of sound and time. Listeners experience these sounds as if they are looking at a painting. We will hear the visual rhythm in RICHTER's patterns with SCHMICKLER's interpretation in music!

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Stadthalle Neuss


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Americas
Sinfonieorchester Wuppertal conducted by Patrick Hahn - Historische Stadthalle Wuppertal


Program Info:
Orchestral compositions in Cinemascope: The focal point of the 8th symphony concert is a »stratospheric colossus of sound«, as the writer Henry Miller called Edgar Varèse's orchestral piece »Amériques« with more than 100 musicians. The French composer fled the chaos of World War I to America, where he recorded his first impressions of bustling New York, complete with the ubiquitous police sirens. This work of American modernism is pictorial and associative, which found a kind of continuation in the multiple Oscar-winning soundtracks by John Williams. It is only through them that many of the iconic scenes from Hollywood blockbusters get their haunting emotionality. Not far from the Hollywood dream factory also lived Sergei Rachmaninoff, who spent the last years of his life in a house in Beverly Hills. In its emotional density and pictorial quality, his music certainly shows parallels to film music - for example the 2nd symphony, which almost overflows with voluptuous, flowing melodies. Great symphonic cinema!

Timeless Film Festival: muzyka z filmu „Io”
Sinfonia Varsovia (Warsaw Philharmonic) conducted by Michał Klauza - Filharmonia Narodowa


Program Info:
Paweł Mykietyn - Io

The Sinfonia Varsovia Orchestra will perform the award-winning music of the outstanding composer Paweł Mykietyn for the film Io directed by Jerzy Skolimowski. Mykietyn's works are an integral, organic part of the story about a donkey's lonely journey through Poland and Europe, which we watch from the perspective of a gentle animal. The masterpiece of the master of Polish cinema is a chamber donkey opera about cruelty, indifference, but also the human - and not only - desire for good. Skolimowski created a daring, surprising and visually innovative road movie. It is overcome by a cloven-hoofed explorer, ready to accept blows from the world, but also looking for warmth, security and understanding.

Mykietyn's music supports or counterpoints the unforgettable images from I o , combining violin instruments with frosty brass and electronics. For his soundtrack, the composer received, among others: Cannes Soundtrack Award, European Film Award for music for a full-length feature film and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award

Mykietyn spoke about the challenges associated with creating the soundscape for Io in an interview conducted by Rafał Zieliński: "When composing music for a film, I always ask what it is about, who is playing, who the hero is, what he is going through. Meanwhile, putting an animal in this role completely changes this perspective.” Adopting a non-human perspective resulted in non-obvious musical textures and mysterious sounds that we will hear live during a unique evening at the National Philharmonic.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Josef-Kohlmaier-Halle


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator
Pearl Harbour
Interstellar

Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension.

With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

Silent Film & Live Music: Nosferatu with Sebastian Heindl
Sebastian Heindl, organ - Barbican, Cinema 1


Program Info:
German organist Sebastian Heindl creates an improvised soundtrack to 1922 silent horror film, Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror.

A German expressionist classic, F W Murnau’s Nosferatu is the earliest surviving adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Despite attempts to have it destroyed due to copyright infringement, the film became a landmark of the genre and one that ‘helped invent a whole vocabulary of thriller storytelling’ (Guardian).

If the ghastly Count and his creeping shadow weren’t enough to make your spine tingle, Heindl dials up the suspense with an entirely original, improvised soundtrack for organ – an instrument that is itself a gothic trope, from Bach’s thundering Toccata and Fugue in D minor in The Phantom of the Opera to the tormented tunes played by Davy Jones in Pirates of the Caribbean. And who better to lead us into the darkness than an ECHO Rising Star with the power to ‘lift his audience up to Heaven or plunge them into misery’ (Die Zeit)?

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Kurhaus Baden-Baden Benazet Saal


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Arena Futuroscope


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Eastwood Symphonic
Kyle Eastwood & 65-piece symphony orchestra - Netto Arena

This concert has been canceled.


Program Info:
Music from Clint Eastwood's legendary films performed by the famous actor's son and in a completely new version! Film compositions beloved by cinema fans will be played by a jazz quintet and a 65-piece symphony orchestra. The concert route will include four cities: Szczecin, Toruń, Gliwice and Warsaw. Ticket sales start on December 29 at 12:00 at Eventim.pl.

The Eastwood Symphonic project is headed by Kyle Eastwood - an American jazz musician and composer, son of Clint Eastwood. During the concert, we will hear musical themes from cult films such as Gran Torino, "Letters from Iwo Jima", "Banner of Glory", "What Happened in Madison County" performed by a jazz quintet and a symphony orchestra. The author of the arrangement of the songs is Gast Waltzing, a trumpeter and composer from Luxembourg.

Kyle Eastwood was born in Los Angeles in 1968. He is the son of the legendary actor and director, Clint Eastwood. He learned his love for music from home. As a child, he started playing the bass guitar. He continued his musical education while studying at the University of Southern California, and after hours he played in jazz clubs in Los Angeles.

Kyle's musical career began in the 1990s, when he founded his own jazz band and released his first album, "From Here To There" (1998). Since then, he has released seven more critically acclaimed albums, on which he collaborated with other musicians, including Clint Eastwood. Kyle has also composed soundtracks for numerous films.

The Eastwood Symphonic concert is proof of Kyle Eastwood's musical talent and his ability to combine jazz and symphonic music. The project established his position as a respected musician and composer.

Eastwood Symphonic is a unique musical experience. The incredible skills and creativity of the musicians involved in the project charmed music lovers around the world, and the way they combined the spontaneity of jazz with the momentous sound of orchestral arrangements resonated widely in the music industry.

Digital epics, live in concert: Robert Ames and the BBC Concert Orchestra perform classic gaming scores, from Final Fantasy to Battlefield 2042.

Mighty giants tumble and fall, young warriors struggle for liberty and love, and a princess of Hyrule strives to bring harmony to the cosmos. With its fantastic worlds, epic adventures, complex characters and huge moral choices, video gaming has always gone hand-in-hand with orchestral music – with games like Kingdom Hearts, Shadow of the Colossus and Dear Esther inspiring some of the most vivid and inventive sounds of our time.

Now the music of gaming breaks out from its screens and speakers into full, living, symphonic sound – as conductor Robert Ames takes an electronically-expanded BBC Concert Orchestra on a quest through infinite universes. Tonight we voyage from classic titles like The Legend of Zelda and Super Mario Bros, through Jessica Curry’s haunted soundscapes to the new worlds of Hildur Gudnandottir’s critically acclaimed Battlefield 2042.

These beloved scores have never sounded more brilliant: and tonight, anyone can play.

Program Info:

Howard Shore - The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

The film music by Oscar winner Howard Shore performed live to the complete original version of the first part of the trilogy "The Lord of the Rings" by symphony orchestra, choir and soloists with large-screen projection and over 200 participants.

Since JRR Tolkien published his three-part epic in 1954, The Lord of the Rings has amazed millions of readers and transported them to the world of Middle-earth. The work set standards for the genre of fantasy literature, as it created an entirely new and extraordinarily believable universe from the ground up. An unforgettable hero - the hobbit Frodo Baggins - finds himself caught in the middle of a war on a grand scale in Middle-earth, a world steeped in magic and fabled myth. Above all, The Lord of the Rings celebrates the power of self-sacrificing friendship and individual courage, large and powerful enough to keep even the most devastating forces of darkness at bay.

In 2001, "The Lord of the Rings" finally came to the cinemas in a breathtaking film adaptation, as the largest and most elaborate film production of all time. Film music composer Howard Shore created a fully composed, Oscar and Grammy award-winning musical work that accompanies the plot with emotional, complex interwoven themes and assigns its own motifs to every culture in Middle-earth. Reason enough to experience this wonderful music live to accompany the film!

"The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" with live music and large-screen projection has already enjoyed sensational success with numerous sold-out performances in recent years. The original soundtrack of the film, reduced by the music, ensures the right cinema sound. The fact that the music is played live by over 200 participants increases the goosebumps feeling. On a specially installed large screen, one of the most successful film adaptations in cinema history becomes a multimedia experience whose emotional power culminates in the grandiose live music and from which no one can resist.

The Music Of Hans Zimmer
The Lords of the Sound - Millesium


Program Info:
The new generation orchestra LORDS OF THE SOUND returns to France
with a new program "The Music Of Hans Zimmer".

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

Kyle Eastwood was born in Los Angeles in 1968. He is the son of the legendary actor and director, Clint Eastwood. He learned his love for music from home. As a child, he started playing the bass guitar. He continued his musical education while studying at the University of Southern California, and after hours he played in jazz clubs in Los Angeles.

Kyle's musical career began in the 1990s, when he founded his own jazz band and released his first album, "From Here To There" (1998). Since then, he has released seven more critically acclaimed albums, on which he collaborated with other musicians, including Clint Eastwood. Kyle has also composed soundtracks for numerous films.

The Music of Game of Thrones & House of the Dragon
Czech Symphony Orchestra conducted by Franz Bader - Konzertsaal im Kulturpalast Dresden


Program Info:
The music of the cult series comes live for the first time with a large orchestra and choir on a concert tour through Germany.

The fantasy novel series, which is based on the hit TV series Game of Thrones, already has music in its title: A Song of Ice and Fire. Because the novels are composed in a complex way like a symphony. Accordingly, the original film music by Ramin Djawadi combines everything that accounts for the global success of the TV series Game of Thrones based on the original by the American author George RR Martin on television: drama, passion, love, hate, surprising twists and sometimes almost unbearable tension. The gripping music also describes the vastness of the landscape, the freezing cold, the smacking of the mud of a battlefield, shimmering heat and of course the ecstatic stumbling of the main characters - sometimes out of mad love, sometimes out of blind hatred. Lies and disgrace, shame and triumph, farewell and innocence are congenially musically implemented here.
Since 2017, the large-scale film music production has been successfully performed in concert halls and arenas throughout the German-speaking world. For the first time, the music of the cult series can be heard live together with the successful prequel House of the Dragon.
The music of the first season complements the highlights from Game of Thrones. World-famous compositions such as "The Rains of Castamere" from Game of Thrones, as well as "The Dance of Dragons" and "Fire and Blood" from House of the Dragon will be heard. Experience the fight between good and evil, feelings between love and hate and the dark obsession of the main characters.

Under the musical direction of Franz Bader, the 50 musicians of the Czech Symphony Orchestra, the large choir and the singer interpret the almost endless variations of the soundtracks. A spectacular light show provides the visual background.
Visitors immerse themselves in the fantastic world of Westeros and Essos and experience a musical journey through the most important scenes and moments from Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon live.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Zénith Nantes Metropole

This concert is sold out.


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Hollywood
Hydra Quartet - Cultura Molenstraat


Program Info:
From Erich Wolfgang Korngold to Hans Zimmer

Let yourself be transported to Hollywood at the beginning of the last century. We travel through time from Erich Korngold via Enrico Morricone to John Williams and Hans Zimmer.

The Hydra String Quartet was founded during the lockdown period. The members already knew each other from various orchestral and chamber music projects and had the dream of founding a quartet that pursues the 'melancholic and golden sound ideal' from the Hollywood period of the early 20th century.

The quartet makes its own arrangements, is always looking for unknown 'treasures' from the chamber music repertoire and regularly plays programs together with guest musicians – this evening they are bringing along soprano Tineke Roseboom . In addition, it does not shy away from playing arrangements of jazz and world music.

The members are Eduardo Paredes Crespo and Ephraim Feves on violin, Mark Mulder on viola and Giorgos Kotsiolis on cello.

Williams & Spielberg
City Light Symphony Orchestra - KKL


Program Info:
Unforgettable, legendary, epochal - for 50 years, Steven Spielberg and John Williams have enchanted cinema audiences together with masterpieces such as "E.T.," "Indiana Jones" and "Schindler's List. Experience the pearls from the joint work of the two film giants in concert portrait!

What began in 1974 with "The Sugarland Express" turned out to be the most comprehensive Hollywood collaboration to date. To date, John Williams has scored 31 feature films for which Steven Spielberg was responsible for the direction. In addition, Spielberg has acted as producer on several occasions when Williams has swung the baton - most recently for the 5th "Indiana Jones" adventure.
Williams and Spielberg have hardly skipped a genre and play on the entire keyboard of emotions. "Jaws," "Indiana Jones," "E.T.," "Jurassic Park," "Schindler's List" - just a handful of their joint films with distinctive scores. Who doesn't know Raiders March as the epitome of thrilling adventure cinema?! Who doesn't get a shiver from the dark motif of "Jaws"? Who won't be moved to tears by the violin playing in "Schindler's List"? And so it goes on dozens of times...
In keeping with Spielberg's multi-faceted film making, Williams created music that ranges from gruesome horror to heroic adventure to harrowing drama with elegiac instrumental solos, stirring marches and epic symphonies. Spielberg: "Without John Williams, bicycles don't fly, dinosaurs don't walk the earth; we don't marvel, we don't cry, we don't ponder what is shown as believable. John has elevated every film we've made together."
The masterful, multi-layered film music of John Williams has accompanied the City Light Symphony Orchestra since its inception. With "A Tribute to Williams & Spielberg - Celebrating 50 Years of Movie & Music History," the musicians celebrate the world-famous and lesser-known highlights of this legendary duo, with each note kicking open doors to worlds. Travel through space and time with Steven Spielberg's and John Williams' masterful stories and melodies!

Weiwuying International Music Festival: Richters Patterns by Marcus Schmickler

Program Info:
Composer|Marcus SCHMICKLER
Director|Corinna BELZ
Visual Artist & Original Idea|Gerhard RICHTER

The film Richters Patterns, which consists of significant contemporary German artist Gerhard RICHTER's patterns, was created by composer Marcus SCHMICKLER and film director Corinna BELZ. RICHTER took an image of his work Abstract Painting (CR: 7244) and divided it vertically into strips. BELZ used these images to create a movie that was generated by a computer algorithm programmed for the project. SCHMICKLER wrote the music in parallel with the film's creation, and extended RICHTER's dividing method into the field of sound and time. Listeners experience these sounds as if they are looking at a painting. We will hear the visual rhythm in RICHTER's patterns with SCHMICKLER's interpretation in music!

Crazy beautiful "Cartoons and Animation Across Generations"
Kuangmei Symphony Orchestra conducted by Liu Kejie - Taipei National Concert Hall


Program Info:
When we were children, we learned about the colourful world from animation works. As I grow up and mature, I find resonance and new ideas in animation. The ups and downs of music in memory, combined with the familiar images, string together scenes of beautiful viewing memories. I believe that no matter when and where I think of it, the corners of my mouth will always rise.

We have selected a number of the most talked-about animation works, from the robot-themed masterpieces of the 1970s to Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, Detective Conan, and Pokémon in the 1980s, as well as modern One Piece, Naruto, and Attack on Titan , Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba...etc., together with the most creative "Howl Rehearsal", it uses multi-faceted comedy performance segments to recreate classic scenes and plot segments, plus a wildly interpreted theme song, allowing you to satisfy all your imagination at once !

Following the launch of the well-received "Cartoon Animation Cross Generation" in 2023, Kuangmei decided to continue to pamper fans in 2024 and came up with the most powerful 2.0 version, performing 22 cartoon animation theme songs across the era in one breath, waiting for you to "sound" together. "The sound enters the soul" and "It boils in seconds"!

The Music of Game of Thrones & House of the Dragon – Live in Concert
Czech Symphony Orchestra conducted by Franz Bader - Isarphilharmonie, Gasteig HP8


Program Info:
Ramin Djawadi - Game of Thrones
Ramin Djawadi - House of the Dragon

The music from these cult series goes on tour in Germany for the first time with a large orchestra and choir!

The fantasy novel series on which the cult TV series Game of Thrones is based already has music in its title: A Song of Ice and Fire. And composed like a symphony, the novels are indeed multi-layered, a fact reflected in Ramin Djawadi’s original film score. It contains everything that has led to the worldwide success of the television series Game of Thrones: drama, passion, love, enmity, surprising plot twists and at times almost unbearable tension. But the gripping music also describes the vastness of the landscape, the chilling cold, the churning of mud on a battlefield, the shimmering heat and, of course, the ecstatic faltering of the main characters – be it out of untamed love or blind hatred. Lies and disgrace, shame and triumph, farewell and innocence are congenially translated into music.

Since 2017, this large-scale film music production has been performed to great acclaim in concert halls and arenas throughout the German-speaking world. Now, for the first time, the music of the cult series will be performed live together with that of its successful prequel, House of the Dragon. Complementing the highlights from Game of Thrones, such as the world-famous The Rains of Castamerethe, the music from House of the Dragon includes such compositions as The Dance of Dragons and Fire and Blood. Experience the struggle between good and evil, feelings between love and hate, and the main characters’ dark obsessions.

Under the musical direction of Franz Bader, the Czech Symphony Orchestra’s 50 musicians, the large choir and the soloist interpret the almost endless variations of the soundtracks. A spectacular light show provides the visual background. Visitors are immersed in the fantastic world of Westeros and Essos and experience a live musical journey through the key scenes of Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon.

The Music Of Hans Zimmer
The Lords of the Sound - Le Nouveau Siècle


Program Info:
The new generation orchestra LORDS OF THE SOUND returns to France
with a new program "The Music Of Hans Zimmer".

The LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra's performance is more than just a concert, it's a real show!

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

Weiwuying International Music Festival: Richters Patterns by Marcus Schmickler
Marcus Schmickler - Crown Hall Westside


Program Info:
Composer|Marcus SCHMICKLER
Director|Corinna BELZ
Visual Artist & Original Idea|Gerhard RICHTER

The film Richters Patterns, which consists of significant contemporary German artist Gerhard RICHTER's patterns, was created by composer Marcus SCHMICKLER and film director Corinna BELZ. RICHTER took an image of his work Abstract Painting (CR: 7244) and divided it vertically into strips. BELZ used these images to create a movie that was generated by a computer algorithm programmed for the project. SCHMICKLER wrote the music in parallel with the film's creation, and extended RICHTER's dividing method into the field of sound and time. Listeners experience these sounds as if they are looking at a painting. We will hear the visual rhythm in RICHTER's patterns with SCHMICKLER's interpretation in music!

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Nordseehalle Emden


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

It's impossible to think about "Star Wars", "Schindler's List" or "Doctor Zhivago" and not hear in your imagination the music that has become fused with these images like musical notes with a staff... And yet there are also such wonderful films as "West Side Story". " or "The Phantom of the Opera", in which the compositions of musical masters are the essence of the whole: Leonard Bernstein and Andrew Lloyd Webber are the creators of all-time hits. And finally - is there anyone in the room who does not remember the musical motifs from films about James Bond and Indiana Jones?!

A gendarme from Saint-Tropez will keep order - he will also appear among us, of course in the form of sound.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Congress-Union Celle


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The Lion King
Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator
Pearl Harbour
Interstellar

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Palau Sant Jordi


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

The psychological thriller Joker was without a doubt one of the most memorable films of the year 2019. The unique origin story surrounding Arthur Fleck, who eventually becomes the psychopathic supervillain who terrorises Gotham City, has delighted friends and foes of the Batman universe.

That has everything to do with the phenomenal acting performance of Joaquin Phoenix. In a deeply human way, he plays the character of Arthur Fleck, a marginalised individual who slowly but surely slides into delusion. An important reason for this is the discontinuation of his health care – a drastic cost-cutting measure. The absurd and nihilistic actions of the former clinic clown, who can't control his laughter, soon become the source of inspiration for many popular protests - until everything gets terribly out of hand.

The music of Joker , which will be performed live by the Belgian National Orchestra conducted by Dirk Brossé, was written by the Icelandic composer and classical cellist Hildur Guðnadóttir. Her own instrument, the cello, plays the title character, while the orchestra symbolises the madness that rises in the head of the purple-yellow horror clown: first slumbering in the background, then getting louder and finally completely engulfing the cello. For the
's soundtrack, Joker Hildur Guðnadóttir, who also wrote the music for the acclaimed mini-series Chernobyl at the same time , received numerous awards, including a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score.

The Music Of Hans Zimmer
The Lords of the Sound - Carré des Docks


Program Info:
The new generation orchestra LORDS OF THE SOUND returns to France
with a new program "The Music Of Hans Zimmer".

The LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra's performance is more than just a concert, it's a real show!

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Kulturhaus Salzwedel


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The Lion King
Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator
Pearl Harbour

Do you remember the 1980s? The fact that the computer games of that time, which initially seemed quite clumsy, have now become an art form that is very well respected in wide circles (and commercially immensely successful) is not least due to the music. Similar to the great fantasy epics of Hollywood, lush symphonic sounds accompany the events here: mythical creatures, heroes fighting with ancient weapons, rocking ships and cities of the Middle Ages growing up as if by magic would only be half as impressive if not for cleverly composed music. In the beginning this was still monotonously archaic-modal, but the range has increased significantly. This can be impressively experienced with "Final Fantasy", "Journey", the 1980s classic "The Great Giana Sisters" and others.

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - MEO Arena


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Ondes Martenot and Theremin concert
Charlie Draper with Patrick Hemmerlé - Clare Hall


Program Info:
In this unique concert, Charlie Draper presents not only rare music, but also rare electronic instruments. The Ondes Martenot has achieved a certain recognition, largely due to Messiaen, and the music of science fiction movies. The Theremin, invented in 1919, and named after its colourful inventor Leon Theremin, is much less known to the general public. The only instrument played without being physically touched, it creates a fascinating sound, capable of imitating the violin as well as the human voice. The repertoire presented by Charlie Draper, one of Britain’s leading exponents, is partly made of transcriptions, partly original works, all of high musical interest.

Pierre Vellones - Fantasie
George Gershwin – Summertime
Sergei Rachmaninoff - Vocalise
Nikolai Medtner - Suite-Vocalise in F Minor
Richard Rodney Bennett - Serenade No. 2
Darius Milhaud - Suite for Ondes Martenot and Piano

Hobbits and Fairies
Symphony of the Lakes - Wagon Wheel Center for the Arts, Winona Heritage Room


Program Info:
Still: Wood Notes is a composition by the American composer William Grant Still. Still (1895–1978) was a prominent figure in the 20th-century classical music scene, known for his contributions to both orchestral and chamber music, as well as his role in breaking racial barriers in the classical music world. The composition is characterized by its melodic charm, colorful orchestration, and reflective mood. Still’s use of lush harmonies and lyrical flute passages captures a sense of serenity and beauty, reminiscent of a tranquil forest setting. “Wood Notes” is just one example of Still’s ability to blend classical music with elements of American folk traditions and his distinctive voice as a composer.

Symphonic Suite from Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring is a musical composition created by Howard Shore and orchestrated by John Whitney. It is derived from Shore’s original score for the 2001 film “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring,” directed by Peter Jackson and based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic fantasy novel. Howard Shore’s score for “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy is renowned for its complexity, depth, and ability to enhance the storytelling through music. It incorporates diverse musical elements, including memorable character themes, atmospheric textures, and dramatic orchestration. The symphonic suite likely captures some of these elements while condensing them into a standalone orchestral performance piece.

Mendelssohn: Incidental Music from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Op. 61 is a musical composition by Felix Mendelssohn, inspired by William Shakespeare’s play of the same name. Mendelssohn’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” music is celebrated for its imaginative quality, melodic charm, and ability to evoke the whimsy and enchantment of Shakespeare’s play. The incidental music, written for specific scenes in the play, features a range of compositions from dances to atmospheric pieces that enhance the storytelling. One of the most famous pieces from the incidental music is the “Wedding March,” often used in weddings to this day.

Beethoven’s ‘Eroica’

Program Info:
Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra
Johannes Fritzsch, conductor
Emily Sun, violin

Beethoven’s ‘Eroica’ Symphony is one of those works that never loses its ability to shock, stir and astound. It is a classic in every respect and remains as thrilling today as it was centuries ago. Legendary conductor Leonard Bernstein described its first half as ‘perhaps the two greatest movements in all orchestral music’.

At the head of the concert is the world premiere of a new work by immensely gifted Australian composer Harry Sdraulig – Flashout, which is followed by Korngold’s Violin Concerto performed by the extraordinary Emily Sun. Like Beethoven, Erich Wolfgang Korngold was a child prodigy. After bidding farewell to Vienna he forged an impressive career in Hollywood as an Oscar-winning film composer, his work here weaving together themes and motifs from some of his best-loved movie scores.

Harry Sdraulig - Flashout
Erich Wolfgang Korngold - Violin Concerto in D, Op 35, the concerto has themes from the scores for the movies ANOTHER DAWN (1937), ANTHONY ADVERSE (1936) & THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937)

Jurassic Park in concert
Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Shinpei Sasaki - Tokyo International Forum Hall A


Program Info:
John Williams - Jurassic Park

``Jurassic Park'' was released 30 years ago in 1993 and caused a huge boom all over the world.
This work, which was adapted from Michael Crichton's novel by master director Steven Spielberg, used the most advanced CG at the time to bring dinosaurs back to life in modern times. The Cinema Orchestra (commonly known as Cineoke®) will screen the entire historical movie "Jurassic Park" on a big screen, and a full orchestra on stage will perform the music part live in time with the movie. Decided! The first day will be a super subtitled version, and the second day will be a gorgeous double feature of the Japanese dubbed version.

The music for ``Jurassic Park'' was composed by John Williams, who has created countless film scores including ``Star Wars,'' ``E.T.,'' and ``Indiana Jones.'' The delicate yet bold score and expansive, adventurous music, played live by a full orchestra, increases the sense of presence and makes the dinosaurs released into the wilderness even more realistic. The world of "Jurassic Park" opens before your eyes and stimulates your whole body!

Hamburg International Music Festival: Charlie Chaplin: The Great Dictator
Symphoniker Hamburg conducted by Timothy Brock - Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal


Program Info:
Charles Chaplin - The Great Dictator (director: Charlie Chaplin, US 1940)
Film with original music by Charlie Chaplin and Meredith Willson

It’s one of the great masterpieces of film history, »perhaps the most significant film ever produced« (New York Times): with »The Great Dictator«, Charlie Chaplin created not only a satire of Adolf Hitler and National Socialism, but also a general manifesto against totalitarianism and war. In the opening week of the Hamburg International Music Festival, which is centred around the theme of »War and Peace«, the film is being screened in the Elbphilharmonie – with the soundtrack performed live by the Symphoniker Hamburg.

As with his earlier films, Chaplin was responsible for the script, direction and production on »The Great Dictator«. And he also acted the two main roles: the tyrant Anton Hynkel and the Jewish barber who is terrorised in the ghetto by Hynkel’s stormtroopers. The great similarity between these two characters leads to a mix-up at the end of the film and to that famous speech in which the »wrong« dictator takes to the stage and, in a passionate address, makes a plea for humanity and world peace.

»The Great Dictator«, Chaplin’s first sound film, is shown in English with the original soundtrack by Charlie Chaplin and Meredith Willson. Talking about the composition process, Willson explained: »We broke the picture into 70 musical sequences and spent weeks fitting original music to these sequences.« In this process, Chaplin’s role was far more than simply providing the occasional idea: »I have never met a man who devoted himself so completely to the idea of perfection as Charlie Chaplin. I was constantly amazed at his attention to details, his feeling for the exact musical phrase or tempo to express the mood he wanted.«

In addition to their original music, Willson and Chaplin made memorable use of two classical works: the scene in which Chaplin as the barber shaves a customer to the rhythms of Johannes Brahms’s Hungarian Dance No. 5 has gone down in film history, as has Hynkel the dictator’s dance with the inflated globe to the sound of Richard Wagner’s Lohengrin prelude.

Galactic Sounds
Heilbronner Sinfonie Orchester conducted by Alois Seidlmeier - Konzert- und Kongresszentrum Harmonie Heilbronn, Theodor-Heuss-Saal


Program Info:
What a spectacular season finale! In his rousing orchestral suite, the British composer Gustav Holst takes us to the limits of our solar system and finds an overwhelming musical representation for each of our seven neighbouring planets. It is an epic astronomical, astrological and mythical journey that takes us from Mars, the bringer of war, to Neptune, the mystical, where at the end the music seems to dissolve into stardust in spherical colours. The sounds that Holst elicits from his huge late-Romantic orchestra have repeatedly impressed and influenced subsequent generations of composers.

One who has never hidden his admiration for Holst's "Planets" suite was John Williams, and his perhaps even better-known space music, which he wrote for the film "Star Wars", complements our galactic program in a no less spectacular way and way. Join us on our journey to the limits of our solar system and beyond!

The Music of Game of Thrones & House of the Dragon
Czech Symphony Orchestra conducted by Franz Bader - Meistersingerhalle


Program Info:
Dramatic drum rolls, sombre cello sounds, oriental melodies - the music for the "Game of Thrones" series is as complex as its plot and characters. The soundtrack by the German-Iranian Ramin Djawadi underscores everything that made the television series a worldwide success: the battle between good and evil, feelings between love and hate and the dark obsession of the main characters.

The concert evening "The Music of Game of Thrones" is dedicated entirely to the music of the series. Under the musical direction of Franz Bader, the 50 musicians of the Czech Symphony Orchestra, a choir and the vocal soloist Franziska Bader interpret the almost endless variations of the soundtrack. A spectacular light show provides the visual background.

The monumental orchestral work develops its very own dynamic and overwhelms the listener. A musical evening as gripping as the series itself.

Game Music Festival: The Sounds of the Fireflies featuring music from The Last of Us
NFM Philharmonic conducted by Robert Kurdybacha - NFM Narodowe Forum Muzyki (Hall)


Program Info:
For the first time ever, the BAFTA-nominated soundtracks of The Last of Us Part I & II are to be presented in such unique arrangements! Performed by the amazing Philharmonia Orchestra in London, and the outstanding NFM Philharmonic in Wroclaw, both joined by the Oscar-winning composer Gustavo Santaollala, this performance is set to captivate hearts and minds in a true torrent of emotions.

With dozens of awards, over 17 million copies sold, and TV adaptation being HBO Max’s most-watched project in history, both parts of Naughty Dog studio’s masterpiece left a strong imprint in hearts of gamers all over the world.

Setting new standards in mature, emotional storytelling, The Last of Us follows a narrative of two characters – Joel and Ellie. Venturing through post-apocalyptic, desolated cities, they need to face not only harsh environments and mutated creatures, but also the sheer realisation that sometimes the most dangerous monsters are… other people.

Virtuosic guitar skills of Gustavo Santaollala, paired with his minimalistic approach, deliver a soundtrack that adds depth to each scene, perfectly resonating with the emotional landscape of the game. Brief moments of respite are adorned by austere compositions and ambient melancholic sounds, only to be followed by aggressive drums and industrial tones during many dreadful, deadly encounters.

Jurassic Park in concert
Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Shinpei Sasaki - Tokyo International Forum Hall A


Program Info:
John Williams - Jurassic Park

``Jurassic Park'' was released 30 years ago in 1993 and caused a huge boom all over the world.
This work, which was adapted from Michael Crichton's novel by master director Steven Spielberg, used the most advanced CG at the time to bring dinosaurs back to life in modern times. The Cinema Orchestra (commonly known as Cineoke®) will screen the entire historical movie "Jurassic Park" on a big screen, and a full orchestra on stage will perform the music part live in time with the movie. Decided! The first day will be a super subtitled version, and the second day will be a gorgeous double feature of the Japanese dubbed version.

The music for ``Jurassic Park'' was composed by John Williams, who has created countless film scores including ``Star Wars,'' ``E.T.,'' and ``Indiana Jones.'' The delicate yet bold score and expansive, adventurous music, played live by a full orchestra, increases the sense of presence and makes the dinosaurs released into the wilderness even more realistic. The world of "Jurassic Park" opens before your eyes and stimulates your whole body!

The Music Of Hans Zimmer
The Lords of the Sound - Palais des Congrès


Program Info:
The new generation orchestra LORDS OF THE SOUND returns to France
with a new program "The Music Of Hans Zimmer".

The LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra's performance is more than just a concert, it's a real show!

Hans Zimmer is a German film composer who found popularity after the release of the cult film "Rain Man". "While I was composing the music for 'Rain Man,' I kept thinking: Don't ask, it will drown out the characters. Don't take first place. Raymond, the main character, really doesn't understand where he is . He sees the world differently than we do... Why wouldn't we create "world music" for the world that only exists in his head?" - reminds Hans. This work became a real breakthrough in his career - Zimmer received an Oscar nomination. Hollywood's top directors lined up to work with him. And Hans puts his all into work, often composing musical themes for two or three films at a time. His music impressed the Disney studio so much that they commissioned Zimmer to compose for the animated cartoon "The Lion King." The musical theme of the cartoon brought the composer three of the most prestigious awards - "Oscar", "Golden Globe" and "Grammy". And further, Zimmer continued to receive numerous awards, truly becoming the best of the best in Hollywood. A rare Oscars ceremony goes without a Zimmer nominee.

The success of the concerts of the LORDS OF THE SOUND orchestra combined with the best compositions of Hans Zimmer will immerse you in the unforgettable sensations of a warm summer evening, the atmosphere of a beautiful fairy tale, filled with the beauty of symphonic sound favorite compositions, rock band, brilliant visual effects, powerful voices of soloists and choirs, unstoppable energy and positivity of the whole group!

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - WiZink Center


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

The Sound of James Bond, Licenced to Thrill

Everything about James Bond is spectacular: the strong women, the fast cars, the breathtaking stunts and the wild chases. And the music of the James Bond films is always spectacular. There's the unmistakable title tune that's been around since «Dr. No» accompanied all 25 Bond films. And like the license to kill and the vodka martini, the unmistakable theme song is part of every new 007 thriller. The classics by Shirley Bassey, Louis Armstrong, Tina Turner, Adele and many other top artists are legendary.

The 21st Century Orchestra, vocal soloists and a band let the legendary soundtracks of "Goldfinger", "From Russia With Love", "GoldenEye", "Skyfall", "No Time To Die" and many more ring out in the concert hall.

With music from John Barry, Monty Norman, Eric Serra, Thomas Newman, Hans Zimmer and others

Program Info:
Acadiana Symphony Orchestra
Mariusz Smolij, conductor

Reflections on a legendary story. The 1720 Red Mendelssohn Stradivarius violin is said to be one of the world’s most legendary instruments. Its mysterious history and whereabouts after it went missing for 200 years, has inspired much speculation, and many tellings of its story, including the 1998, Academy Award winning film, The Red Violin. And the story of how it came into the hands of its current owner? It’s just as fascinating. Join us for a performance by world-renowned violin virtuoso, and longtime keeper of The Red Violin, Elizabeth Pitcairn, who, along with her legendary instrument, will lead the ASO Chamber Ensemble in performing captivating arrangements from the now famous movie. This concert will double both as the Season 39 finale, as well as the premiere for ASO’s first-ever international debut, a 10-day concert tour of Poland, where the Symphony will travel with Pitcairn and her Red Violin, performing at some of the country’s most prestigious concert halls and music festivals.

Jaime conducts Enigma Variations
Melbourne Symphony Orchestra conducted by Jaime Martín - Robert Blackwood Hall


Program Info:
Benjamin Britten - The Young Person's Guide to the orchestra, opus 34 (composed in 1946 to accompany an educational film produced by the British government and featured in the Oscar-nominated film Moonlight Kingdom)
Ralph Vaughan Williams - The Lark Ascending
Edward Elgar - Enigma Variations

Jaime Martín conducts this stunning program of perennial English charmers – some of the most popular orchestral music ever written.

First, you'll tour through the instruments of the orchestra with Benjamin Britten’s delightful A Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra.

Then, you'll hear a work by Ralph Vaughan Williams, a figurehead of England’s Folk Music Revival, who would spend his time rambling through the countryside to ‘collect’ folk tunes from villagers. One of the best-loved works in classical music, The Lark Ascending draws on such tunes, creating a glorious pastoral picture of a bird in flight on a clear, bright day.

After a long day of apparently-torturous teaching, Elgar sat down at the piano to clear his mind, and began to tinker. The final work on this program is the tune he called Enigma – to express the ‘nothingness’ from which it came. Each of the fourteen variations on this never-revealed theme paints musical portrait of one of Elgar’s friends. The most famous – Nimrod – is one of the most emotionally profound and magnificent works of all time.

Chaplin's The Circus live
Babylon Orchester Berlin conducted by Stefanos Tsialis - Babylon


Program Info:
Charles Chaplin - The Circus

The Circus brings the series of long Chaplin silent films at the Babylon to its grand finale.

Following the overwhelming success of The Kid, Gold Rush, City Lights and Modern Times, here is Chaplin's reflection on the circus from the perspective of its most important character: The Clown.

Thanks to live performances of Chaplin's original music, audiences can experience the masterpiece exactly as it hit theatres nearly 100 years ago. Where is the culture of European travelling theatres, where is the centuries-old culture of comedic popular theatre? Supplanted by the cinema.

And Chaplin's art sets the high point and the end point for this in the new medium. You will laugh, you will cry and, you will never forget this film!

The Circus won Charles Chaplin his first Academy Award - it was still not yet called the ‘Oscar’ - he was given it at the first presentations ceremony, in 1929.
The special award was for ‘Versatility and genius in writing, acting, directing and producing’.

The film certainly merited the honour. It contains some of his best comic inventions, subtly balanced with sentiment that is kept tightly in control.

Yet paradoxically, though, this is the only film from his mature feature productions which Chaplin does not once mention in his extensive autobiography.
As late as 1964, it seemed, this was a film he preferred to forget.

- The Tramp is mistaken for a pickpocket and chased by the police. In the process, he accidentally ends up in a circus, where the audience thinks his performance is a successful act and celebrates him wildly. He is promptly hired by the ringmaster. When the Tramp, who can't be funny on cue, falls in love with the principal's daughter, the challenges begin.

Ulrich Tukur, moderation / acting / singing / accordion

As if we were the first to have the feeling of living in an ever more closely timed world. The second edition of KiezPalast shows that it was no different in the 1920s. The Frankfurt Radio Symphony and emcee Ulrich Tukur devote themselves to speed and find plenty of turbulence on the subject in classical music, film music, jazz and chanson. Whether at the speed of a Ride of the Valkyries, a space flight or a flight of the Hummel: the actors pick up speed in this cross-genre and cross-epoch concert evening, which leaves room for composed and improvised music, for texts and sounds, for great orchestral sound and small scenes. And don't worry: breathers are planned, for example with Ligeti's »Atmosphères,« a work in which time literally stands still.

From Wagner to Ligeti, from Star Wars to Flight of the Bumblebee, from classical to jazz. An orchestra concert with songs and scenes, sounds and texts

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, the greatest science fiction saga in film history thrilled millions of fans worldwide. The film score by John Williams also contributed to its success and is one of the best soundtracks of all time.

In Star Wars: A New Hope, the Empire reigns cruelly over the galaxy after the Jedi Knights have been destroyed. A group of rebels, led by Princess Leia, steal the blueprints for the Death Star and throw the Empire into turmoil. The plans end up with the old Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi, who fights against the Empire together with his apprentice Luke Skywalker, the smugglers Han Solo and Chewbacca. A life-threatening adventure begins, because Darth Vader is hot on their heels and wants to prevent the destruction of the Death Star.

The Star Wars saga, which was thought out by George Lucas down to the smallest detail, revolutionised the film world and continues to fascinate to this day. With its story, compelling characters and groundbreaking special effects, the Star Wars saga has become an icon of American culture. Under the direction of John Jesensky, the German Film Orchestra Babelsberg performs the award-winning music of John Williams in the Barclays Arena while the complete film is shown on a big screen.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Zenith Toulon


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

School concert With Britten through the orchestra
Sinfonieorchester St. Gallen conducted by Jascha von der Goltz - Theater St. Gallen, Tonhalle


Program Info:
One of the great classics for young ears is Benjamin Britten's sounding orchestral leader. Which instruments play in an orchestra, how do they sound alone and how do they sound when played together with others? And can a composer mix sounds like a painter mixes colours? Yes he can! Benjamin Britten demonstrates this with a theme from a play by his legendary predecessor and 17th-century compatriot, Henry Purcell. He lets the theme wander through the orchestra, sometimes played by a single instrument, sometimes by a whole group, appearing now in this timbre, then again in that timbre. At the very end he puts all the individual pieces together into a great, sounding painting.

Enigma. Enya. Neoclassica
Mystery Ensemble - Kensington United Reformed Church


Program Info:
The evening programme includes the best of Enigma, Enya and neoclassical music performed by the extraordinary Mystery ensemble in an intimate & relaxing atmosphere.

✨Celtic music combined with neoclassical music — a completely new sound of great hits!

Enigma's mysterious music is a cosmic synthesis of sounds, ethnic motifs, rhythm and feelings. Enigma (from ancient Greek "riddle") speaks for itself: the studio project was conceived as something mysterious - no one was supposed to know the performers.

The angelic vocals of the famous Irish singer Enya have been captivating listeners worldwide for more than 30 years. The complexity and multi-layered voice parts in her songs are truly unique. The virtuoso musicians of the Mystery Ensemble will try to convey this sound in an instrumental arrangement.

Duration: 60 minutes

Jaime conducts Enigma Variations
Melbourne Symphony Orchestra conducted by Jaime Martín - Melbourne Town Hall


Program Info:
Benjamin Britten - The Young Person's Guide to the orchestra, opus 34 (composed in 1946 to accompany an educational film produced by the British government and featured in the Oscar-nominated film Moonlight Kingdom)
Ralph Vaughan Williams - The Lark Ascending
Edward Elgar - Enigma Variations

Jaime Martín conducts this stunning program of perennial English charmers – some of the most popular orchestral music ever written.

First, you'll tour through the instruments of the orchestra with Benjamin Britten’s delightful A Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra.

Then, you'll hear a work by Ralph Vaughan Williams, a figurehead of England’s Folk Music Revival, who would spend his time rambling through the countryside to ‘collect’ folk tunes from villagers. One of the best-loved works in classical music, The Lark Ascending draws on such tunes, creating a glorious pastoral picture of a bird in flight on a clear, bright day.

After a long day of apparently-torturous teaching, Elgar sat down at the piano to clear his mind, and began to tinker. The final work on this program is the tune he called Enigma – to express the ‘nothingness’ from which it came. Each of the fourteen variations on this never-revealed theme paints musical portrait of one of Elgar’s friends. The most famous – Nimrod – is one of the most emotionally profound and magnificent works of all time.

Jurassic Park in concert
Osaka Symphony Orchestra conducted by Shinpei Sasaki - Osaka International Conference Center Main Hall


Program Info:
John Williams - Jurassic Park

``Jurassic Park'' was released 30 years ago in 1993 and caused a huge boom all over the world.
This work, which was adapted from Michael Crichton's novel by master director Steven Spielberg, used the most advanced CG at the time to bring dinosaurs back to life in modern times. The Cinema Orchestra (commonly known as Cineoke®) will screen the entire historical movie "Jurassic Park" on a big screen, and a full orchestra on stage will perform the music part live in time with the movie. Decided! The first day will be a super subtitled version, and the second day will be a gorgeous double feature of the Japanese dubbed version.

The music for ``Jurassic Park'' was composed by John Williams, who has created countless film scores including ``Star Wars,'' ``E.T.,'' and ``Indiana Jones.'' The delicate yet bold score and expansive, adventurous music, played live by a full orchestra, increases the sense of presence and makes the dinosaurs released into the wilderness even more realistic. The world of "Jurassic Park" opens before your eyes and stimulates your whole body!

Ulrich Tukur, moderation / acting / singing / accordion

As if we were the first to have the feeling of living in an ever more closely timed world. The second edition of KiezPalast shows that it was no different in the 1920s. The Frankfurt Radio Symphony and emcee Ulrich Tukur devote themselves to speed and find plenty of turbulence on the subject in classical music, film music, jazz and chanson. Whether at the speed of a Ride of the Valkyries, a space flight or a flight of the Hummel: the actors pick up speed in this cross-genre and cross-epoch concert evening, which leaves room for composed and improvised music, for texts and sounds, for great orchestral sound and small scenes. And don't worry: breathers are planned, for example with Ligeti's »Atmosphères,« a work in which time literally stands still.

From Wagner to Ligeti, from Star Wars to Flight of the Bumblebee, from classical to jazz. An orchestra concert with songs and scenes, sounds and texts

Disney in Concert: Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl
Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra & Choir conducted by Gottfried Rabl - Meistersingerhalle


Program Info:
Klaus Badelt - Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl

One of the most original cinema hits of all time returns: The first part of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, which has conquered the concert halls in recent years, can be experienced again in the Meistersingerhalle in May. Jack Sparrow's eccentric and charismatic appearance as a pirate captain - played unsurpassed by Johnny Depp - has given Disney one of the greatest cinema successes. A film spectacle whose adventurous character was perfectly staged by the two film music composers Klaus Badelt and Hans Zimmer and their unerring sense for the right sound.

Clearly: without the right music, everything would only be half as nice. The original soundtrack has been reduced by the music - because this time it comes live. A festival for all Jack Sparrow fans, made possible by sophisticated technology, a large screen and a fantastic orchestra that has been tried and tested many times over in film music. While the concert hall is transformed into the largest cinema hall in Nuremberg, the musicians of the Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra mutate into daring adventurers - led by "Captain" Gottfried Rabl at the conductor's podium, who will steer his orchestral ship with full commitment.

Safety Last!
Mecklenburgische Staatskapelle Schwerin - Mecklenburgisches Staatstheater


Program Info:
As part of the 33rd FILMKUNSTFEST MV, a classic film will be shown again with live musical accompaniment by the Mecklenburgische Staatskapelle Schwerin. This time, the famous comedy with silent film star Harold Lloyd, SAFETY LAST!, will be shown:

In order to finally get rich and marry "the girl", "the boy" moves to the big city. But luck is not on the street there either, and so he ends up working behind a shop counter. When his fiancée arrives to visit the "successful businessman", Harold literally has to risk his neck to get some money at the last minute. He devises a major advertising campaign for the company that employs him: climbing a skyscraper for $1,000. Through a chain of unfortunate circumstances, it is ultimately he himself who is suspended at a dizzying height above the abyss. On the hands of a giant clock, he fights for all-encompassing success (money, life and the girl) or a fatal fall.


In his new composition, the renowned conductor and composer Sir Carl Davis was inspired by the popular music of the 1920s and based his orchestration on the line-up of the legendary Paul Whiteman Band.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Halle Tony Garnier


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others - A Celebration of Filmmusic
Hollywood Film Orchestra - Muziekgebouw


Program Info:
The best film music experience of the year presented by a special guest from "Pirates of the Caribbean"!

The symphonic world of Hans Zimmer with music from James Bond, The Lion King, The Pirates of the Caribbean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Inception, Interstellar, Top Gun, Dune and more!

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others” is an unforgettable concert and audiovisual experience for all age groups, film buffs, music lovers and families. The best music is performed by the Hollywood Film Orchestra in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film fragments. Star soloists from the original Broadway production will perform excerpts from “The Lion King,” Zimmer's most beloved blockbuster.

No other composer has influenced the film world as much as Oscar, Globe and Emmy-winning composer Hans Zimmer over the past twenty years with his stunning compositions for films such as "James Bond", "The Lion King", "Pirates of the Caribbean ", "Gladiator", "The Dark Knight", "Man of Steel", "Inception" and "Interstellar".

Hans Zimmer wrote the film scores for more than 200 films and won his second Oscar for "Dune" (2022), after his first Academy Award for "The Lion King" (1994). He named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role model, whose work will be featured with excerpts from the films “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in the West.” Zimmer followed Morricone's example of often composing the film's score before - rather than after - filming, thus shaping the entire film. For example, he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott's "Gladiator" and the world-famous director moved to Hans Zimmer's studio.

The Hollywood Film Orchestra was founded for this concert series and usually works with state orchestras from Europe. It has performed in the world's leading halls, from the Koncerthuset in Copenhagen to the Konzerthaus in Vienna, from Großes Festspielhaus Salzburg to Salle Pleyel in Paris, from Laeiszhalle Hamburg to Tonhalle Zürich.

Our audience favourite, a special guest from the Harry Potter films and the Harry Potter universe, will make the concert unforgettable with all kinds of fun and good humour - as a popular presenter he will talk about his experiences as an actor/actress in Harry Potter, but also about friendship, adventure and love in the dangerous wizarding world. Visitors can expect to be enchanted by advanced light and laser technology and a unique sound dimension that is guaranteed to give you goosebumps. The visual and magical effects are set to make the hearts of all Harry Potter fans beat a little faster while they listen to the concert.

THE MUSIC
John Williams ("Star Wars", "ET", "Indiana Jones", "Jurassic Park") composed the music for the first three films, including the famous "Hedwig's Theme", the leitmotif of the Harry Potter films, and "Double Trouble", but also the funny "Aunt Marge's Waltz" and "Witches, Wands and Wizards".

Titles such as "Hogwarts Hymn" by Patrick Doyle, from the fourth Harry Potter film, remind the audience of the mysterious and dark world of the Triwizard Tournament.

Nicholas Hooper composed "Dumbledore's Farewell" for the fifth and sixth Harry Potter films. He helped shape and mature the Harry Potter music.

Alexandre Desplat created "Lily's Theme" and composed the music for the last two parts of the film series - a grand and unforgettable finale and musical experience.

THE MAGIC FILM ORCHESTRA
The beautiful film music is performed by The Magical Film Orchestra, which was founded for our Harry Potter concerts and mainly collaborates with state orchestras from Europe.

The Sound of James Bond, Licenced to Thrill

Everything about James Bond is spectacular: the strong women, the fast cars, the breathtaking stunts and the wild chases. And the music of the James Bond films is always spectacular. There's the unmistakable title tune that's been around since «Dr. No» accompanied all 25 Bond films. And like the license to kill and the vodka martini, the unmistakable theme song is part of every new 007 thriller. The classics by Shirley Bassey, Louis Armstrong, Tina Turner, Adele and many other top artists are legendary.

The 21st Century Orchestra, vocal soloists and a band let the legendary soundtracks of "Goldfinger", "From Russia With Love", "GoldenEye", "Skyfall", "No Time To Die" and many more ring out in the concert hall.

With music from John Barry, Monty Norman, Eric Serra, Thomas Newman, Hans Zimmer and others

Gustavo Santaolalla: Music from The Last of Us arr. Robert Kurdybacha

Traverse the austere musical landscapes of The Last of Us as Gustavo Santaolalla’s soundtrack is brought to life in an unforgettable concert.

The taut storyline and tense gameplay of Naughty Dog’s seminal action-adventure title asserted its mastery ten years ago, but it is Santaolalla’s compositions, performed today by the Philharmonia Orchestra, that gave it transcendent emotional depth.

Oscar-winner Santaolalla’s musical genius bestowed an indelible mark upon the game's world. His evocative work did not just accompany the gameplay. It became the heartbeat of the characters’ struggles, immersing players in a visceral symphony of contradiction – finding beauty in a world stifling it.

Through his artistry, Santaolalla transformed The Last of Us into an unforgettable sensory experience, reminding us of the deep impact music can have on interactive storytelling.

Join us for an afternoon celebration as we enjoy Santaolalla’s compositions orchestrated live in concert, for the very first time.

Borislav Slavov - Music from Baldur's Gate 3

Gather your party to enter the Forgotten Realms as the epic Baldur’s Gate 3 soundtrack is performed live in concert.

The Philharmonia Orchestra and Hertfordshire Chorus join forces for a full symphonic concert experience guiding you through the universe of Dungeons & Dragons.

Baldur’s Gate 3, the most recent instalment of the saga, has already captured the hearts and imaginations of many. Its phenomenal music by Borislav Slavov is doubtlessly responsible for its captivating and immersive tenor.

Slavov previously composed music for many video games including CRYSIS, Ryse: Son of Rome and Divinity: Original Sin 2. His renowned artistic style seamlessly aligns with the universe of Baldur’s Gate.

The soundtrack masterfully incorporates a diverse range of instruments and human voices, creating a tapestry of musical expression. These compositions brim with contrast, featuring grand, rhythmic passages enriched by full brass, as well as ethereal, seraphic melodic lines interwoven with sung beauty.

Join us for a night of ballads and bards as we enjoy Slavov’s work orchestrated live in concert, for the very first time.

Prom Praise 2024 Chariots of Fire
Orchestra - Royal Albert Hall


Program Info:
A century ago, Olympic sprinter and Christian missionary Eric Liddell refused to compete in his favoured 100 metre race because it was held on a Sunday. Instead, he competed in the 400 metres… and won. Liddell’s story and the convictions that motivated him formed the foundations for the 1981 film Chariots of Fire.

Originally attributed to the Biblical stories of Elijah and Elisha, the title was inspired by a line from William Blake’s poem And did those feet in ancient time – now best known in the popular hymn Jerusalem.

As the Olympics return to Paris in 2024 and to mark the 100th anniversary of Liddell’s remarkable race, we will be drawing inspiration from his tale of integrity, presenting an evening of musical sportsmanship that champions perseverance, character and hope.

Join us for Prom Praise 2024: Chariots of Fire – a whirlwind of musical energy, celebrating an Olympic year and worthy of this giant of sport and faith.

Shostakovich 9
Brisbane Philharmonic Orchestra - The Old Museum Concert Hall


Program Info:
Linda Robbins Coleman - For A Beautiful Land
Leonard Bernstein - On The Waterfront (music from the 1954 movie by Elia Kazan)
Graeme Koehne - Elevator Music
Dmitri Shostakovich - Symphony No. 9 in Eb Major

BPO’s first concert of 2024 sees Bernstein and Shostakovich juxtaposed against contemporary composers for a program that will offer something for everyone.

Opening with Linda Robbin Coleman’s For A Beautiful Land, this symphonic ode to Coleman’s homeland of America is filled with the rhapsodic celebration of nature. On The Waterfront is Bernstein at his finest; originally written as a film score, the melodies flow from one searing emotional extreme to the next.

The boisterous Elevator Music by Australian composer Graeme Koehne begins the second half, with the tongue-in-cheek title concealing a delightful pastiche of jazz, film music and Latin influence impossible to not dance to.

Conductor David Law ends the program with the Shostakovich Symphony No. 9. Often referred to as his “Classic” symphony, the work is both light-hearted and wonderfully clear in its approach—with an almost Haydn-like simplicity contrasted with a sense of humour in orchestration.

Jaime conducts Enigma Variations
Melbourne Symphony Orchestra conducted by Jaime Martín - Frankston Arts Centre


Program Info:
Benjamin Britten - The Young Person's Guide to the orchestra, opus 34 (composed in 1946 to accompany an educational film produced by the British government and featured in the Oscar-nominated film Moonlight Kingdom)
Ralph Vaughan Williams - The Lark Ascending
Edward Elgar - Enigma Variations

Jaime Martín conducts this stunning program of perennial English charmers – some of the most popular orchestral music ever written.

First, you'll tour through the instruments of the orchestra with Benjamin Britten’s delightful A Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra.

Then, you'll hear a work by Ralph Vaughan Williams, a figurehead of England’s Folk Music Revival, who would spend his time rambling through the countryside to ‘collect’ folk tunes from villagers. One of the best-loved works in classical music, The Lark Ascending draws on such tunes, creating a glorious pastoral picture of a bird in flight on a clear, bright day.

After a long day of apparently-torturous teaching, Elgar sat down at the piano to clear his mind, and began to tinker. The final work on this program is the tune he called Enigma – to express the ‘nothingness’ from which it came. Each of the fourteen variations on this never-revealed theme paints musical portrait of one of Elgar’s friends. The most famous – Nimrod – is one of the most emotionally profound and magnificent works of all time.

The Music of Game of Thrones & House of the Dragon
Czech Symphony Orchestra conducted by Franz Bader - Tempodrom


Program Info:
Dramatic drum rolls, sombre cello sounds, oriental melodies - the music for the "Game of Thrones" series is as complex as its plot and characters. The soundtrack by the German-Iranian Ramin Djawadi underscores everything that made the television series a worldwide success: the battle between good and evil, feelings between love and hate and the dark obsession of the main characters.

The concert evening "The Music of Game of Thrones" is dedicated entirely to the music of the series. Under the musical direction of Franz Bader, the 50 musicians of the Czech Symphony Orchestra, a choir and the vocal soloist Franziska Bader interpret the almost endless variations of the soundtrack. A spectacular light show provides the visual background.

The monumental orchestral work develops its very own dynamic and overwhelms the listener. A musical evening as gripping as the series itself.

Of the many beautiful dance movements written by Antonín Dvořák, the third movement of the "Eighth" is perhaps the most beautiful. In the summer of 1889, he gave his friend Alois Göbl an insight into the composition process: "I've got my head full, if only people could write it down right away! (...) It's easy beyond expectation and the melodies just fly to me...” Korngold was also able to invent melodies, his songs from the opera “Die tote Stadt” became big hits with audiences in the 1920s.

Dobrinka Tabakova - "Timber & Steel", perpetuum mobile for symphony orchestra from: "Earth Suite"
Erich Wolfgang Korngold - Violin Concerto in D major op. 35, the concerto has themes from the scores for the movies ANOTHER DAWN (1937), ANTHONY ADVERSE (1936) & THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937)

Wallace Worsley's 1923 version is undoubtedly the first. Lon Chaney, who plays the lead role, achieved stardom through this film which also set a standard for later horror films.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Toscana Congress Gmunden


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

In the old cinema
West Side Sinfonietta & Czerwie Band - Filharmonia Szczecin


Program Info:
Live music for the original pre-war Polish film "Bestia".

Pola Negri, the most famous Polish actress of all time, the tragic story of a love triangle brought to the screen in 1917, and excellent musicians specialising in creating new music for silent films - this is our proposal to end this Sunday afternoon in May.

Aleksander Hertz's film is the oldest and only preserved film with Pola Negri, from the period when the actress was still playing in Poland. Let us recall that the artist ended her career with the status of an undisputed Hollywood legend. The version of the film presented during the event is the latest work of the National Film Archive - Audio-visual Institute, which digitally restored the image.

The Beast is a tragic story of a love triangle. The heroine, who comes from the provinces, takes advantage of a countryman who falls in love with her and runs away from home. She goes to a big city, where she becomes a famous dancer and meets a wealthy entrepreneur. Soon, however, an angry provincial admirer appears in that city, this time with only one goal in mind - revenge.

Pola Negri is the most famous Polish actress in the world, who started on the stage of Polish theatres and on small film sets, and after the success of the film The Beast , she moved to the German cinematography market and finally landed in Hollywood. All this happened during a difficult period when silent films were being abandoned in favor of cinema with sound. Great talent and a lot of work allowed the actress to become a pioneer of modern cinema and an undisputed Hollywood legend, appearing on screen in the 1960s.

The soundtrack for the film will be provided by the Czerwie band, representing the leading Polish groups playing live music for silent films. The artists are also creators and performers of music for many theatre plays, documentaries and feature films. The band has five original albums in its discography. Czerwi's music has appeared many times on Polish and European radio stations, and each time it is met with a very warm reception, both from listeners and critics. The last time the Szczecin Philharmonic hosted artists during the pandemic was in May 2020, when the musicians played for the silent film Metropolis , directed by Fritz Lang. 1927

The group currently consists of four musicians: Wojtek Zaborowski, Maciek Kudłacik, Paweł Zawarus, Piotrek Bogunia, who use in their work, among others, ethnic instruments, xylophone and many other percussion instruments, bass, guitar, mandolin, accordion, and synthesisers.

The Czerwie band will be accompanied by the West Side Sinfonietta - a joint initiative of musicians from the National Forum of Music in Wrocław and the Philharmonic. Mieczysław Karłowicz in Szczecin. Instrumentalists from both outstanding institutions from western Poland exchange diverse artistic experiences. The orchestra is not traditionally led by a conductor, but by violinists: Marcin Danilewski and Paweł Maślanka, who, together with the excellent double bassist Jacek Sosna, form the core of the band. The ensemble's repertoire is very wide, and the music of Viennese composers has a special place in it.

Of the many beautiful dance movements written by Antonín Dvořák, the third movement of the "Eighth" is perhaps the most beautiful.

It's easy beyond expectation and the melodies just fly to me...” Korngold was also able to invent melodies, his songs from the opera “Die tote Stadt” became big hits with audiences in the 1920s.

Dobrinka Tabakova - "Timber & Steel", perpetuum mobile for symphony orchestra from: "Earth Suite"
Erich Wolfgang Korngold - Violin Concerto in D major op. 35, the concerto has themes from the scores for the movies ANOTHER DAWN (1937), ANTHONY ADVERSE (1936) & THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937)

The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo's Child Screening
National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Terry Davies - National Concert Hall, main stage


Program Info:
René Aubry - The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo's Child

Terry Davies conducts René Aubry’s inspired score for the much-loved children’s classics The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo’s Child, based on the books by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. This live music, played by the National Symphony Orchestra will accompany screenings of these two films.

The Gruffalo
Walk further into the deep dark wood and discover what happens when a quick-witted mouse comes face to face with an owl, a snake . . . and a hungry Gruffalo!

Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's The Gruffalo is an undisputed modern classic and has become a best-selling phenomenon across the world with over 13.5 million copies sold. This award-winning rhyming story of a mouse and a monster has found its way into the hearts and bedtimes of an entire generation of children and will undoubtedly continue to enchant children for years and years to come.

The Gruffalo's Child
The story is about the Gruffalo's daughter who, despite her father's warning, sets off into the deep dark wood to find the "big bad mouse", the only thing her father is afraid of. The Gruffalo can not remember what he looks like and describes him as a monster.

During her winter journey, she encounters the tracks of the snake, the owl, and the fox from the previous story, each of whom she first suspects to be the "big bad mouse", but who in turn tell her where she can find the real "big bad mouse". Eventually, concluding she has been tricked by the animals (and perhaps her father), she sadly decides that she "doesn't believe in the 'big bad mouse".

At this point, she encounters the little mouse from The Gruffalo, who previously tricked her father and who her father and the animals were talking about. When she threatens to eat him, he cunningly invites her to meet the "big bad mouse", which he re-creates by using moonlight to project a tremendously enlarged and fearsome shadow to scare her away. Believing the shadow to belong to the real "big bad mouse", the Gruffalo's child flees and returns to the Gruffalo cave with faith in her father restored.

The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others - A Celebration of Filmmusic
Hollywood Film Orchestra - Theater Amsterdam


Program Info:
The best film music experience of the year presented by a special guest from "Pirates of the Caribbean"!

The symphonic world of Hans Zimmer with music from James Bond, The Lion King, The Pirates of the Caribbean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Inception, Interstellar, Top Gun, Dune and more!

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others” is an unforgettable concert and audiovisual experience for all age groups, film buffs, music lovers and families. The best music is performed by the Hollywood Film Orchestra in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film fragments. Star soloists from the original Broadway production will perform excerpts from “The Lion King,” Zimmer's most beloved blockbuster.

No other composer has influenced the film world as much as Oscar, Globe and Emmy-winning composer Hans Zimmer over the past twenty years with his stunning compositions for films such as "James Bond", "The Lion King", "Pirates of the Caribbean ", "Gladiator", "The Dark Knight", "Man of Steel", "Inception" and "Interstellar".

Hans Zimmer wrote the film scores for more than 200 films and won his second Oscar for "Dune" (2022), after his first Academy Award for "The Lion King" (1994). He named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role model, whose work will be featured with excerpts from the films “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in the West.” Zimmer followed Morricone's example of often composing the film's score before - rather than after - filming, thus shaping the entire film. For example, he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott's "Gladiator" and the world-famous director moved to Hans Zimmer's studio.

The Hollywood Film Orchestra was founded for this concert series and usually works with state orchestras from Europe. It has performed in the world's leading halls, from the Koncerthuset in Copenhagen to the Konzerthaus in Vienna, from Großes Festspielhaus Salzburg to Salle Pleyel in Paris, from Laeiszhalle Hamburg to Tonhalle Zürich.

Münchner Symphoniker conducted by Jochen Rieder - Isarphilharmonie, Gasteig HP8


Program Info:
Munich Symphony Orchestra
Jochen Rieder, conductor
Jonas Kaufman, tenor

Famous film tunes of the 20th and 21st centuries

Italian coffee is cult for world star Jonas Kaufmann - and an art to which the tenor devotes himself with just as much perfection, skill and passion as anything else he tackles artistically. Since his debut at the Metropolitan Opera New York in 2006, he has belonged to the Olympus of classical music. Kaufmann is just as much in demand in the Italian and French repertoire as in German. In the meantime, the native of Munich has chosen the music and Mozart city of Salzburg as the center of his life, where he recently made his debut as Tannhäuser at the Easter Festival. But Kaufmann has also appeared in a documentary film and several times on the big screen, including "An Evening with Puccini" or live broadcasts from the MET.

Jonas Kaufmann has always been a big fan of films and film music. For his new Sony Classical album "The Sound of Movies", the versatile singer focuses on famous screen classics and devotes himself to film melodies of the 20th and 21st centuries. From "Moon River" ("Breakfast at Tiffany's") and "Singin' in the Rain" to "Somewhere" ("West Side Story") and "Strangers in the Night" to "One Enchanted Evening" or "Edelweiß" From "The Sound of Music" he brings moving film music highlights to the stage of the Isarphilharmonie in a glamorous concert evening in February. Jonas Kaufmann is accompanied by the Munich Symphony Orchestra , who can draw on a wealth of experience, especially in this genre - they have recorded the soundtracks for many Hollywood films, among other things. Together with the "King of Tenors" they give every title a very personal touch: a special listening pleasure - with the finest nostalgic crema, aromatic lightness and vocally strong expressiveness.

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Oslo Spektrum


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Williams: Harry Potter
Szczecin Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra conducted by Maria Sydor - Filharmonia Szczecin


Program Info:
It is already a tradition at the Philharmonic that every year in May we take you to the world of the best film music. Last season it was music from the Star Wars movie , this time on our concert menu: Harry Potter - symphonic suite ! The adventures of the young wizard were told in a total of eight films. The saga became a huge box office success. Films about the adventures of Harry Potter, shot in 2001-2011, earned $7.7 billion worldwide (source: filmweb.pl ).

The suite that will open our concert consists of the most famous musical motifs from Harry Potter films, written by John Williams (born 1932), one of the most famous film music composers in history (56 Oscar nominations, including 5 statuettes), author music for the parts: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone , Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban , Patrick Doyle (born 1953), creator of the soundtrack for the parts of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and Alexandre Desplat (born 1961), whose music can be heard in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Parts I and II .

After the break, we will return to the world of magic and sorcerers thanks to the next songs. We will hear music from the famous film by the creators of Shrek and Madagascar , which has had three subsequent parts. We are, of course, talking about the famous film How to Train Your Dragon , with music written by John Powell (born 1963). He is also the author of music for almost 70 other films, for which he was nominated several times for a Grammy and an Oscar.

This literally magical evening will end with the symphonic poem The Sorcerer's Apprentice by the French composer Paul Dukas (1865-1935). The work is subtitled Scherzo after Goethe's ballad , because it was inspired by Goethe's poem from 1797 under that title. The plot told in the poem can be briefly summarised as follows: in the absence of the sorcerer, the student wants to test the strength of the acquired magical powers. So he enchants the broom to carry water. The trick works and there is more water. However, when it becomes dangerously high, the student realises that he no longer remembers how to cancel the spell. Terrified that he will inevitably flood the entire house, he splits the broom in half with an axe, which only makes matters worse. Because now two brooms are constantly carrying water. However, everything has a happy ending, as the situation is saved by the sorcerer. It is this funny story that Dukas' piece tells, so it is a work of program music, i.e. it has a specific theme. It is also the most famous and most frequently performed work by the French composer. And although it was never written for the big screen, it was used in an animated film by Walt Disney Fantasia from 1940, in which Mickey Mouse himself played the role of the titular student. Thanks to this, the fame of this piece went beyond the walls of concert halls and it became widely known to a wider audience.

On this evening with film music, the Szczecin Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra will be led by Maestra Maria Sydor , an excellent young conductor, assistant to the artistic director and chief conductor of the Szczecin Philharmonic Orchestra.

We will hear the greatest hits of film music in perfect arrangements:

for the film ZIEMIA OBIECANA by Andrzej Wajda, the music with his beautiful waltz was composed by Wojciech Kilar;

The musical motif in the film Rosemary's Baby, an American psychological horror film by Roman Polański, is "Rosemary's Lullaby" - composed by Krzysztof Komeda under the original English title "Sleep Safe and Warm". In the film version, the song was performed by Mia Farrow. The composition was arranged many times by different musicians.

"Cinema Paradiso", an Italian feature film from 1988, presents the story of the friendship between cinema operator Alfredo and a little boy Toto, whom he introduces to the magical world of cinema. Music of the highest order by Ennio Morricone, an Italian composer, considered one of the greatest composers in the modern world.

"Memory" a song from the musical CATS - . The song is a nostalgic memory of a wonderful past and a dream of a new life. The music was composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber. The most famous artists performing the above-mentioned song are: Elaine Paige (historically the first performer of this song), Barbra Streisand, Barry Manilow, Céline Dion,

Among Polish artists, this piece was performed by Zdzisława Sośnicka.

"Can't Help Falling In Love" is a song by Elvis Presley. It first appeared on the soundtrack to the film "Blue Hawaii", in which Presley himself starred. He was later heard in many other films.

" Moon Moon River - a song by H.Mancini and J.Marcer, first recorded by Audrey Hepburn in 1961 for the soundtrack to the film Breakfast at Tiffany's

ZORBA THE GREEK - an excellent film, with a wonderful, unforgettable performance by Anthony Quinn, received as many as seven Oscar nominations, including Best Picture, Director and Actor. The music to Zorba the Greek brought worldwide fame to the composer Mikis Theodorakis, who was awarded three Oscars in 1964.

"Zorba the Greek" is a philosophy for life

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - the song from the 1977 film of the same title directed by Martin Scorsese was originally performed by Liza Minnelli for the first time

However, the composition "New York, New York" gained popularity only thanks to its performance by Frank Sinatra, who occasionally sang a duet with Minnelli.

A wonderful, unforgettable spectacle performed masterfully

Royber Trio - Gdański Teatr Szekspirowski


Program Info:
Royber Trio band:
Mikołaj Trzaska – saxophone, clarinet
Olo Walicki – double bass
Macio Moretti – perkusja

A concert with songs written for famous films by Wojciech Smarzowski and Paweł Maślony. The music will be performed by their composer Mikołaj Trzaska and his band. Its lineup consists of respected artists playing jazz and improvised music

"Dom Zły", "Róża", "Clergy", "Wołyń" - these are just a few of Wojciech Smarzowski's most famous productions, for which the soundtrack was recorded by the Gdańsk saxophonist and composer Mikołaj Trzaska. One of the most valued representatives of the jazz avant-garde in Poland performs with improvisers from all over the world, is a member of the Shofar trio, collaborates with the Ślina group and the Remont Pomp ensemble. At the same time, he has been creating his own music for plays and films for over a decade; for his work in this field, he received two Eagles, an individual award at the Polish Feature Film Festival in Gdynia and won a double Grand Prix at the Film Festival. Krzysztof Komeda. As he talks about the behind-the-scenes of composing: 'Working with Wojtek Smarzowski requires me to participate in the film as an actor rather than as an illustrator or commentator of events. I'm not the type of Hollywood composer, my job is to follow the character and his emotional states. I try to show everything that can't be played on camera. Mikołaj Trzaska's film music harmonizes perfectly with the image, and when performed live it takes on a completely new expression. During the special concert, the artist will be accompanied by the super group Royber Trio (Trzaska / Walicki / Moretti), and the repertoire will include themes from Smarzowski's films and Paweł Maślona's new production "Kos".

The World Of Hans Zimmer - A New Dimension: featuring Hans Zimmer personally
Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gavin Greenaway - Tauron Arena


Program Info:
Powerful. Beautiful. Dramatic. Breath-taking. Strong. Touching. This is the music of two-time Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer. In 2024, his successful show The World of Hans Zimmer will receive a new musical programme and thus advance to an international concert series at the same time. The new subtitle “A New Dimension” already hints at this: Hans Zimmer is arranging a brand-new selection from his tremendously diverse collection of scores for The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension. The audience will be taken on a unique musical journey that will immerse them in completely new dimensions. With more than 30 dates in 13 countries, The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension will be experienced in venues across Europe.

The concert tour’s precursor The World of Hans Zimmer – A Symphonic Celebration first wowed audiences in Germany in 2018 and has since been on a triumphal march around the world. Hans Zimmer himself will not appear live on stage in The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension but will function as the show’s curator and musical director. He says: “My aspiration with this new show is to preserve the culture of the orchestra and allow audiences to rediscover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are many background stories I would love to tell and long-time companions and friends I would like to introduce.”

Soundtrack conductor David Greenaway – a long-time and trusted friend of the Hollywood composer – will continue to conjure the magic of Hans Zimmer’s works for the live audience in 2024, along with some of the most outstanding, renowned soloists from Zimmer’s talent pool and a masterful symphony orchestra. David Greenaway tries to put into words how the great interplay between all the musicians works in this concert series: “We have found a way for everyone to exist in this music without anyone being the big star. The music will be the star. … The show is an absolute thrill, and we love it.” The audience will be able to enjoy stunning visual projections of film sequences alongside the music.

With The World of Hans Zimmer, the “Hollywood Rebel” (according to the BBC) has created a glamorous, lively, exciting live experience of a very special kind.

Hans Zimmer’s extraordinary melodies and modern compositions captivate a huge worldwide fan base across generations. He has already energized countless international cinema blockbusters including “Dune,” “James Bond – No Time to Die,” “The Lion King,” “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Interstellar,” “Last Samurai,” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” among others.

Family concert With Britten through the orchestra
Sinfonieorchester St. Gallen conducted by Jascha von der Goltz - Theater St. Gallen, Tonhalle


Program Info:
One of the great classics for young ears is Benjamin Britten's sounding orchestral leader. Which instruments play in an orchestra, how do they sound alone and how do they sound when played together with others? And can a composer mix sounds like a painter mixes colours? Yes he can! Benjamin Britten demonstrates this with a theme from a play by his legendary predecessor and 17th-century compatriot, Henry Purcell. He lets the theme wander through the orchestra, sometimes played by a single instrument, sometimes by a whole group, appearing now in this timbre, then again in that timbre. At the very end he puts all the individual pieces together into a great, sounding painting.

Benjamin Britten - The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra, opus 34: composed in 1946 to accompany an educational film produced by the British government and featured in the Oscar-nominated film Moonrise Kingdom

with the extraordinary participation of SUSANNA RIGACCI

After the extraordinary public success achieved during the last season, which ended ahead of time, the Teatro Verdi of Montecatini Terme is pleased to announce the new theatrical tour of Homage to Morricone – Oscar Music : a musical journey into the art of one of greatest composers of the twentieth century , Ennio Morricone.

Maestro Ennio Morricone, who recently retired from the stage, does not need too many introductions: he has won two Oscars, three Grammy Awards, four Golden Globes, six BAFTAs, ten David di Donatello, eleven Nastri d'Argento, two European Film Awards and a Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement (as well as numerous other awards), and has more than 70 million records sold worldwide to his credit. His music , for which he ventured into a wide range of compositional genres, has fascinated entire generations, making him the most important soundtrack composer of all time .

The challenge that Homage to Morricone – Musiche da Oscar sets itself is to pay homage to him in a different way than usual, moving away from slavish re-workings of his repertoire. The success of recent years and the affection with which the public returns to the theatre to attend the concert are enough to demonstrate the happy outcome of this test.

The instrumental protagonist of the concert will be the prestigious Ensemble Le Muse , which had the Honour of representing Italian musical excellence in the inauguration of the semester of Italian presidency at the EU with two unforgettable concerts in Ankara and Istanbul.

Charles Chaplin - the Kid

The silent tragicomedy The Kid (1921) - also known in Germany as Der Vagabond und das Kind - was Chaplin's first feature film as a director. Edna Purviance and Jackie Coogan also star alongside Charlie Chaplin. The film is about a tramp who finds and raises a young child. Due to external circumstances, however, the intimate relationship between the two is in danger. The film combines comedy with social drama, which was almost unique at the time. In 1971, half a century after the film's release, Chaplin, now in his 80s, composed the score for The Kid , cutting out some scenes he felt were too sentimental. " The Kid " is still one of Chaplin's most famous works.

Deep into Japanese Anime concert
Counterpoint Ensemble - National Kaohsiung Center for the Arts, Recital Hall


Program Info:
Let's relive some touching moments and memories from times gone by! With anime artist Makoto SHINKAI's trilogy, we're taking a therapeutic trip back in time to look at some of our favorite memories. S'yo FANG, LI Yuan-chen, and CHOU Xuan-hung have taken on the task of arranging several select, purely instrumental pieces to be performed within the acoustically pristine Recital Hall, where we can reminisce once again in that excitement from the past!

On the trip of emotional healing in Suzume, within the drive to not give up on someone even when the whole world is being destroyed in Weathering with You, and through the fatalist bond that goes beyond the limits of time and space in Your Name, we get to experience again the falls of great people, storms, earthquakes, and tsunamis that shake the heart to its very core.

In SHINKAI's world, the sounds of the wind and rustling trees are comparable to music. The dream for more sounds blooms in the hearts of the characters in Suzume. With growth, love, and adventure, an extraordinary music-woven journey relates the emotional bonds that break past boundaries, and the squandering of youth like a city where it never stops pouring in Weathering with You. Time and space become interlaced as two souls switch places and overcome the fate of love's entanglement in Your Name. SHINKAI's stories, described with the detail of poetry, paintings, the wind, and dreams, manifest the melody of life.

Strom
Münchner Symphoniker conducted by Nodoka Okisawa - Prinzregententheater


Program Info:
Munich Symphony Orchestra
Nodoka Okisawa, conductor
Arabella Steinbacher, violin

Three composers whose breathtakingly diverse work takes place between revue theatre, Broadway, film, opera and the concert hall. Jacques Ibert is one of the most important French composers between the world wars, his music more colourful than almost any other. "Divertissement" garnishes frivolities from light music with classic catchy tunes - that could have been created for a music hall. Erich Wolfgang Korngold, a precocious child prodigy in the old world, left Vienna for Hollywood in 1934. In addition to film scores, he also wrote "serious" works there, such as the violin concerto for Jascha Heifetz. When you think of Kurt Weill, Mackie Messer and The Threepenny Opera come to mind. But Weill had already written a first symphony in 1921 and, after he had to leave Germany in 1933, a second one in Paris in 1934. And what a! Felt melodies, melancholy, cabaret nostalgia, anger, sadness - all this and more triggers an intense listening experience.

Jacques Ibert: Divertissement
Erich Wolfgang: Korngold Violinkonzert D-Dur op. 35, the concerto has themes from the scores for the movies ANOTHER DAWN (1937), ANTHONY ADVERSE (1936) & THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937)
Kurt Weill: Symphonie Nr. 2

Program Info:
Irina Kostina, soprano | Polina Shamaeva, mezzo-soprano | Alexander Sukhanov, baritone
Pavel Ratynsky, bandoneon

Luis Enriquez Bacalov (1933–2017) was an Argentine composer who worked in Italy. He gained fame as an author of applied music (in 1994 he won an Oscar for the music for M. Redford’s film “The Postman”), but in his last creative period he turned to creating vocal and symphonic works for choir and orchestra, among which Misa Tango for bandoneon, mezzo-soprano, tenor, mixed choir and orchestra (1997). Outwardly it is a traditional five-part mass, but it is written in Spanish and permeated with tango rhythms. “Tango always sounds in my concerts, even if I play classical music,” said the composer. – As for the Mass... I wrote a lot for Catholic services. And when they commissioned me to do this work, the main thing for me was the idea of ​​one God for everyone - for Muslims, Jews, Catholics. That’s why I combined the two styles.”

The Requiem, written by Karl Jenkins (b. 1944) in 2005 in memory of his father, has gained recognition among listeners around the world in less than 20 years. The secret of the composition's popularity lies in the clarity of the musical language and enlightened lyricism. To the traditional parts of the funeral mass, the author added Pie Jesu and In Paradisum, as well as Japanese haiku. Combining liturgical Latin text and Japanese poetry, the Requiem reveals Western and Eastern views on the eternal theme of life and death.

The Passion of Joan of Arc in concert
Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte-Carlo conducted by Frank Strobel - Salle Garnier – Opéra de Monte-Carlo


Program Info:
This silent film by Carl T. Dreyer recounts the trial of Joan of Arc, from her arrest until her death at the stake.

“The brilliant idea of ​​the author is to have conceived his drama from the major handicap of his means of expression, silent cinema, and to have deliberately wanted to film the word in action by images alone. For this Dreyer did not seek to transpose the verbal exchanges between Jeanne and her judges by means of skilful subterfuge. On the contrary, he condenses the text admirably and punctuates his film on an alternation between shots of faces, mouths, looks, gestures, facial expressions, and brief visual inter-titles that the spectator reads a few seconds after the words have been uttered. by the character. The result is a listening experience of unparalleled intensity, as if the dialogue between the characters arose from within the viewer. »

Crazy beautiful "Cartoons and Animation Across Generations"
Kuangmei Symphony Orchestra conducted by Liu Kejie - Taipei National Concert Hall


Program Info:
When we were children, we learned about the colourful world from animation works. As I grow up and mature, I find resonance and new ideas in animation. The ups and downs of music in memory, combined with the familiar images, string together scenes of beautiful viewing memories. I believe that no matter when and where I think of it, the corners of my mouth will always rise.

We have selected a number of the most talked-about animation works, from the robot-themed masterpieces of the 1970s to Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, Detective Conan, and Pokémon in the 1980s, as well as modern One Piece, Naruto, and Attack on Titan , Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba...etc., together with the most creative "Howl Rehearsal", it uses multi-faceted comedy performance segments to recreate classic scenes and plot segments, plus a wildly interpreted theme song, allowing you to satisfy all your imagination at once !

Following the launch of the well-received "Cartoon Animation Cross Generation" in 2023, Kuangmei decided to continue to pamper fans in 2024 and came up with the most powerful 2.0 version, performing 22 cartoon animation theme songs across the era in one breath, waiting for you to "sound" together.

What would Once Upon a Time in the West be without Ennio Morricone's harmonica, Alfred Hitchkock's Psychosis without Bernard Herrman's crunching strings or the Star Wars saga without John Williams' Imperial March? If they have made the films they accompany unforgettable, these pieces of music have become works in their own right, alive outside the film. True incarnation of the American dream, cinema was also a source of inspiration for composers such as Samuel Barber, George Gershwin or Quincy Jones. ensemble In this transatlantic trip, the So Brass pays homage to this music without borders, joyful and nostalgic at the same time.

So Brass makes its cinema ● John Williams, Ennio Morricone, Bernard Herrmann, Nino Rota, Lalo Schifrin, Georges Delerue, Michel Legrand

American Night ● John Williams, Samuel Barber, George Gershwin, Steve Reich, Chick Corea, Frank Zappa, Alison Krauss, Quincy Jones, Duke Ellington

Dudamel Conducts Harry Potter
Los Angeles Philharmonic conducted by Gustavo Dudamel - Walt Disney Concert Hall


Program Info:
Mason Bates - Philharmonia Fantastique
John Williams - Grand Suite from Harry Potter

Since the mysterious opening celesta melody of “Hedwig’s Theme” sounded in the first Harry Potter film, John Williams’ score has been inseparable in audiences’ minds from the magic and wonder of the beloved franchise. Each piece captures a character or idea, and Williams said that while he was composing, the enchanting themes all insisted on being “hatched” and “seemed to arrive all clamoring for their individual identities.” Gustavo Dudamel leads the LA Phil in a family friendly program featuring a Grand Suite from Harry Potter with a special guest narrator and selected film clips, as well as a musical journey through the orchestra guided by a magical Sprite. Described as a “concerto for orchestra and animated film,” Philharmonia Fantastique combines music by Mason Bates, direction by Gary Rydstrom, and animation by Jim Capobianco resulting in what John Williams praised as “the biggest step forward since Fantasia” in combining music and animation.

In the 18th century, Captain Jack Sparrow is roguish yet charming, as he sails the Caribbean.

Elizabeth’s childhood friend, Will Turner, joins forces with Jack to commandeer the fastest ship in the British fleet, the HMS Interceptor, in a gallant attempt to rescue her and recapture the Black Pearl. The duo and their motley crew are pursued by Elizabeth’s betrothed, the debonair, ambitious Commodore Norrington, aboard the HMS Dauntless. Unbeknownst to Will, whose father once served with the crew, there is a curse that has doomed Barbossa and his men to live forever as the undead, where each moonlight, they are transformed into living skeletons. The curse they carry can only be broken if a once-plundered treasure is restored and blood is spilt.

Experience the hit film with the score performed live by the Toronto Symphony Orchestra.

Cine-concert: Un chien andalou & L'âge d'or
Brussels Philharmonic conducted by Vincent De Kort - Bozar, Henry Le Boeuf Hall


Program Info:
Bozar celebrates 100 years of surrealism with an exhibition about the famous avant-garde movement in Belgium - Brussels Philharmonic celebrates with this special cinema concert that brings together two iconic films by Luis Buñuel.

-----

Spanish director Luis Buñuel, together with Salvador Dalí, created the first surrealist masterpiece in film history: Un chien andalou . A seemingly randomly edited series of scenes provokes the audience - the surrealist mentality par excellence. The first images are immediately striking: a man sharpens his razor, goes outside on the balcony and looks longingly at the night sky. As a small cloud passes over the full moon, the man brutally stabs a young woman in the eye. The subsequent visually dramatic scenes provoke and fascinate at the same time, while Buñuel denies the viewer any support or orientation.

This exercise was followed by a full-fledged work a year later: L'Age d'or . This time Buñuel tells the surreal story of a man and a woman who are passionately in love with each other, but their attempts to consummate their love are thwarted by family, the church and bourgeois society. The controversy continued, the scandal engulfed Paris. Buñuel published a statement in the Heraldo de Aragón of July 1930: “This film is a moral scandal, a revolution that will tackle the bad habits of society in conflict with nature.”

John Williams ("Star Wars", "ET", "Indiana Jones", "Jurassic Park") composed the music for the first three films, including the famous "Hedwig's Theme", the leitmotif of the Harry Potter films, and "Double Trouble", but also the funny "Aunt Marge's Waltz" and "Witches, Wands and Wizards".

Titles such as "Hogwarts Hymn" by Patrick Doyle, from the fourth Harry Potter film, remind the audience of the mysterious and dark world of the Triwizard Tournament.

Nicholas Hooper composed "Dumbledore's Farewell" for the fifth and sixth Harry Potter films. He helped shape and mature the Harry Potter music.

Alexandre Desplat created "Lily's Theme" and composed the music for the last two parts of the film series - a grand and unforgettable finale and musical experience.

The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others - A Celebration of Filmmusic
Hollywood Film Orchestra - MEC Maastricht


Program Info:
The best film music experience of the year presented by a special guest from "Pirates of the Caribbean"!

The symphonic world of Hans Zimmer with music from James Bond, The Lion King, The Pirates of the Caribbean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Inception, Interstellar, Top Gun, Dune and more!

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others” is an unforgettable concert and audiovisual experience for all age groups, film buffs, music lovers and families. The best music is performed by the Hollywood Film Orchestra in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film fragments. Star soloists from the original Broadway production will perform excerpts from “The Lion King,” Zimmer's most beloved blockbuster.

No other composer has influenced the film world as much as Oscar, Globe and Emmy-winning composer Hans Zimmer over the past twenty years with his stunning compositions for films such as "James Bond", "The Lion King", "Pirates of the Caribbean ", "Gladiator", "The Dark Knight", "Man of Steel", "Inception" and "Interstellar".

Hans Zimmer wrote the film scores for more than 200 films and won his second Oscar for "Dune" (2022), after his first Academy Award for "The Lion King" (1994). He named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role model, whose work will be featured with excerpts from the films “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in the West.” Zimmer followed Morricone's example of often composing the film's score before - rather than after - filming, thus shaping the entire film. For example, he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott's "Gladiator" and the world-famous director moved to Hans Zimmer's studio.

The Hollywood Film Orchestra was founded for this concert series and usually works with state orchestras from Europe. It has performed in the world's leading halls, from the Koncerthuset in Copenhagen to the Konzerthaus in Vienna, from Großes Festspielhaus Salzburg to Salle Pleyel in Paris, from Laeiszhalle Hamburg to Tonhalle Zürich.

Music for Silent Movies: A Comedy Triple Bill
Neil Brand, piano - Saffron Hall


Program Info:
Music has always been an essential element of the cinema-going experience. Before the advent of the ‘Talkies’, a pianist employed by the cinema would improvise a soundtrack to silent movies.

Pianist, composer and much-loved broadcaster Neil Brand recreates the experience a century on from the golden age of the silver screen silent comedies. Charlie Chaplin’s Tramp initiates the greatest roller-skating chase of all time, Buster Keaton unwittingly ends up as a paid assassin for a bunch of crooks (and features in another breathtaking chase sequence) and Harold Lloyd’s bespectacled lovelorn hero dodges girders and cranes on a half-built skyscraper high above Los Angeles. The three undisputed giants of the silent film comedy come together in one spectacular display of improvisation, imagination and film-making genius from the early days of cinema.

This concert promises a series of cherished film scores, including those from the epic realms of Star Wars,  Harry Potter, Jaws, Indiana Jones, and more - all brought to life through dynamic live performances.

With a grand total of 27 Grammy Awards to its name, the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra stands as a highly regarded institution, also acknowledged with an ASCAP award for their unwavering dedication to New American Music.

Furthermore, the musical ensemble has unveiled its concert plans for the ‘22-’23 season, and even before the official start of her tenure as the new music director, French conductor Nathalie Stutzmann is already leaving a significant mark. Only recently, she engaged in a conversation with Georgia Public Broadcasting, discussing her vision and aspirations for the ASO.

“What really touched me is, it’s a very good orchestra, but it’s more than this. It’s an orchestra that is willing and starving to go deep into the musical work. I felt we were in the same direction with our ambition of developing this expressivity of the orchestra, and that’s why I’m here,” she shares.

Tracks from the Star Wars Universe will dominate the event’s playlist which the ASO is already acquainted with considering their history of being under the esteemed direction of composer John Williams on multiple occasions. Revisit pieces like the original “Battle of the Heroes,” “Duel of the Fates,” “Across the Stars,” and the iconic “The Imperial March” that accompanies Darth Vader and his reign.

“The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra spun out these melodies with energy and beauty as layer upon layer of instrumentation was added. The outcome was a beautifully executed musical product with popular appeal and an observably appreciative audience,” Arts Atlanta shares in a review.

The Ameris Bank Amphitheatre has a modern architectural design, featuring a blend of sleek metal and glass elements throughout its structure. For an event that showcases fantasy-themed scores, this venue is definitely the place to be to experience the concert at its finest!

Dudamel Conducts Harry Potter
Los Angeles Philharmonic conducted by Gustavo Dudamel - Walt Disney Concert Hall


Program Info:
Mason Bates - Philharmonia Fantastique
John Williams - Grand Suite from Harry Potter

Since the mysterious opening celesta melody of “Hedwig’s Theme” sounded in the first Harry Potter film, John Williams’ score has been inseparable in audiences’ minds from the magic and wonder of the beloved franchise. Each piece captures a character or idea, and Williams said that while he was composing, the enchanting themes all insisted on being “hatched” and “seemed to arrive all clamoring for their individual identities.” Gustavo Dudamel leads the LA Phil in a family friendly program featuring a Grand Suite from Harry Potter with a special guest narrator and selected film clips, as well as a musical journey through the orchestra guided by a magical Sprite. Described as a “concerto for orchestra and animated film,” Philharmonia Fantastique combines music by Mason Bates, direction by Gary Rydstrom, and animation by Jim Capobianco resulting in what John Williams praised as “the biggest step forward since Fantasia” in combining music and animation.

The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others - A Celebration of Filmmusic
Hollywood Film Orchestra - Flagey, Stuidio 4


Program Info:
The best film music experience of the year presented by a special guest from "Pirates of the Caribbean"!

The symphonic world of Hans Zimmer with music from James Bond, The Lion King, The Pirates of the Caribbean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Inception, Interstellar, Top Gun, Dune and more!

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others” is an unforgettable concert and audiovisual experience for all age groups, film buffs, music lovers and families. The best music is performed by the Hollywood Film Orchestra in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film fragments. Star soloists from the original Broadway production will perform excerpts from “The Lion King,” Zimmer's most beloved blockbuster.

No other composer has influenced the film world as much as Oscar, Globe and Emmy-winning composer Hans Zimmer over the past twenty years with his stunning compositions for films such as "James Bond", "The Lion King", "Pirates of the Caribbean ", "Gladiator", "The Dark Knight", "Man of Steel", "Inception" and "Interstellar".

Hans Zimmer wrote the film scores for more than 200 films and won his second Oscar for "Dune" (2022), after his first Academy Award for "The Lion King" (1994). He named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role model, whose work will be featured with excerpts from the films “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in the West.” Zimmer followed Morricone's example of often composing the film's score before - rather than after - filming, thus shaping the entire film. For example, he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott's "Gladiator" and the world-famous director moved to Hans Zimmer's studio.

The Hollywood Film Orchestra was founded for this concert series and usually works with state orchestras from Europe. It has performed in the world's leading halls, from the Koncerthuset in Copenhagen to the Konzerthaus in Vienna, from Großes Festspielhaus Salzburg to Salle Pleyel in Paris, from Laeiszhalle Hamburg to Tonhalle Zürich.

Krakow Film Music Festival: Traces of Memory

Program Info:

Special guests:
Elliot Goldenthal
Antoni Komasa-Łazarkiewicz
Julie Taymor

30th anniversary of Schindler's List - 70th birthday of Elliot Goldenthal

concert program The Traces of Memory draws from the culture of Poland and the United States, including the Jewish tradition connecting both countries. The inspiration comes from two anniversaries: the 30th anniversary of the Polish premiere of Schindler's List with the unforgettable music of John Williams and the 70th birthday of Oscar winner Elliot Goldenthal. We will also hear songs by Krzysztof Penderecki, Antoni Komasa-Łazarkiewicz and the cult band Kroke. We are organizing the concert together with the Krakow Philharmonic and the US Consulate in Krakow, celebrating its 50th anniversary.

The starting point for the first part of the concert is the 30th anniversary of Schindler's List , directed by Steven Spielberg. The film, which tells the story of an entrepreneur who saved over a thousand Jews from the threat of the Third German Reich, continues to move us and poses universal questions. The soundtrack by John Williams plays a huge role in the film . The composer drew on the heritage of Ashkenazi Jews, transforming it through his own unique sensitivity. We entrusted the solo musical parts, originally performed by Itzhak Perlman, to one of the most important and most frequently awarded Polish violinists: Agata Szymczewska.

In addition to the suite from Schindler's List, we will listen to a performance by the band Kroke , which is also celebrating its 30th anniversary. In the 1990s, its members were true pioneers discovering Krakow's forgotten klezmer tradition. Steven Spielberg himself was delighted with the musicians' talent and invited them to a ceremony organized for the survivors of Oskar Schindler's list. It was a breakthrough moment in the history of the band, which over time established cooperation with, among others, Peter Gabriel, constantly exploring a variety of sounds.

The problem of war in Europe is not only a thing of the past, which is why the program will also include a suite by Antoni Komasa-Łazarkiewicz written for the film From Where To . The Polish-French-Ukrainian documentary directed by Maciej Hamela tells the story of the first days of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine and the fate of millions of refugees. The composer was inspired by the poetry of Lina Kostenko , which he discovered while preparing a piece for the Composers4Ukraine event. 2022

The second part of the concert 70th birthday is a celebration of Elliot Goldenthal's . The American with Jewish roots is one of the most respected composers in the world - he received, among others, an Oscar, a Golden Globe and a World Soundtrack Award. With the composer's participation, his Third Symphony will be performed , written to poems by Barbara Sadowska , which constitute a kind of notes from the period of martial law in Poland, when the communist regime tried to stop the democratization process. Goldenthal, who had previously been a guest at FMF, established a cordial friendship with Krzysztof Penderecki . To draw attention to the creative dialogue conducted by outstanding composers, we have added Ciaccona in memoria del Giovanni Paolo II to the program .

The solemn concert, performed by the excellent Krakow Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Alexander Humala , is intended to emphasize American-Polish friendship, carrying a message about the value of peace and joint actions for security.

Program:
I part
The Best of Kroke
Antoni Komasa-Łazarkiewcz – Wings from the documentary From Where to Where

In the musical covered wagon we have works from famous classics such as "Once Upon a Time in the West" (Ennio Morricone), "Winnetou" (Martin Bötcher) or "The Magnificent Seven" (Elmer Bernstein).

Program Info:
Trygve Brøske - Norway our Norway in tones and images
legendary silent film success in a new festive outfit

We repeat the success and show Lyder Selvig's iconic Norwegian film to newly written music by Trygve Brøske.

The huge success and silent film Norway our Norway in tones and images from 1929 is a national treasure, which is now followed by music written almost a hundred years later. In 2022, the festival performance was part of Kosmorama's festival programme.

This is a patriotic tribute to the nation. The film is an odyssey through Norway from south to north. It is also a beautifully filmed cavalcade of the businesses that the nation lives on, such as agriculture, forestry, fishing, whaling and industry. We also take part in showjumping in Holmenkollen, and we get situations with Knut Hamsun and Sonja Henie - scenes that have been unknown to the Norwegian public for 90 years.

Our Norway Norway played three performances every day for five weeks in the autumn of 1929, accompanied by an orchestra augmented with operatic songs. Later, the film was successful in Sweden and the United States. The specially written music by Trygve Brøske consists of "old" music, music from the time of the film, complemented with Brøske's own newly written music.

The film is divided into two acts of 56 and 45 minutes, with a break between the acts.

For the new premiere in 2022, the National Library restored and digitized the film, and even tracked down forgotten scenes. The restoration work and the new premiere of Norway our Norway in 2022 was an interdisciplinary collaboration between the National Library, Kosmorama, Trondheim Symphony Orchestra & Opera, Olavshallen, composer Trygve Brøske and producer Dag Hoel.

Jo­han Dalene plays Korngold
Iceland Symphony Orchestra conducted by Roderick Cox - Harpa, Eldborg


Program Info:
Samuel Barber - Overture to The School for Scandal
Erich Wolfgang Korngold: Violin Concerto, op. 35 in D major, the concerto has themes from the scores for the movies ANOTHER DAWN (1937), ANTHONY ADVERSE (1936) & THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937)
Béla Bartók - Concerto for Orchestra

"One of finest violin debuts of the last decade," wrote a critic from BBC Music Magazine of Johan Dalene's debut album. The Swedish virtuoso is only 22 years old and has already conquered the music world. The music magazine Gramophone put him on their list of ten classical artists who will shape music in the 21st century. In this concert Dalene performs the spectacular Korngold Violin Concerto, a captivating piece that shows all the best qualities of the soloist. Korngold had an active career as a film composer and the narrative power and colourful beauty of the Violin Concerto is easily a match for the cinematic medium when it comes to stimulating the listener's imagination. Bartók's Concerto for Orchestra is a no less inspired work. It makes relentless demands of every single player in the orchestra, bringing us everything from painful nostalgia to feisty dance movements. The opening piece on the concert is also one of imagination and energy: Samuel Barber's concert overture to Richard Brinsley Sheridan's play The School for Scandal. Barber wrote the piece while still a student, and it helped put the young composer on the map.

One Night At The Movies
Norwegian Armed Forces band - Chat Noir

We are repeating last year's great success with a film music concert in the venerable and historic Chat Noir!

We promise a reunion with magnificent film music, both old classics and newer hits that have in common that they have become audience favourites.

He made his symphonic debut in 1991 with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and has since conducted symphony orchestras in Sydney, Hong Kong, Beijing and New York to name a few.

The Lost World
Monika Melcova, organ - NOSPR concert hall


Program Info:
There wouldn't be "King Kong" or "Godzilla" without "The Lost World," the first monster movie from 1925. A classic of the science fiction genre with pioneering special effects, it tells a tale from a time when geographical discoveries still sparked sensation. Director Harry O. Hoyt used cinema to show audiences something they couldn't experience in real life: exotic landscapes and prehistoric creatures fighting each other, brought back to life.

The intricate set design, costumes, and pioneering-for-its-time cinematography have aged considerably, but we can treat the film as an illustration of the development of special effects. How much novelty there was back then! You might laugh at the rubbery allosaurus, stegosaurs, or triceratops, but "The Lost World" remains a timely essay on morality and humanity's impact on the world. The characters plan an expedition to the "Lost World" and discover a prehistoric world teeming with dinosaurs, from which they manage to bring back one dinosaur to London. What happens next? You won't guess: the beast escapes and begins to terrorise the inhabitants.

After preview screenings, The New York Times wrote: "The monsters from Conan Doyle's ancient world looked completely alive. Even if it's an illusion, it's perfect." The film became a hit comparable to the summer tandem of "Oppenheimer" and "Barbie." It was even the first film shown to passengers on an airplane. Shortly after its premiere, it could be seen on the London-Paris route.

Program Info:

Michał Tokaj – piano

Znachor
Katarzyna Gacek-Dudek – ethnic bass flute

THE SLOPES

1670 , Chłopi , Bejbis , Blacktail , Ferdydurke , Znachor - phenomenal music gave each of these titles a unique character. This evening, together with the most talented composers, we will reach for the sources of our tradition, but we will also take advantage of the opportunities that new media open to us. It will be a great celebration of Polish music!

What is the form of Polish music created for films, series and games today? The most interesting soundtracks are clear proof of the skill and imagination of our composers. For over seventeen years, FMF has been supporting and promoting the Polish film music industry. Proudly observing its development, we give the stage to those whose careers are gaining momentum.

One of the most important trends today is the search for inspiration in Slavic folk music. Therefore, the concert program will include , specially prepared by Łukasz "LUC" Rostkowski a suite from the film Chłopi , which took cinema halls by storm, but also hypnotising music from the game Blacktail , for which Arkadiusz Reikowski received the Digital Dragons (Best Polish Game Audio) award, and a poetic soundtrack Paweł Lucewicz for the new version of Znachor , which conquered the Netflix platform. All of these soundtracks intriguingly combine the sound of strong white voices and traditional instruments with the power of a symphony orchestra. We will also hear non-obvious solutions in Jerzy Rogiewicz's suite from 1670 , which masterfully combines the sound of early instruments such as the harpsichord or lute with electronic music.

A special moment of the evening will be the award ceremony for the Polish Soundtrack of the Year 2023, and the concert will traditionally be opened by last year's winner - Marek Napiórkowski, together with outstanding jazz artists, will present fragments of the track to Bejbis .

There will also be space for a tribute to the doyen of Polish composers, Stanisław Syrewicz . His career began with the music for the first Polish-British television co-production Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson in 1980. Syrewicz is the author of soundtracks for over a hundred films, including works by such outstanding directors as John Frankenheimer, Ken Russell, Jerzy Skolimowski and Andrzej Żuławski. For his music to Stalin, he received the prestigious ACE Award in the United States, and the track from the series The Choir remained at the top of the classical music charts in Great Britain and Australia for many weeks, receiving the status of a Gold Record. During the Polish Music Gala, we will hear songs from the films Ferdydurke and Secret Wedding .

An exceptionally large group of great musicians will perform on stage that evening. Fragments of Znachor will be performed by the female trio SVAHY , accompanied by Katarzyna Gacek-Dudek on bass flute . The Polish-Ukrainian group Zazula , together with Bart Pałyga , will play songs from Blacktail , and the incredible energy of the music from Chłopy himself will be provided by Łukasz "LUC" Rostkowski and the Rebel Babel Film Orchestra . The whole will be complemented by the extremely experienced Krakow Philharmonic Orchestra , conducted by Katarzyna Tomala-Jedynak .

Program:
I part
Marek Napiórkowski – Bejbis

Polish Soundtrack of the Year awards ceremony

Festival Charlie Chaplin The Circus
Orchestre de la Suisse Romande conducted by Philippe Béran - Bâtiment des Forces Motrices


Program Info:
Charles Chaplin - The Circus

"Charles Chaplin's last silent film, more bitter in tone than the previous works, but full of humanity and poetry. Circus is a masterpiece, full of grotesque ingenuity, delicious ideas and clear, sharp images. Charlie sometimes looks like he's tired of the world. But as soon as he presses the forbidden buttons and drives the birds, pigs, rabbits and balloons into freedom, his face lights up with joy.” (Deutsches Filminstitut – DIF)

On the music: "In the late 1960s, after years of trying to forget this film, Chaplin returned to The Circus to be reissued with new music of his own composition. He even composed the title song, "Swing Little Girl," to be sung during the opening credits. A professional singer was hired to do it, but musical director Eric James found that Chaplin himself could sing the song much better. That's why he was persuaded - he was already 79 years old - to record the song. This seemed to symbolize Chaplin's reconciliation with the film that had caused him so much excitement." (David Robinson)
The vaudeville-style orchestral music reflects Charlie Chaplin's biographical background - growing up in the world of circus and variety shows. There are subtle but distinct differences in the way Chaplin musically approaches each circus act. While a march accompanies the acrobat, Chaplin places a light waltz for his vagabond's tightrope act, which does not indicate the danger at dizzy heights.

Charlie the Tramp finds work at the circus and the girl of his dreams.
While fleeing the police, who mistake him for a pickpocket, Charlie ends up in a circus arena. The audience thinks Charlie's attempts to elude the police are a new circus act, and they're enthralled. The ringmaster hires him on the spot, but soon realises that Charlie can't be funny on command. So the director arranges that Charlie "accidentally" attends every performance. Not realizing he's being taken advantage of, Charlie falls in love with the principal's daughter. His chances with the pretty acrobat are good. At least until a competitor shows up...

Beethoven Academy Orchestra, the Krakow Philharmonic and Pro Musica Mundi conducted by Erik Ochsner - Tauron Arena


Program Info:
Hans Zimmer / Elton John - The Lion King

t's been thirty years since audiences around the world were captivated by the story of Simba and the circle of life that connects us all.

We invite you to the European premiere of the Disney event. The Lion King – a movie with live music !

A clear line, a universal message and brilliant songs by Hans Zimmer, Elton John and Tim Rice - these are just a few of the elements that make up the phenomenon of The Lion King . The 1994 Disney production is one of the greatest successes in the studio's over 100-year history. The story of Simba - who, with the help of his newfound friends, must grow up and regain what belongs to him - has gained recognition around the world. Now we want to remind adults of it and introduce the youngest to it for the first time. The show will also be available to blind and visually impaired people thanks to audio description.

When composing the soundtrack, Hans Zimmer followed the best musical traditions - following Simba's story, he created a multicolored narrative. He drew from the culture of East Africa, which can be heard especially in the rich rhythmic layer. Elton John's songs with lyrics by Tim Rice also entered the canon of pop music. They are among the best in the rich oeuvre of both English artists.

The iconic soundtrack will be performed by the Beethoven Academy Orchestra and two choirs: the Krakow Philharmonic and Pro Musica Mundi. One hundred and fifty experienced artists will perform under the baton of Eric`. The American of Finnish origin enjoys recognition all over the world as one of the leading conductors of film music.

Stanisław Bareja in the evening
Szczecin Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra conducted by Miłosz Bembinow - Filharmonia Szczecin


Program Info:
Szczecin Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra
Miłosz Bembinow - conductor
Mateusz Czarnowski - compositions
Magdalena Małecka-Wippich - screenplay and direction

The Brilliant series will meet the legend of communist Poland cinema, because that evening the Szczecin Philharmonic will perform music from the most famous films by Stanisław Bareja himself. It will be a charming and humorous evening in the company of hotdogs, professional husbands-managers and those who are not served.

My first film was a comedy, the etudes I made in school were also comedies. This is my disposition, I don't want to force myself to do anything – said Bareja.
Was film-making really easy for him? Who was the man who created timeless comedies? What do we know about him? Stanisław Bareja made his films despite huge adversities. Humbly and persistently. While working on the script, I decided to take a closer look at the man who created cult films, while maintaining his sense of humor. After all, the story about the king of Polish comedy obliges.

Stanisław Bareja was convinced that his films would not stand the test of time. Nay. He thought that they were too firmly rooted in the communist era and would entertain viewers for two or three years at the most. Meanwhile, quotes from Bareja's films have become so deeply rooted in the Polish language that they can easily compete with classics like Mickiewicz or Wyspiański. And the movies themselves continue to enjoy unflagging popularity. Nay. The director gathers thousands of fans around him. The Bareisms website is always alive and brings together nearly 300,000 people. people on facebook!
What is the phenomenon of Bareja's films?

During the concert there will be an absurd sense of humour à là Stanisław Bareja, sudden plot twists, fun with the audience and even historical reconstructions. Not only famous stars will perform (such as Tradition, adored throughout the country), but also film critics, censors, fanatical song lovers and god knows who else. We will hear music from Stanisław Bareja's films; from songs to the opening credits of famous movies and series. There will also be Szczecin themes, but ... this is already a surprise. All this to provide the listeners with the right amount of, as Bareja himself used to say, "happy hours" and clearly improve their mood. After all, what is not done for fans of Stanisław Bareja who decide to go to the Philharmonic in the evening!

Festival Charlie Chaplin Modern Times
Orchestre de la Suisse Romande conducted by Timothy Brock - Bâtiment des Forces Motrices


Program Info:
Charles Chaplin - Modern Times

Producing a film in 1936 that had sound effects but otherwise worked like a silent film was a risk that ultimately turned out to be a success. Chaplin presents man in the wheelwork of modern technology, who is ranked as an appendage of the apparatus; vital needs are contrasted with exaggerated rationalization and mechanization. MODERN TIMES can thus be read as a socio-critical tragic comedy with a bittersweet poignancy. However, the structure of the film cannot be defined solely by the principle of social criticism. It is primarily a series of short episodes, cleverly connected, in which “the Tramp” makes his final appearances. With a résumé of grace, artistry and pantomime occurs. Chaplin's most famous character off the screen. The tramp and the girl on their way to the horizon together - no final image in film history has become more popular.

Music: Although MODERN TIMES was conceived as a talkie, Chaplin still maintains its silent film aesthetic and places little dialogue within the film. The musical density is correspondingly high. The multifaceted composition for MODERN TIMES is among the most complex and innovative in Chaplin's entire opus. The music not only reflects the story, but also translates its message musically. The range of expression ranges from depressing passages to youthful, lively interjections. The dance numbers in the café in particular are bursting with life and testify to the special quality of the composer Chaplin. In addition, the audience could hear the voice of the tramp for the first time, singing the song "Titina".

Content: Never before had Charlie the tramp endured so many stations; the episodes follow one another and throw him into ever new situations, all of which demand something unexpected from him. As a worker on the assembly line, he gets out of step and becomes the test subject of a feeding machine, which suddenly mutates into an instrument of torture. This traumatic experience temporarily leads the tramp to psychiatry. Released as cured, he involuntarily becomes the leader of the strike and ends up in prison. There, under the influence of drugs, he prevents a prisoner escape, which leads to his early release. The tramp tries to build an idyllic life with a girl whose father was shot during a demonstration. But the cycle of unemployment, job search and wrongful arrest cannot be stopped. The girl finds a job as a singer in a restaurant. Charlie gets a chance there too: as a waiter and singer. As a waiter he is a failure, but as a singer he proves to be a sensation - although he cannot sing properly, forgets the text and says something incomprehensible. Everything seems to be going well. Then the police show up to take away the girl who ran away from welfare. Charlie flees with her, in the final scene they walk towards the horizon together.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - myticket Jahrhunderthalle Frankfurt


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Filmconcert: City Girl
The James Whale Orchestra - Stadsschouwburg De Vereeniging


Program Info:
Oliver Parr - City Girl

Piano Ernst Paul Fuchs
Harp Carla Bos
Cello/Banjo/Composition Oliver Parr

In City Girl, a breathtaking silent film from 1930, a romance unfolds between a waitress and a young, naive wheat farmer. The James Whale Orchestra captures the emotions of the scenes during this screening, combining technology with live soloists for an immersive experience.

During this evening you will enjoy the film and orchestra together.

The production of City Girl was described as simply breathtaking and an emotionally intense experience. A silent film is not a sound film, but a completely different form of art. Something that film director FW Murnau understood like no other. The story takes place in rural Oregon. But it is certainly not your average Hollywood story. Both the girl and the farmer cherish a dream that is mercilessly opposed by the young man's tyrannical father.
With beautiful camera work, use of lighting effects, coupled with the vast landscapes of Oregon, the film creates an enchanting contrast with the rough, raw and sometimes violent events that take place. City Girl takes you on an emotional journey through love, longing and the struggle against the limitations of fate, all against the backdrop of an era marked by economic hardship and human resilience.

The program is framed by two movements from the suite “The Planets” by Gustav Holst: at the beginning “Venus, Bringer of Peace” and at the end “Jupiter, Bringer of Happiness”, both things that we all want so much together.

With music from Howard Shore, Lalo Schifrin, John Williams, Alan Silvestri, Klaus Badelt, Hans Zimmer, Gustav Holst and others

After the last concerts, the press wrote “Entertaining and of high musical quality” and “The concert thrilled the audience so much that there was minutes of applause and a standing ovation at the end.”

The Rhein-Main Symphony Orchestra was founded in Ingelheim in 2015. The orchestra is now known far beyond the borders of Ingelheim and regularly performs in Wiesbaden, Mainz, Bad Kreuznach, Bingen and other cities in the region.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Kongress & TheaterHaus Bad Ischl


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Festival Charlie Chaplin The Great Dictator
Orchestre de la Suisse Romande conducted by Timothy Brock - Bâtiment des Forces Motrices


Program Info:
Charles Chaplin The Great Dictator

A barber wounded during the First World War returns home after 20 years within hospital walls. His shop has grown full of cobwebs and dust, but it is the hateful graffiti on his shop window that takes him totally by surprise. Hynkel, the tyrannical dictator, and his henchmen persecute the barber, as well as the rest of the Jewish community, including the beautiful Hannah… A visionary satire that marked history, just as history itself left its mark on the film.

The music
In July 1940, Charlie Chaplin finished shooting The Great Dictator, but there was still plenty of work to be done. Directly after shooting, Chaplin continued editing the picture and as his son Charles Chaplin, Jr. recalled, “things did relax for Paulette [Goddard] and the rest of the cast … but not for Dad. Still the human dynamo, he turned his attention to composing.” As for his previous two films, City Lights (1931) and Modern Times (1936), Chaplin controlled the music for The Great Dictator by composing his own.

The Great Dictator was nominated for five Academy Awards, including Best Original Score in 1941.

Program Info:

Baldur Bronnimann, conductor
Rosanne Philippens, violin

In this last concert of the season, we travel between Europe and the United States. John Cage, the North American composer who most influenced European artists of the last century is the author of Atlas Eclipticalis , a very open piece that does not indicate either the time or the number of performers. The work superimposes Cage's own language on this astronomical atlas, generating a question about space and time completely unheard of until its premiere in 1961. Unlike Cage, Korngold's figure faded, unable to adapt to life in American exile . Consecrated as a film composer, which embarrassed his father, he writes his "swan song" in the Violin Concerto in 1945. The composer who has accompanied us all season, Stravinsky, closes the evening with the Symphony in three movements , written fully in its so-called neoclassical stage.

John Cage: Atlas Eclipticalis*
Erich Wolfgang Korngold: Violin concert D-Dur, op.35: the concerto has themes from the scores for the movies ANOTHER DAWN (1937), ANTHONY ADVERSE (1936) & THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937)

The great gala of adventure films
Deutsches Filmorchester Babelsberg - Nikolaisaal


Program Info:
The scent of the wild wide world, captured in grandiose film music - from »Indiana Jones« to »Pirates of the Caribbean«, »Star Wars« to »Postman«

Exotic locations, dangers and adversities of all kinds, the hunt for fame, justice, wealth and happiness, and death always in sight - the adventure film genre has enjoyed unbroken popularity to this day, despite or perhaps because of its wonderfully anachronistic appearance. In sober, disenchanted times like ours, the fairy tales of space, pirates and sandals on canvas unfold their very special escapist appeal. Where adventure film is on the label, film music has always been bolder, as this pulse-racing and entertaining evening shows, which of course will not end without the world-famous "Raiders March" penned by old master John Williams.

The film adaptation of the popular Broadway musical “Fiddler on the Roof” is a magnificent homage to music, time-honoured traditions and the inexhaustible power of the human spirit. “Fiddler on the Roof” is set in the village of Anatevka in Ukraine in 1905 and tells the story of Tevye (Chaim Topol), a poor milkman.

The Yiddish-speaking author Sholem Aleichem wrote a series of short stories beginning in 1894 under the title “Tevye, the Milkman.” Based on the 1964 musical with a score by composer Jerry Bock and lyricist Sheldon Harnick, a stage play by Joseph Stein and an original Broadway production directed and choreographed by Jerome Robbins and produced by Harold Prince in New York, it was created in 1971 the legendary film “Fiddler on the Roof”.

At the 1972 Academy Awards, director Norman Jewison's film was awarded three Oscars, including for the film score adapted by John Williams. “Fiddler on the Roof – The Film with Orchestra” was specially edited for live performance.

Experience this iconic masterpiece like never before and let yourself be carried away by its unforgettable songs such as Tradition and If I Were a Rich Man ! While the film shines on the big screen, the 75-member City Light Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Anthony Gabriele performs the music exactly to the film with the original vocals.

Filmmusik-Konzerte "Höhenflüge" (Flights of heights)
Sinfonieorchester Rhein-Main conducted by Christian Fere - Open Air Burggarten Burgruine


Program Info:
What would a film be without music? Unthinkable. But music without film? Wonderful! The images come to life in your mind's eye - the concert stage becomes an imaginary cinema hall. This year, the Rhein-Main Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Christian Ferel has, among others, the films “Lord of the Rings”, “Mission Impossible”, “ET” and “Back to the Future” on its program, but also the classics “Star Wars “ and “Pirates of the Caribbean” are of course not to be missed. The program is framed by two movements from the suite “The Planets” by Gustav Holst: at the beginning “Venus, Bringer of Peace” and at the end “Jupiter, Bringer of Happiness”, both things that we all want so much together.

With music from Howard Shore, Lalo Schifrin, John Williams, Alan Silvestri, Klaus Badelt, Hans Zimmer, Gustav Holst and others

After the last concerts, the press wrote “Entertaining and of high musical quality” and “The concert thrilled the audience so much that there was minutes of applause and a standing ovation at the end.”

The Rhein-Main Symphony Orchestra was founded in Ingelheim in 2015. The orchestra is now known far beyond the borders of Ingelheim and regularly performs in Wiesbaden, Mainz, Bad Kreuznach, Bingen and other cities in the region.

Film Music
Musiciens de l’Orchestre de Paris - Philharmonie de Paris, Amphithéâtre - Cité de la musique


Program Info:
Film, a popular art that some predicted would replace opera, is also a musical art. Drawing on classical tradition and jazz, spanning Europe and the United States, this programme showcases the seductive charm of film music.

For this concert in homage to the silver screen, a classical string quartet and jazz Quartet share the stage, in a back-and-forth that ultimately becomes a melting pot.

Cinema, one of the great artistic innovations of the 20th century, has forged a fascinating relationship with music involving a host of illustrious figures, including Shostakovich, who collaborated with the director Kozintsev.

Before pursuing his career in Hollywood, still a child prodigy, Korngold composed his Quartet No. 2 infused with lyricism and echoes of Viennese waltzes. Nino Rota, known for his legendary collaboration with Fellini, is also the composer of a masterly Quartet, a work of admirable classical balance.

Gershwin melodies, Miles Davis’ unforgettable accents in Lift to the Scaffold and other brilliant standards make up the programme for this ‘show’ dedicated to the magic of cinema.

Program
Works by Dmitri Chostakovitch, George Gershwin, Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Nino Rota

Filmmusik-Konzerte "Höhenflüge" (Flights of heights)
Sinfonieorchester Rhein-Main conducted by Christian Fere - Ingelheim, kING


Program Info:
What would a film be without music? Unthinkable. But music without film? Wonderful! The images come to life in your mind's eye - the concert stage becomes an imaginary cinema hall. This year, the Rhein-Main Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Christian Ferel has, among others, the films “Lord of the Rings”, “Mission Impossible”, “ET” and “Back to the Future” on its program, but also the classics “Star Wars “ and “Pirates of the Caribbean” are of course not to be missed. The program is framed by two movements from the suite “The Planets” by Gustav Holst: at the beginning “Venus, Bringer of Peace” and at the end “Jupiter, Bringer of Happiness”, both things that we all want so much together.

With music from Howard Shore, Lalo Schifrin, John Williams, Alan Silvestri, Klaus Badelt, Hans Zimmer, Gustav Holst and others

After the last concerts, the press wrote “Entertaining and of high musical quality” and “The concert thrilled the audience so much that there was minutes of applause and a standing ovation at the end.”

The Rhein-Main Symphony Orchestra was founded in Ingelheim in 2015. The orchestra is now known far beyond the borders of Ingelheim and regularly performs in Wiesbaden, Mainz, Bad Kreuznach, Bingen and other cities in the region.

The greatest music from French cinema
Orchestra - La Seine Musicale


Program Info:
It is sometimes claimed that good film music should not be noticed. The composers featured in this program did not follow this advice, and that's good for us! Admittedly composed for the screen, the soundtracks of film are partitions with whole share which can very well do without images. Or rather, they are scores so evocative that they have the power to awaken images in us, and even better: they give us the pleasure of remembering the images that go with them, and even of guessing at them.

A concert like a Cannes festival for your ears with the greatest composers of film music: from Georges Delerue to Francis Laï via Jean Wiéner or Paul Misraki , Claude Bolling and many others...

So many cult melodies that adorned French cinema in the 1960s and 1970s. Their musical treasures draw on all genres – song, jazz, classical – to marry the story and its characters: both comedy and passionate love ( one thinks of the iconic dance scene in Et Dieu…créa la femme or the irresistible dabadabada in A Man and a Woman ), destructive love ( Le Mépris and the haunting theme of the string orchestra) and even thriller (with the melancholic harmonica theme in Touchez pas au grisbi and also Borsalino with a tasty jazz that immediately sets the scene for Delon and Belmondo).

Inseparable from the films for which they composed the soundtrack, these composers have immortalized the masterpieces of Godard , Lelouch , Becker … Thanks to their unforgettable melodies, they achieve a perfect marriage between music and the seventh art!

Every Bond fan club around the world recognizes them as the finest performances of the songs since the originals.

Some of the most notable praise has come from hugely influential Bond related stars including:

Bond Composer David Arnold: “They do a phenomenal job”

Former James Bond George Lazenby: “They did John Barry proud”

Sir Roger Moore’s Office (following his Memorial): “They helped make a wonderful day an extraordinary day”

Steven Saltzman (son of legendary Bond producer Harry Saltzman): “You did my Dad proud”

Even The Times national newspaper raved about their performance in a 4-star review of their West End debut: “It’s hard to imagine this music being served better. Simply stunning.”

The show has become synonymous with top events around the world when it comes to James Bond. In 2017 they were asked to perform at Sir Roger Moore’s official memorial event at Pinewood Studios. In 2019 they performed at an event with George Lazenby: the 50th anniversary event for On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, held at Piz Gloria in the Swiss Alps.

Karl Bartos, music, electronics and sound design - Laeiszhalle, Großer Saal


Program Info:
Karl Bartos - The Cabinet of Dr Caligari
Robert Wiene’s silent film classic in a new soundtrack

Two legendary worlds collide: the creativity of a long-time Kraftwerk band member and a milestone in cinema history. It is no exaggeration to use the adjective »sensational« to describe what has been created in recent years in the Hamburg studio of musician Karl Bartos, who played a key role in shaping Kraftwerk’s electropop style from 1974 to 1990. It brings the silent film classic »The Cabinet of Dr Caligari« into our time through sophisticated sound design and creates a total work of art that immediately casts a spell over you. The fascinating interplay of fantasy and touching chills is given something intoxicating and beguilingly beautiful by Barto’s sound art.

Karl Bartos has been fascinated by »The Cabinet of Dr Caligari« for almost twenty years and has given this silent film classic a fitting artistic guise. He has not only created a completely new, consistent soundscape to accompany the movie, but also his own music. He uses the timeless sound of the symphony orchestra, albeit synthesised and electronically modulated.

This spectacular project combines the film screening of the first psycho-thriller with sounds and music created live on stage by Karl Bartos and his colleague Mathias Black.

Cine-concert | Organ - October Sergei Eisenstein
Jeremy Joseph, organ - Auditorium-Orchestre National de Lyon, Grande Salle


Program Info:
Jeremy Joseph, improvised organ accompaniment - October

Shot to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the October Revolution, this legendary film allows Eisenstein, beyond pure propaganda, to refine his editing theory and sign an ultra-spectacular work, a true "blockbuster" of era.

It was the success of Battleship Potemkin that offered Eisenstein, supported by his sidekick Grigori Aleksandrov, sometimes an actor and here co-director, the chance to sign one of the two official films celebrating the 10th anniversary of the young Soviet Union. No means are refused to him, the Red Army providing material and extras in quantity. From February 1917, and the fall of the Tsar, to the triumph of the Bolsheviks eight months later, the film chronicles, obviously partisan, a decisive year. With crowd scenes worthy of a blockbuster, in particular the capture of the Winter Palace in Saint Petersburg, Eisenstein uses all the resources of editing, even collage, to give additional visual force to his subject: the lie of religions , the ridicule of opponents, etc. He will also be accused of formalism, a style deemed incompatible with socialist realism. There remains an immediate history lesson and an often stunning film. The Austrian Jeremy Joseph, organist of the Court Chapel and professor at the University of Music in Vienna, will bring his talent as an improviser and will deploy all the power and colours of the Auditorium organ to give its strength to this memorable fresco.

Film music concert: Charlie Chaplin The Circus
Orchestre de la Suisse Romande conducted by Philippe Béran - Théâtre de Beaulieu


Program Info:
Charles Chaplin - The Circus

"Charles Chaplin's last silent film, more bitter in tone than the previous works, but full of humanity and poetry. Circus is a masterpiece, full of grotesque ingenuity, delicious ideas and clear, sharp images. Charlie sometimes looks like he's tired of the world. But as soon as he presses the forbidden buttons and drives the birds, pigs, rabbits and balloons into freedom, his face lights up with joy.” (Deutsches Filminstitut – DIF)

On the music: "In the late 1960s, after years of trying to forget this film, Chaplin returned to The Circus to be reissued with new music of his own composition. He even composed the title song, "Swing Little Girl," to be sung during the opening credits. A professional singer was hired to do it, but musical director Eric James found that Chaplin himself could sing the song much better. That's why he was persuaded - he was already 79 years old - to record the song. This seemed to symbolize Chaplin's reconciliation with the film that had caused him so much excitement." (David Robinson)
The vaudeville-style orchestral music reflects Charlie Chaplin's biographical background - growing up in the world of circus and variety shows. There are subtle but distinct differences in the way Chaplin musically approaches each circus act. While a march accompanies the acrobat, Chaplin places a light waltz for his vagabond's tightrope act, which does not indicate the danger at dizzy heights.

Charlie the Tramp finds work at the circus and the girl of his dreams.
While fleeing the police, who mistake him for a pickpocket, Charlie ends up in a circus arena. The audience thinks Charlie's attempts to elude the police are a new circus act, and they're enthralled. The ringmaster hires him on the spot, but soon realises that Charlie can't be funny on command. So the director arranges that Charlie "accidentally" attends every performance. Not realizing he's being taken advantage of, Charlie falls in love with the principal's daughter. His chances with the pretty acrobat are good. At least until a competitor shows up...

New Worlds
Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra conducted by Kirill Karabits - Beacon Hall


Program Info:
Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra
Kirill Karabits Conductor
Liya Petrova Violin

Dvořák’s homesick postcard home ‘From the New World’ jostles in a world of the American dream with Korngold’s lush, technicolour concerto.

In his Violin Concerto, Korngold reworked themes from several of his film scores. Full and romantic, the music certainly brings to mind the swashbuckling films of the period. With its full-throated lyricism and unbridled virtuosity, the main theme develops in freely rhapsodic fashion, embellished with pyrotechnic passagework that ascends into the stratosphere.

Remaining incredibly fresh and abounding with memorable melodies, the Ninth Symphony describes Dvořák’s spiritual and emotional journey from his intense longing for his beloved Bohemia to the thrill of the ‘New World’ and its varied peoples.

Gara Karayev forged his own distinctive use of native Azerbaijani folk music. The ballet The Seven Beauties brims with an exotic array of appealing rhythms and melodies.

Programme
Gara Karayev - The Seven Beauties Suite
Erich Wolfgang Korngold - Violin Concerto, the concerto has themes from the scores for the movies ANOTHER DAWN (1937), ANTHONY ADVERSE (1936) & THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937)

Jörg Widmann conducts Korngold and Mozart
Bamberger Symphoniker conducted by Jörg Widmann - Konzerthalle, Joseph-Keilberth-Saal


Program Info:
In 1784, the publicist Christian Friedrich Daniel Schubart raved about the clarinet: »The character of the clarinet is: feeling melted in love – so completely the sound of the sensitive heart.« Carl Maria von Weber was also enraptured by the orchestral instrument, which was still young at the time – especially because of the artist friendship with Heinrich Joseph Baermann, the famous clarinettist of the Munich court orchestra, who premiered the beautiful Concertino in 1811: an effective piece with a magnificent introduction, wonderful variations and a lively finale. We look forward to the virtuoso interpretation by Jörg Widmann, who will also conduct us through two other scores. Korngold, who was considered a musical genius and was later in demand as a film composer in Hollywood, occasionally returned to his homeland after the Second World War. The Vienna Philharmonic played his symphonic serenade for the first time in 1950 - which, together with sparkling melodies and somnambulistic nuances, exudes a large portion of nostalgia in memory of the long-gone Romantic era. Mozart's popular G minor symphony was written in 1788 at a time when he was living in Vienna more or less as a freelance artist. It impresses with grandiose melodic inventions and an individual instrumentation without drums and trumpets. Musically, “mysterious shudders” are expressed in emotions such as restlessness, excitement, lamentation and despair – a profound masterpiece that the “Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung” has already praised with the words: “It will never fail to have an effect, always irresistible to the soul of the listener take and carry away.«

Carl Maria von Weber - Concertino for clarinet and orchestra in E flat major op. 26
Erich Wolfgang Korngold - Symphonic Serenade for string orchestra in B flat major, Op. 39 uses a short motif from ANTHONY ADVERSE in the slow movement and a theme from CAPTAIN BLOOD in the finale.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Stiftung Kloster Eberbach


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Jaws in Concert
Charlotte Symphony - Belk Theater


Program Info:
John Williams - Jaws

The original summer movie blockbuster, with an Academy Award®-winning score that made John Williams a household name, Jaws is the ultimate film-with-live-orchestra experience!

Based on the best-selling novel by Peter Benchley and directed by Steven Spielberg, this masterpiece of suspense tells the tale of a small, New England seaside community terrorized by a predatory great white shark during the busiest weekend of the tourist season – the 4th of July.

After several local residents are killed in the waters just off shore, it falls to three unlikely heroes – police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider), marine scientist Matt Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) and surly local sea captain Quint (Robert Shaw) – to hunt down and kill the beast before more lives are lost.

Despite a notoriously difficult ocean shoot with constant technical challenges, Jaws became the most successful movie of all time (until the release of Star Wars two years later), and Spielberg has often credited Williams’ iconic score with much of the film’s success. Now for the first time, audiences will have the chance to experience the power of a live symphony orchestra performing the entire score in sync with one of the greatest motion pictures of all time.

In the words of Chief Brody… “You’re gonna need a bigger boat!”

Guest performance in the Margravial Opera House in Bayreuth
Bamberger Symphoniker conducted by Jörg Widmann - Margravial Opera House


Program Info:
In 1784, the publicist Christian Friedrich Daniel Schubart raved about the clarinet: »The character of the clarinet is: feeling melted in love – so completely the sound of the sensitive heart.« Carl Maria von Weber was also enraptured by the orchestral instrument, which was still young at the time – especially because of the artist friendship with Heinrich Joseph Baermann, the famous clarinettist of the Munich court orchestra, who premiered the beautiful Concertino in 1811: an effective piece with a magnificent introduction, wonderful variations and a lively finale. We look forward to the virtuoso interpretation by Jörg Widmann, who will also conduct us through two other scores. Korngold, who was considered a musical genius and was later in demand as a film composer in Hollywood, occasionally returned to his homeland after the Second World War. The Vienna Philharmonic played his symphonic serenade for the first time in 1950 - which, together with sparkling melodies and somnambulistic nuances, exudes a large portion of nostalgia in memory of the long-gone Romantic era. Mozart's popular G minor symphony was written in 1788 at a time when he was living in Vienna more or less as a freelance artist. It impresses with grandiose melodic inventions and an individual instrumentation without drums and trumpets. Musically, “mysterious shudders” are expressed in emotions such as restlessness, excitement, lamentation and despair – a profound masterpiece that the “Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung” has already praised with the words: “It will never fail to have an effect, always irresistible to the soul of the listener take and carry away.«

Carl Maria von Weber - Concertino for clarinet and orchestra in E flat major op. 26
Erich Wolfgang Korngold - Symphonic Serenade for string orchestra in B flat major, Op. 39 uses a short motif from ANTHONY ADVERSE in the slow movement and a theme from CAPTAIN BLOOD in the finale.

Now the symphonic musicians are going completely nuts! For the second evening of U-TURN | the orchestra, the musicians dare something never heard before: Robin Hood, the rascal from Sherwood Forest, experiences its world premiere as a live radio play with orchestra. The story will be presented by none other than comedy star Martina Hill. Sure, the interlude music from Korngold's The Adventures of Robin Hood is played by the orchestra, but you make the noises! So if you want to translate the rustling of the forest, the cheering of the followers or the languishing gaze of the lovers into the sound of the radio play, then you've come to the right place. Right in the middle there instead of just! Before that, conductor and composer Gordon Hamilton will present a piece from Shostakovich's phenomenal 5th symphony and his latest composition: The world is screwed - the blatant mix of orchestral sound and politicians' sayings. With quotes: Arnold Schwarzenegger (The Hero From California), Angela Merkel (mum from the Uckermark), Karl Lauterbach (office hours with Karl) and others.

Perspectives: Philip Glass Cocteau Trilogy
Katia Labèque Piano - Marielle Labèque Piano - National Concert Hall, Main Stage


Program Info:
Philip Glass - Orphée
Philip Glass - La Belle et la Bête, score for Jean Cocteau’s film from 1946
Philip Glass - Les Enfants Terribles
(suite for two pianos)

NCH is pleased to collaborate on this new commission by Katia and Marielle Labèque for Phillip Glass.

In 1964, at the age of 27, Philip Glass moved to Paris to study under Nadia Boulanger. Their meeting would prove decisive in the young composer’s training and afforded him an immersion into French culture that left a lasting impression on the artist. His love of France also gave him a command of the French language that would help him to write and versify the operas that he dedicated to Cocteau during the 1990s.

In 2021, Katia and Marielle Labèque created the instrumental suites for two pianos taken from Philip Glass’s opera Les Enfants Terribles, based on the film by Cocteau. The success of both the record and their concerts – held at venues including the Philharmonie de Paris – left the pianists all the more eager to ask Philip Glass and his music director Michael Riesman to complete the trilogy by applying the same method to the remaining two operas in the Cocteau Trilogy: Orphée and La Belle et la Bête.

Jaws in Concert
Charlotte Symphony - Belk Theater


Program Info:
John Williams - Jaws

The original summer movie blockbuster, with an Academy Award®-winning score that made John Williams a household name, Jaws is the ultimate film-with-live-orchestra experience!

Based on the best-selling novel by Peter Benchley and directed by Steven Spielberg, this masterpiece of suspense tells the tale of a small, New England seaside community terrorized by a predatory great white shark during the busiest weekend of the tourist season – the 4th of July.

After several local residents are killed in the waters just off shore, it falls to three unlikely heroes – police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider), marine scientist Matt Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) and surly local sea captain Quint (Robert Shaw) – to hunt down and kill the beast before more lives are lost.

Despite a notoriously difficult ocean shoot with constant technical challenges, Jaws became the most successful movie of all time (until the release of Star Wars two years later), and Spielberg has often credited Williams’ iconic score with much of the film’s success. Now for the first time, audiences will have the chance to experience the power of a live symphony orchestra performing the entire score in sync with one of the greatest motion pictures of all time.

In the words of Chief Brody… “You’re gonna need a bigger boat!”

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Wasserschloß Klaffenbach - Schloßhof


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Best of America
Orchestre Colonne - La Seine Musicale


Program Info:
America is not just about cowboys, Indians or Marvel heroes! A good opportunity to introduce children to the irresistible rhythms of jazz transposed to the slums of New York (West Side Story, here condensed in a Symphonic Suite where the main themes follow one another: Mambo, Somewhere, fight between the Jets and the Sharks…).

Jazz, musicals, urban colors, the influence of different cultures… America is all of these. The cinema too, illustrating the moving and true story of Oskar Schindler.

Very popular in Mexico and now all over the world, Márquez's Danzón n°2 will conclude this concert in an intoxication of rhythms and colors.

During this concert, make way for young people with a surprise work performed by small symphonic hands!

America
Orchestre Colonne - La Seine Musicale


Program Info:
Invited to New York to guide the first steps of the brand new Conservatory of Music, Dvořák realised that the American people still had everything to build: their art, their heritage. In a brilliant intuition, he suggested that young American composers rely on popular music, that from Native American and Afro-American cultures.

In a way, by imposing jazz in concert halls, Gershwin followed the path suggested by his illustrious elder: in February 1924, Rhapsody in Blue triumphed at the Aeolian Hall in New York. Two orchestrations coexist: the one – original for piano and jazz band – from 1924, then a second from 1942 when Ferdé Grofé, in memory of his friend's wishes, offered this Rhapsody an expanded symphonic setting.

At the end of the 1950s, jazz – already present on the stages of Broadway – was enriched with new urban rhythms: Juliet was now called Maria, Romeo became Tony, and Leonard Bernstein set the Winter Garden Theater ablaze with his West Side Story which sounded like an explosion.

Here is a beautiful walk in American lands, punctuated by the moving evocation of Oskar Schindler or the colourful Mexico of Arturo Márquez!

For this concert, the Orchester Colonne welcomes in its ranks some musicians of the Ondes Plurielles orchestra, in an outstretched hand towards enlightened amateur practice.

And then… and then, our essential “Invitation to travel” will surprise you again. This time, no clues. Come with confidence!

Program Info:

City of Bristol Choir
Exultate Singers
Tim Harrison, conductor
David Ogden, conductor
James Gilchrist, tenor

Three of Bristol’s leading ensembles collaborate for an unforgettable concert in our transformed venue’s opening season, celebrating the 150th anniversary of Gustav Holst’s birth with a performance of one of the most famous of all orchestral works.

The Planets Suite brings to life the character of our galaxy through sound, each movement depicting a planet of our solar system. From the relentless march of war-like Mars to the sweeping and expansive theme that identifies Jupiter, the work ends sublimely with the orchestra accompanied by a wordless chorus of sopranos and altos spaced around the auditorium embracing the audience in the mystical sounds of Neptune.

First performed in Gloucester Cathedral in 1950, Intimations of Immortality by Gerald Finzi is a setting of a poem by William Wordsworth. The words passionately describe a heavenly vision of nature, expressing how the beauty and joy of the natural world can ignite memories of our childhood and make connections to our own souls and lives. Internationally renowned tenor James Gilchrist sings the solo in this rarely-performed masterpiece.

Completing the programme is Earth by TV and film composer Hans Zimmer. This piece is a celebration for choir and orchestra of the beautiful planet we live on. With his trademark sense of scale and drama, the composer perfectly captures the majesty and beauty of our home, as if seen from space.

Cocteau Trilogy Philip Glass
Katia and Marielle Labèque, piano - Barbican Hall


Program Info:
Legendary sibling pianists Katia and Marielle Labèque present their recent collaboration with American minimalist composer Philip Glass: arrangements for two pianos of his Cocteau Trilogy.

In 2021, Katia and Marielle Labèque created instrumental suites for two pianos from Philip Glass’s opera Les Enfants Terribles, based on Jean Cocteau’s film. The result was so successful that they approached Glass to complete the set with the remaining two operas in the Cocteau Trilogy: Orphée and La Belle et la Bête. In a special collaboration with the Philharmonie de Paris, Katia and Marielle Labèque bring their ‘velveteen touch’ (Guardian) into a new dimension: suspended above the stage, a chandelier transports us to the intimate spaces within Cocteau’s stories, lighting up as it interacts with the music below.

‘The Labèque sisters are tremendous. They’re great performers, and great interpreters. And they’re wonderful supporters of music – not only modern music, but just music. It was great to work with them.’ – Philip Glass.

A cult composer for several generations of spectators, Ennio Morricone left his mark on his era. Composer, arranger, orchestrator and conductor of genius, he revolutionised the seventh art with classic genre cinema (western, horror, thriller), but also historical or dramatic, and goes so far as to sublimate current cinema with recent films by Quentin Tarantino.

60 years of career, more than 500 film scores and dozens of awards and nominations around the world, including a Grammy Hall of Fame and an Oscar of honour... Ennio Morricone is also Chevalier de la Légion d'honneur in France and Knight Grand Cross of the Order of Merit in Italy.

This tribute concert is produced with the utmost respect for the original works, with a selection of cult films, for the greatest respect to the Maestro who left us in July 2020 and who wanted more than anything that his music continues to to be performed on stages around the world.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Kufstein Festung


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Excerpt from the musical program:
The Lion King
Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator
Pearl Harbour
Interstellar
The Dark Knight
Dunkirk
Inception
Earth

Karl Bartos: The Cabinet of Dr Caligari
Karl Bartos' (ex-Kraftwerk) - Barbican Hall


Program Info:
Karl Bartos - The Cabinet of Dr Caligari

Robert Wiene's classic 1920's psychological thriller is set to Karl Bartos' (ex-Kraftwerk) haunting narrative film music and sound design.

The original, long lost, orchestral soundtrack (Giuseppe Becce) has given way to an immersive listening experience. Special sound effects match the action as we enter the film as both spectator and participant. A creaking door, foot-steps on gravel, the turning of pages in a ledger, and a half-heard fragment of dialogue are seamlessly synchronised to the action on screen.

Composing on piano and computer, Bartos approached the task as would any earlier composer, painstakingly creating a score which was then electronically orchestrated with the help of his musical partner, sound engineer Mathias Black.

Beautifully restored by the Friedrich-Wilhelm-Murnau-Foundation, experience a screening of The Cabinet of Dr Caligari set to Bartos' live film score.

The Toy Story films are beloved worldwide for their compelling characters, extraordinary storytelling, stunning visuals and the music of Randy Newman. The composer and songwriter is behind signature songs including “You’ve Got a Friend in Me,” “Strange Things,” and “I Will Go Sailing No More.”

Toy Story is a fantastic fun-filled journey, viewed mostly through the eyes of two rival toys—Woody, the lanky, likable cowboy, and Buzz Lightyear, the fearless space ranger. These toys find themselves on a hilarious adventure-filled mission where the only way they can survive is to form an uneasy alliance.

10. Philharmonic concert
Bergische Symphoniker conducted by Daniel Huppert - Theater und Konzerthaus, Großer Konzertsaal


Program Info:
John Adams created a masterpiece of feel-good music with his »Short ride in a fast machine«. According to the American composer, he had a frightening ride in his friend's Italian sports car in mind when he wrote the fast-paced, exuberant piece. Also a classic of American orchestral music, Gershwin's »Rhapsody in Blue« celebrates its 150th anniversary in 2024 - one more reason to bring the Broadway composer's fascinating work to the stage. Hollywood film music, on the other hand, touches on none other than Dmitri Shostakovich in this concert. His playful »Mosquito Suite« is reminiscent of the often forgotten, multifaceted film music work of the Russian sound creator.

John Coolidge Adams (1947) - Short Ride in a Fast Machine
George Gershwin (1898–1937) - Rhapsody in Blue
Dmitri Shostakovich (1906–1975) - The Gadfly, Suite op. 97a from music from the movie by Alexander Faintsimmer

Film Music (Public dress rehearsal)
Štátna filharmónia Košice (Slovak State Philharmonic) conducted by Rastislav Štúr - Dom umenia


Program Info:
A film with music creates a wonderful symbiosis of image and sound and affects our emotions every time we allow ourselves to be willingly absorbed in this magical world. However, music for films dealing with space is a special chapter. Original scores from history's greatest space films create fascinating sound worlds that allow the listener to forget mundane reality and stimulate their imagination and emotions. Film music contains magical moments, and the orchestral suites from these films represent one of the essential artistic elements in the work. Original music thus accompanies incredible stories about encounters with extraterrestrial civilisations, space shuttles, time travel, distant planets and the future of humanity, but at the same time it also brings strong philosophical, ethical and humane messages that concern us here and now. The audience's cinema experience is changing to a purely auditory one, and the recipe for the success of film music is, in addition to using all the achievements of modernism and the digital era, also using the tradition of symphonic and romantic music.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Schloss Bruchsal


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Stummfilmkonzert: Modern Times
Dortmunder Philharmoniker conducted by Gabriel Feltz - Konzerthaus Dortmund


Program Info:
Charles Chaplin - Modern Times

Charles Chaplin's Modern Times is a classic silent film that is still relevant today, uniquely balancing comedy, tragedy, bittersweet romance and horror. After an extensive restoration, the score could be brought into a version that could be performed live with an orchestra. In this form »Modern Times« comes to life in an unexpected way – far more than a movie.

In the film, which was made in 1936 after many years of preliminary work by Chaplin, the actor slips into his famous role as a clumsy, likeable tramp for the last time to accuse social misery and the automation of the world of work. The background of the film is the epoch of the "Great Depression" in the USA, which was dominated by mass unemployment and poverty in the wake of the stock market crash of 1929 and the global economic crisis. The plot first shows us Chaplin's tramp as an assembly line worker who is mistakenly imprisoned as a labour leader before falling in love, working as a waiter in a bar and finally together with his great love, embodied by Paulette Goddard, who Chaplin married shortly after filming finished uncertain future.

»Modern Times« balances in a unique way between comedy, tragedy, bittersweet romance and horror at the conditions. Numerous scenes and images from the film, such as Chaplin trapped between the cogs of a gigantic machine or the wheelchair ride in a deserted department store, repeatedly avoiding a fall by a hair's breadth, have entered the collective memory and have gained iconic status. The effect of the film is based to a very large extent on the precisely calculated interplay between the film images and the music, which was precisely imagined by Chaplin and recorded with the help of extremely professional studio musicians. In a painstaking detailed work that lasted 14 months, this film score was restored and brought into a version that can be performed live with an orchestra. In this form »Modern Times« comes to life in an unexpected way – far more than a movie.

The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Isle of Wight
(United Kingdom)
 

Thomas Luke, Piano
Isle of Wight Symphony Orchestra & Thomas Luke conducted by Jonathan Butcher - Medina Theatre


Program Info:
Paul Dukas’ La Péri is a 1912 ballet in one act and is about a man’s search for immortality and an encounter with a mythological Péri (a winged, fairy-like creature). The original music to the ballet was written in 1911 as a Poème Dansé En Un Tableau (Dance Poem in One Scene), and was Dukas’ last published work. The opening fanfare is often performed separately and is a fitting start to our concert.

Festivities, an orchestral overture by British composer Roy Douglas, was written 1972. Although having a large output of his own, Roy Douglas worked alongside Ralph Vaughan Williams, William Walton and Richard Adinsell as editor, copyist and amanuensis. his favourite recreation was motorcycling, travelling throughout England on a Triumph 200cc Tiger Cub until his doctor ordered him to stop after his 80th birthday

Roy Douglas also orchestrated Richard Adinsell’s music for the 1941 film Dangerous Moonlight, which contained the popular Warsaw Concerto. The story revolved around a Polish airman who was also a concert pianist. Addinsell wanted the Warsaw Concerto to sound like Rachmaninov, so while Douglas was working on the orchestration he surrounded himself with the miniature scores of the second and third piano concertos and the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. Thomas Luke returns to delight the IWSO audience once more.

Ponchielli’s Dance of the Hours from La Gioconda and is structured in five parts, each representing a portion of the day: dawn, day, dusk, night and the return to morning. It was featured in the Walt Disney film Fantasia, where ostriches, hippos, elephants and alligators perform it as a comic ballet.

Walton’s Orb and Sceptre was composed for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. It has a similar form to Crown Imperial which in turn almost certainly influenced heavily by Elgar’s Pomp & Circumstance Marches. From the opening fanfare to the lyrical middle section and triumphant end this coronation march is everything a regal event requires.

Pam Wedgwood is one of the most recognisable names in educational music with her series Jazzin’ About, Up-Grade! and After Hours, from which many pieces have been selected for graded examinations all over the world. Pam now resides on the Isle of Wight where she is an active member of the community music scene. Her orchestral suite Three Card Trick will be receiving its premiere at this concert.

For some Richard Rodney Bennett was the composer for Four Weddings and a Funeral, for others he was one of the finest jazz pianists of our time. His Party Piece for piano and small orchestra is a delightful work which is very much steeped in jazz and blues and as the title suggests, a nice little number for the soloist to show their technical skills.

Billy the Kid is a one-act ballet drawn from the notorious semi-fictitious outlaw Henry McCarty, also known as Billy the Kid, as a romanticised emblem of the passions and dangers of the Wild West. The suite was first performed in New York in 1941. The music describes crowd scenes, card games (complete with an out-of-tune piano), gunfire, and some reflective moments.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Seestern-Panorama-Bühne


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Naturtheater Steinbach - Langenbach


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Intimate and intricate
Musicians of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra - Sydney Opera House, Utzon Room


Program Info:
The writing is anything but juvenile, richly textured and deceptively complex, bursting with enthusiasm and virtuosity.

Maurice Ravel wrote his gripping Sonata for Violin and Cello in 1920, and dedicated it to the memory of his friend and colleague, Claude Debussy. There are moments of glowing textures that recall Debussy, and the incredibly detailed and intricate interplay of the two instruments is trademark Ravel. This enchanting duet is a thrilling musical adventure.

Argentinian composer Astor Piazzolla brought the sounds and rhythms of Argentinian tango into the concert hall, creating a new blend of tango, jazz and classical music known as nuevo tango (new tango). These pieces are among his finest and showcase the expressive richness and sophisticated harmonies that are so characteristic of his writing.

Program
Leoš Janáček - Mládí
Maurice Ravel - Sonata for Violin and Cello
Astor Piazzolla - Libertango
Astor Piazzolla - Oblivion, composed in 1984 for the movie Henry IV (Enrico IV) by the Italian director Marco Bellocchio

Amadeus Live: screening of a film by Miloš Forman
Choir and Orchestra of the Wrocław Opera conducted by Dawid Runtz - Hala Stulecia (Centennial Hall)


Program Info:
On the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the premiere of Amadeus , the Choir and Orchestra of the Wrocław Opera will perform live music for the film, which will be displayed on a large screen in HD quality. We will hear the most famous pieces by Mozart, and the orchestra and choir will be led by Dawid Runtz. The evening at the Centennial Hall is a tribute to the famous work, which tells the story of the clash between two composers: a joyful, vulgar genius (Tom Hulce as Mozart) and a haughty, talentless envious (Oscar winner F. Murray Abraham as Salieri). Amadeus will seduce not only music lovers and lovers of classical music, but also all viewers who love cinema and want to participate in a unique celebration of one of the most recognised films of the 20th century. Wrocław thus joins the elite group of cities (including Tokyo, Toronto, Seoul, Paris) participating in the Amadeus Live project . The world premiere of Forman's film with live music took place in 2016 at London's Royal Albert Hall.

The event takes place as part of the 24th mBank New Horizons IFF.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Kasemattenbühne


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Ritual Groove
Basil Sinfonietta conducted by Titus Engel - Reithalle, Kaserne Basel


Program Info:
Basil Sinfonietta
Titus Engel, conductor
Nik Bärtsch's Mobile: Nik Bärtsch, piano; Sha, alto saxophone and bass clarinet; Nicolas Stocker, drums and percussion
Daniel Eaton, Lighting Design

The Swiss pianist and composer Nik Bärtsch dispenses with virtuoso capers in his music, which is characterized by rituals, reduction and the appeal of repetition. He draws inspiration from an understanding of time that stems from Zen Buddhism. With his formations, Nik Bärtsch has created a completely unique style of music somewhere between jazz, funk and minimal music.

While he has been appearing with his zen funk group Ronin every Monday at Club Exil in Zurich for almost 15 years and touring through Asia, Europe, North America and Africa, he practices with his acoustic formation Mobile a meditative, tonally and rhythmically highly idiosyncratic «ritual Groove Music», which is now combined for the first time with a large orchestra in his new work, commissioned by the Basel Sinfonietta.

The Icelandic composer and cellist Hildur Guðnadóttir has already won numerous Grammys, Emmys and an Oscar for her film music for the American thriller blockbuster "Joker". Most recently, she caused a sensation with her soundtrack to the Oscar-nominated drama "Tár" about a star conductor and a concertmaster of a large Berlin orchestra (with Cate Blanchett and Nina Hoss as the musician couple).

In the first part of this concert evening, the Basel Sinfonietta presents music by Hildur Guðnadóttir from different creative periods: “Ascent” and “Opaque” from her early concept album “Without Sinking” and “Baer” from the album “Saman”. And as a special highlight, the piece "For Petra" from the current feature film "Tár".

Hildur Guðnadóttir (*1982) - Ascent for orchestra (2009)
Hildur Guðnadóttir (*1982) - Opaque for string orchestra (2009)
Hildur Guðnadóttir (*1982) - Baer for cello and string orchestra (2014)
Hildur Guðnadóttir (*1982) - For Petra for orchestra from the current feature film "Tár (2022)

Open Air 2 "The Gold Rush"
Georgisches Kammerorchester Ingolstadt conducted by Ariel Zuckermann - Turm Baur


Program Info:
Charles Chaplin - The Goldrush

Act and appearance, reality and dream, action and poetry: With the silent film "Gold Rush" in 1924, Charlie Chaplin became world famous almost overnight. Unforgettable is the scene in which he devours a shoe as a starving gold miner. The background is deeply tragic. Alaska in 1898: staked out by gold fever, the vagabond Charlie is looking for his luck. What follows are countless disappointments, dangers and hardships. Charlie also has to assert himself against the rough manners of the other gold diggers. His unswerving adherence to hope and his unshakeable belief in goodness are rewarded in the end: not only in the form of gold, but also in the form of a beautiful singer. A triumph of love. The music is no less effective: it is played live by the GKO. An intoxicating feast for the senses!

A cooperation with the Kino Open Air Turm Baur.

Open Air 2 "The Gold Rush"
Georgisches Kammerorchester Ingolstadt conducted by Ariel Zuckermann - Turm Baur


Program Info:
Charles Chaplin - The Goldrush

Act and appearance, reality and dream, action and poetry: With the silent film "Gold Rush" in 1924, Charlie Chaplin became world famous almost overnight. Unforgettable is the scene in which he devours a shoe as a starving gold miner. The background is deeply tragic. Alaska in 1898: staked out by gold fever, the vagabond Charlie is looking for his luck. What follows are countless disappointments, dangers and hardships. Charlie also has to assert himself against the rough manners of the other gold diggers. His unswerving adherence to hope and his unshakeable belief in goodness are rewarded in the end: not only in the form of gold, but also in the form of a beautiful singer. A triumph of love. The music is no less effective: it is played live by the GKO. An intoxicating feast for the senses!

A cooperation with the Kino Open Air Turm Baur.

The great soundtracks of John Williams
Orchestra Sinfonica Siciliana conducted by Antonino Manuli - Colle San Vito - Ciminna


Program Info:
Sicilian Symphony Orchestra
Antonino Manuli, conductor
Ciminna - St. Vincent's College

Winner of five Oscars for best soundtrack, with the adaptation of the musical Fiddler on the Roof (1971), with Jaws (1975), Star Wars (1977), E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982) and Schindler's List (1993) , John Williams is certainly one of the most famous composers of film music. Among his successes there is certainly the soundtrack to the film ET the Extra-Terrestrial , a film by Steven Spielberg, released in theatres in June 1982 on which the American film critic Roger Ebert expressed himself thus: «This is not simply a good movie. It's one of those films that sweeps away our fears and wins our hearts." The composition of the soundtrack was not, however, easy for Williams who, with this music, won the fourth of his five Oscars. Williams, in fact, in addition to having to write the music for some scenes that he did not have the opportunity to see or that he saw in a provisional form without special effects and sounds, had to make an objectively ugly being like ET sympathetic with his musical comments. The scene in which he found the most difficulty was certainly the final sequence, for which Spielberg left Williams free to write it as he saw fit, deciding to re-edit it all at the end so that he could match the music. The suite, The adventures on Earth collects some of the most significant pages of the soundtrack, from those of greatest impact to others of more intense lyricism.

Also by Steven Spielberg is Jurassic Park , released in cinemas in 1993, for which Williams wrote a soundtrack that was supposed to express sensations such as amazement and fascination at the presence of dinosaurs seen in person. Opened by a horn solo, the Theme is a page of intense lyricism.

Released in 2001, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is the first instalment of the Harry Potter film series, whose soundtrack was composed by John Williams in his homes in Los Angeles and Tanglewood. Of this soundtrack it will be proposed to listen to 's theme , Hedwig the main theme of all the films in the series, whose characteristic is the use of the celesta that initially exposes it, and Harry's Wondrous World ( The marvellous Harry's World ), where the world of the famous wizard is described by means of a rich orchestral palette.

soundtrack with the following words: of the Schindler's List The composer himself recalls its genesis

“During the summer of 1993, it was my great privilege to compose the music for Steven Spielberg's outstanding film, Schindler's List . The ennobling plot of the film, set in the midst of the immense tragedy of the Holocaust, provided the opportunity to create not only dramatic music, but also themes that reflected the most tender and nostalgic aspects of Jewish life during these turbulent years.

For this part of the score I gave the lead to a solo violin, accompanied by the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and our greatest fortune was to have Itzhak Perlman as soloist for the recording."

From the soundtrack of the famous film, inspired by the novel by Thomas Keneally based on the true story of Oscar Schindler, a German entrepreneur who saved 1100 Jews during the Second World War, we propose listening to the very tender and sweet initial theme .

The concert ends with the suite from the Star Wars soundtrack in which , initially, George Lucas, the father of the saga, made up of six films, gathered together in a double trilogy and produced between 1977 and 2005, he intended to include operatic music consisting of famous songs on the model of 2001 A Space Odyssey . Only later, at the suggestion of his friend and colleague Steven Spielberg, did the American director decide to entrust the task of composing the music to Williams who made use of Leitmotifs to characterise characters and situations. Among the most famous songs we must remember the Main Theme which opens all the films of the saga and The imperial March , also called Darth Vader's Theme because it underlines his appearances.

The Kid
Orchestre national de Cannes conducted by Benjamin Levy - Palais des Festivals et des Congrès


Program Info:
Charles Chaplin - The Kid

Charlie Chaplin's The Kid and his sequences, which have been part of the collective imagination for a century now, will be screened at the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès in Cannes. Enhanced with the original soundtrack that the Cannes Orchestra will bring to life on the eve of the end-of-year celebrations.
Treat yourself to an evening with the family and (re)immerse yourself in the tragicomic world of this immense masterpiece of silent cinema.

The tone of the film is established by the first title: “A film with a smile… and perhaps also, a tear”, while another announces the story “The woman whose sin is to be a mother”.

A destitute woman abandons her infant in a luxurious car asking the person who finds it to take care of this child. But the car is stolen by two thugs who separate from it a few streets further. Charlot, a poor glazier passing by, discovers the baby, tries to get rid of this new, unwanted responsibility, but becomes attached to him. He is not at the end of his troubles...

In 1971, 50 years after the film's release, Charlie Chaplin designed the score for The Kid which covers the entire duration of the film. Chaplin partners with composers for the orchestration of his melodic ideas. There are nods to jazz, but also touches of waltz and forays into cabaret, so many different atmospheres to match the emotions released by the images.

Yet, the sole hope for triumph over evil lies with a brave hobbit, Frodo, who, accompanied only by his loyal friend Sam and the hideous, wretched Gollum, ventures deep into the very dark heart of Mordor on his seemingly impossible quest to destroy the Ring of Power.

The concert hall of the Arena Klosters transformed into a special cinema with popcorn, a large screen and a symphony orchestra is an unforgettable experience. At the end of the festival, film music becomes even more of a focal point. Whether it’s “James Bond” or “Star Wars”, “Harry Potter” or “Indiana Jones”, “Lawrence of Arabia” or “Dances with Wolves” – the City Light Symphony Orchestra covers them all. Under the reliable direction of Kevin Griffiths, action films meet romances. The thrilling music by composers such as John Barry, John Williams, Ennio Morricone, Charles Chaplin, Maurice Jarre and others is accompanied by film sequences and images. An evening of fond memories and great emotions!

Program Info:
Howard Shore - The Lord of the Rings: The The Return of the King

The Cleveland Orchestra
Ludwig Wicki, conductor
Blossom Festival Chorus
Cleveland Orchestra Children's Chorus

One ring to rule them all... This summer at Blossom, The Cleveland Orchestra presents The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King with live orchestral underscore. In the conclusion of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic masterpiece, as armies mass for a final battle that will decide the fate of Middle Earth--and powerful, ancient forces of Light and Dark compete to determine the outcome--one member of the Fellowship of the Ring is revealed as the noble heir to the throne of the Kings of Men. Yet, the sole hope for triumph over evil lies with a brave hobbit, Frodo, who, accompanied only by his loyal friend Sam and the hideous, wretched Gollum, ventures deep into the very dark heart of Mordor on his seemingly impossible quest to destroy the Ring of Power.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Burgarena Finkenstein


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Excerpt from the musical program:
The Lion King
Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator
Pearl Harbour
Interstellar
The Dark Knight
Dunkirk
Inception
Earth
Da Vinci Code
Man of Steel
Spider-Man

Ennio Morricone:

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
Bach Festival Symphony, Choir, and youth choir - Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts


Program Info:
Howard Shore - The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

Composer Howard Shore brings J.R.R. Tolkien’s literary imagination to vivid life with his Academy®- and Grammy® Award-winning score to The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Shore’s music expresses Peter Jackson’s film as an immense symphonic work—a uniquely developed vision drawn from centuries of stylistic tendencies.

The music of The Lord of the Rings is counted among film music’s most complex and comprehensive works. This unique performance sets the score to the film, but allows the music to bear the narrative weight, creating a wholly new and dramatic live concert experience.

Shore’s score not only captures Fellowship’s sweeping emotion, thrilling vistas and grand journeys, but also echoes the very construction of Tolkien’s Middle-earth. Styles, instruments and performers collected from around the world provide each of Tolkien’s cultures with a unique musical imprint. In operatic fashion, these musical worlds commingle, sometimes combining forces for a culminated power, other times violently clashing…and always bending to the will of the One Ring and its own ominous family of themes.

Fairytales & Broomsticks: Harry Potter, Hänsel & Gretel and more
New Zealand Symphony Orchestra conducted by André de Ridder - Michael Fowler Centre


Program Info:
Bring the kids on a trip to Fairyland with the NZSO! André de Ridder will work his magic over this entertaining musical romp for the whole family.

Hansel and Gretel, two intrepid child adventurers who encounter a candy house and a wicked witch, are immortalised in music by two different composers. New Zealander Claire Cowan wrote the music to RNZB’s hugely successful Hansel and Gretel ballet, while German composer Engelbert Humperdinck wrote his own blockbuster based on the same fairytale, the 1893 opera Hänsel und Gretel. While their music describes the plucky children, Dvořak’s tone poem The Noonday Witch describes – you guessed it – a terrifying witch. But John Williams’s score for the Harry Potter films reveals a world of friendly witches and wizards, ready to sweep you away on a magical adventure.

Claire Cowan Selection from Hansel and Gretel
Humperdinck Selection from Hänsel and Gretel
Dvořák Noonday Witch
John Williams Selection from the Harry Potter film Soundtracks

Orchestra - Burg Strausnitz


Program Info:
Howard Shore - Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit

The film adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's masterpiece THE LORD OF THE RINGS literally lives off the monumental music of Oscar winner Howard Shore. To experience the well-known film music with symphonic orchestra, choir and the Tolkien ensemble in concert is not only a thrilling adventure for Middle-earth fans.

Transform the theater on the wholesale market into a musical scene of Middle-earth. Howard Shore's film music will provide the very finest of headscapes in a highly emotional and pictorial way, and the audience in J.R.R. Suck in Tolkien's story.

HOWARD SHORE, who composed the music for the film trilogies "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit", was awarded three Oscars for this and his leitmotif, as in Richard Wagner's Ring Trilogy, lets the audience feel when It becomes threatening when the Ring unfolds its power and corrupts its wearer, SHORE is one of Hollywood's most successful film composers, and is also responsible for the Gangs of New York, Panic Room, and The Aviator soundtracks.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Burg Trausnitz


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Fairytales & Broomsticks: Harry Potter, Hänsel & Gretel and more
New Zealand Symphony Orchestra conducted by André de Ridder - Auckland Town Hall


Program Info:
Bring the kids on a trip to Fairyland with the NZSO! André de Ridder will work his magic over this entertaining musical romp for the whole family.

Hansel and Gretel, two intrepid child adventurers who encounter a candy house and a wicked witch, are immortalised in music by two different composers. New Zealander Claire Cowan wrote the music to RNZB’s hugely successful Hansel and Gretel ballet, while German composer Engelbert Humperdinck wrote his own blockbuster based on the same fairytale, the 1893 opera Hänsel und Gretel. While their music describes the plucky children, Dvořak’s tone poem The Noonday Witch describes – you guessed it – a terrifying witch. But John Williams’s score for the Harry Potter films reveals a world of friendly witches and wizards, ready to sweep you away on a magical adventure.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Albrechtsburg Meissen


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Hans Zimmer (film music concert)
Stavanger Symphony Orchestra conducted by Omer Shteinhart - Stavanger Konserthus


Program Info:
Pirates of the Caribbean. Inception. The Lion King. The Holiday. Movies you remember the music from, no matter how long it's been since you saw them. For 35 years, Hans Zimmer has left a big mark on film music, and is considered one of the greatest film music composers of all time. Welcome to a concert dedicated to film music by the legendary composer.

After his breakthrough with "Rain Man" in 1988, he has composed for over 200 films and TV series. Despite minimal formal music education, he has established himself as one of film history's significant figures.

In the 80s he founded a studio, with a vision of combining traditional orchestral sound with electronic instruments, an approach that still characterizes much of his music.

After the success of "Rain Man," Hans Zimmer's name was linked to several major films, including "On a Walk with Miss Daisy." Although both films won the Oscar for Best Picture, it was not until the animated film "The Lion King" from 1994 that Zimmer won his first Oscar for Best Original Score, as well as a Golden Globe and two Grammy Awards.

Zimmer has continued to be a central figure in Hollywood, with contributions to iconic films such as “Gladiator,” “Black Hawk Down,” “The Da Vinci Code,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “Inception,” and “The Dark Knight ” trilogy. In 2021, his music for the blockbuster film "Dune" was awarded his second Oscar and third Golden Globe.

Credited in 200 films according to IMDb, twelve Oscar nominations, three Golden Globe wins and four Grammy Awards, Hans Zimmer has cemented his position as one of the premier film score composers, alongside legends such as John Williams and Ennio Morricone. At 66 years of age, he shows no signs of slowing down.

This evening it is the music that gets full attention, so the concert will be played without a film on the screen.

Program:
Klaus Badelt/Hans Zimmer - Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (arr. Gottfried Rabl)
Hans Zimmer - On Tour with Miss Daisy (arr. Nic Raine)

To experience the well-known film music with symphonic orchestra, choir and the Tolkien ensemble in concert is not only a thrilling adventure for Middle-earth fans.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Freilichtbühne Schlossgarten


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Waldbühne Altenbrak


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The James Bond Concert Spectacular
Q The Music Show conducted by Warren Ringham - Cheltenham Town Hall, Imperial Square


Program Info:
Q The Music’s James Bond Concert Spectacular is the world’s most critically acclaimed tribute to the music of James Bond.

Formed in 2004 as the world’s first dedicated tribute to the music of 007, they have become known for their stirring emotional and adrenaline-fueled performances, mixed in with superb musicianship and flair. Every Bond fan club around the world recognizes them as the finest performances of the songs since the originals.

Some of the most notable praise has come from hugely influential Bond related stars including:

Bond Composer David Arnold: “They do a phenomenal job”

Former James Bond George Lazenby: “They did John Barry proud”

Sir Roger Moore’s Office (following his Memorial): “They helped make a wonderful day an extraordinary day”

Steven Saltzman (son of legendary Bond producer Harry Saltzman): “You did my Dad proud”

Even The Times national newspaper raved about their performance in a 4-star review of their West End debut: “It’s hard to imagine this music being served better. Simply stunning.”

The show has become synonymous with top events around the world when it comes to James Bond. In 2017 they were asked to perform at Sir Roger Moore’s official memorial event at Pinewood Studios. In 2019 they performed at an event with George Lazenby: the 50th anniversary event for On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, held at Piz Gloria in the Swiss Alps.

The show features all the Bond songs such as Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, Live and Let Die and Nobody Does It Better performed by musicians taken from the UK’s leading orchestras, sessions and shows. Caroline Bliss, who played Moneypenny in The Living Daylights and Licence To Kill, will guide you through the concert as compere, sharing the odd anecdote about her time working in this legendary series.

With stunning singing, exquisite musicianship, an informative compere, and a show full of iconic tunes, it really is a night guaranteed of the highest quality. Don’t miss it.

Joie de Vivre
Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra conducted by Nodoka Okisawa - Great Hall, Auckland Town Hall


Program Info:
Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra
Nodoka Okisawa, conductor
Louis Schwizgebel, piano

Three French composers, and a Japanese one for whom French music was a significant inspiration. Tōru Takemitsu, filmmaker Kurosawa’s favourite composer, wrote film music as visionary and powerful as his concert music.

Ravel’s homage to his Baroque predecessor seems ageless, but its cool façade conceals quiet sadness. So too does Poulenc’s marvellous Sinfonietta, witty music shot through with wistful shards.

Rather less complexity in Saint-Saëns’ concerto, which is all about a pianist giving us a display of utterly astonishing virtuosity. Sparkling Swiss pianist Louis Schwizgebel obliges, with Takemitsu’s compatriot Nodoka Okisawa conducting the Auckland Philharmonia in repertoire she has made her own.

Maurice Ravel - Le Tombeau de Couperin
Camille Saint-Saëns - Piano Concerto No.2
Toru Takemitsu - Three Film Scores for String Orchestra: Music of Training and Rest (from José Torres); Funeral Music (from Black Rain); Waltz (from Face of Another)

Myrskyluoto Maija film concert
Vantaan Pops Orchestra - Helsinki Music Centre, Musiikkitalo Concert Hal


Program Info:
Lauri Porra - Myrskyluoto's Maija

An additional performance of the highly popular Vantaa Entertainment Orchestra's Myrskyluoto Maija movie concert!

The tragic love story set in the barren outer archipelago comes to life when the film Myrskyluoto's Maija, which premieres in January, is shown on the big screens of the Musiikkitalo in its entirety, accompanied by the large symphony orchestra ensemble of the Vantaa Entertainment Orchestra.

The novelty film, which contains great emotions and a lot of love, was directed by Tiina Lymi and is based on the Myrskyluoto book series by author Anni Blomqvist. The lead roles in this film, set in an outer archipelago and full of emotions, are played by Swedish actors Amanda Jansson and Linus Troedsson. The film is produced by Solar Films.

A film concert (in English Cine Concert or Film Concert) is a concert form that has found a solid foothold in the world. The Vantaa Entertainment Orchestra has also performed film concerts in the past, e.g. From the movies Harry Potter, Star Wars, Snowman and Metsä tarina. Now we are looking forward to a new domestic film, of which we have also managed to produce a concert version. The film concert does not compete with the film shown in the cinema, but two different versions of the story are now available, both of which are worth experiencing.

The music for the new Myrskyluoto Maija movie was composed by Lauri Porra. The iconic theme song composed by Lasse Mårtenson from the 1976 Myrskyluoto Maija television series will also be heard at the concert.

The duration of the film is 2 h 43 min, without intermission.

The James Bond Concert Spectacular
Q The Music Show conducted by Warren Ringham - Bournemouth Pavillion


Program Info:
Q The Music’s James Bond Concert Spectacular is the world’s most critically acclaimed tribute to the music of James Bond.

Formed in 2004 as the world’s first dedicated tribute to the music of 007, they have become known for their stirring emotional and adrenaline-fueled performances, mixed in with superb musicianship and flair. Every Bond fan club around the world recognizes them as the finest performances of the songs since the originals.

Some of the most notable praise has come from hugely influential Bond related stars including:

Bond Composer David Arnold: “They do a phenomenal job”

Former James Bond George Lazenby: “They did John Barry proud”

Sir Roger Moore’s Office (following his Memorial): “They helped make a wonderful day an extraordinary day”

Steven Saltzman (son of legendary Bond producer Harry Saltzman): “You did my Dad proud”

Even The Times national newspaper raved about their performance in a 4-star review of their West End debut: “It’s hard to imagine this music being served better. Simply stunning.”

The show has become synonymous with top events around the world when it comes to James Bond. In 2017 they were asked to perform at Sir Roger Moore’s official memorial event at Pinewood Studios. In 2019 they performed at an event with George Lazenby: the 50th anniversary event for On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, held at Piz Gloria in the Swiss Alps.

The show features all the Bond songs such as Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, Live and Let Die and Nobody Does It Better performed by musicians taken from the UK’s leading orchestras, sessions and shows. Caroline Bliss, who played Moneypenny in The Living Daylights and Licence To Kill, will guide you through the concert as compere, sharing the odd anecdote about her time working in this legendary series.

With stunning singing, exquisite musicianship, an informative compere, and a show full of iconic tunes, it really is a night guaranteed of the highest quality. Don’t miss it.

Prague Proms: Reviens Bébel!
Czech National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Marcello Rota - Municipal House, Smetana Hall


Program Info:
Our fans had the opportunity to attend a performance dedicated to the rugged film and theatre actor Jean-Paul Belmondo at an extraordinary concert of the Czech National Symphony Orchestra in 2022. The remarkable success of the event and our admiration of this legendary actor has led us to revisit our project, Reviens Bébel! This time as part of the Prague Proms.

Jean-Paul Belmondo, nicknamed Bébel, excelled in star roles as irresistible adventurers or cynical heroes. In collaboration with the greatest French film makers, he showed courage and superb physical acumen, able to take on even the riskiest scenes without doubles or stuntmen. He could also play psychologically demanding characters with bravura. The famous actors Jean Gabin and Alain Delon were his partners in film, while the mesmerising Tunisian Italian actress Claudia Cardinale exemplifies his colleagues of the female persuasion.

The concert, which is held in the Smetana Hall of the Municipal House in Prague, invites listeners to enjoy the most famous film melodies that are forever inseparably entwined with the one-and-only Bébel. Conducted by Italy’s Marcello Rota, the programme includes music from hits like Hold-Up, Cop or Hood, That Man from Rio, Breathless, or Le Magnifique.

Hans Zimmer and his team at Bleeding Fingers also worked in collaboration with Brit-winning and Grammy-nominated band Bastille for the music score and Mercury Prize Award nominated singer-songwriter RAYE.

Hans Zimmer commented: “Creating scores for any of the BBC's Natural History series is always an honour for me as there are no more epic stories than those occurring naturally every day in our own planet’s ecosystem. For Planet Earth III it’s been a further privilege to work with the incredible world class talents of Bastille who created wonderful vocals on the soundscape for the series, and RAYE with her a beautiful, poignant prequal track”.

This ultimate concert experience will take audiences across every corner of the planet from deserts and grasslands, through forests, along coastlines and into the depths of the ocean, with extraordinary stories of animal dramas that are thrilling, funny and sometimes heart-breaking. As always, the natural world continues to surprise, and this concert will show how animals are adapting in extraordinary ways to survive new challenges faced at this crucial time in history where humans play a central role.

The series itself was filmed over 1,904 days, in 43 countries and across six continents. Mike Gunton, the Executive Producer of the Planet Earth III television series says: “Planet Earth III is about the resilience and adaptability of nature, and the remarkable animals that are changing their lives to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world dominated more than ever by a powerful force: us. It’s full of surprise and wonder but seen from a new perspective”.

Dominic Walker, Global Business Director at BBC Studios said: “After the successful Blue Planet II and Planet Earth II Live In Concert tours, we are delighted to continue our partnership with FKP Scorpio and bring the amazing Planet Earth III to London and Manchester, showcasing the BBC’s ground breaking natural history content on the stage for fans to enjoy once again.”

“You must feel the Force around you…”

The battle for the galaxy intensifies in this thrilling fifth episode of the unfolding saga. As Imperial Forces launch an all-out attack on the Rebel Alliance, Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) flee to Cloud City where they are captured by Darth Vader.

Program Info:
Hans Zimmer and team - Planet Earth III

BBC Studios are delighted to announce that Planet Earth III Live in Concert is set to thrill audiences.

Following on from the critically acclaimed and successful Blue Planet II and Planet Earth II Live in Concert arena tours, the much-anticipated Planet Earth III Live in Concert will include specially selected breath-taking footage from the latest sensational television series produced by the multi-award-winning BBC Studios Natural History Unit will be shown in 4K ultra high definition on a gigantic LED screen. Playing alongside, the concert will feature the remarkable music score by Oscar winner Hans Zimmer, Jacob Shea and Sara Barone for Bleeding Fingers Music, performed by the fabulous City of Prague Philharmonic orchestra.

Hans Zimmer and his team at Bleeding Fingers also worked in collaboration with Brit-winning and Grammy-nominated band Bastille for the music score and Mercury Prize Award nominated singer-songwriter RAYE.

Hans Zimmer commented: “Creating scores for any of the BBC's Natural History series is always an honour for me as there are no more epic stories than those occurring naturally every day in our own planet’s ecosystem. For Planet Earth III it’s been a further privilege to work with the incredible world class talents of Bastille who created wonderful vocals on the soundscape for the series, and RAYE with her a beautiful, poignant prequal track”.

This ultimate concert experience will take audiences across every corner of the planet from deserts and grasslands, through forests, along coastlines and into the depths of the ocean, with extraordinary stories of animal dramas that are thrilling, funny and sometimes heart-breaking. As always, the natural world continues to surprise, and this concert will show how animals are adapting in extraordinary ways to survive new challenges faced at this crucial time in history where humans play a central role.

The series itself was filmed over 1,904 days, in 43 countries and across six continents. Mike Gunton, the Executive Producer of the Planet Earth III television series says: “Planet Earth III is about the resilience and adaptability of nature, and the remarkable animals that are changing their lives to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world dominated more than ever by a powerful force: us. It’s full of surprise and wonder but seen from a new perspective”.

Dominic Walker, Global Business Director at BBC Studios said: “After the successful Blue Planet II and Planet Earth II Live In Concert tours, we are delighted to continue our partnership with FKP Scorpio and bring the amazing Planet Earth III to London and Manchester, showcasing the BBC’s ground breaking natural history content on the stage for fans to enjoy once again.”

Every Bond fan club around the world recognizes them as the finest performances of the songs since the originals.

Some of the most notable praise has come from hugely influential Bond related stars including:

Bond Composer David Arnold: “They do a phenomenal job”

Former James Bond George Lazenby: “They did John Barry proud”

Sir Roger Moore’s Office (following his Memorial): “They helped make a wonderful day an extraordinary day”

Steven Saltzman (son of legendary Bond producer Harry Saltzman): “You did my Dad proud”

Even The Times national newspaper raved about their performance in a 4-star review of their West End debut: “It’s hard to imagine this music being served better. Simply stunning.”

The show has become synonymous with top events around the world when it comes to James Bond. In 2017 they were asked to perform at Sir Roger Moore’s official memorial event at Pinewood Studios. In 2019 they performed at an event with George Lazenby: the 50th anniversary event for On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, held at Piz Gloria in the Swiss Alps.

The show features all the Bond songs such as Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, Live and Let Die and Nobody Does It Better performed by musicians taken from the UK’s leading orchestras, sessions and shows. Caroline Bliss, who played Moneypenny in The Living Daylights and Licence To Kill, will guide you through the concert as compere, sharing the odd anecdote about her time working in this legendary series.

This ultimate concert experience will take audiences across every corner of the planet from deserts and grasslands, through forests, along coastlines and into the depths of the ocean, with extraordinary stories of animal dramas that are thrilling, funny and sometimes heart-breaking. As always, the natural world continues to surprise, and this concert will show how animals are adapting in extraordinary ways to survive new challenges faced at this crucial time in history where humans play a central role.

The series itself was filmed over 1,904 days, in 43 countries and across six continents. Mike Gunton, the Executive Producer of the Planet Earth III television series says: “Planet Earth III is about the resilience and adaptability of nature, and the remarkable animals that are changing their lives to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world dominated more than ever by a powerful force: us. It’s full of surprise and wonder but seen from a new perspective”.

Dominic Walker, Global Business Director at BBC Studios said: “After the successful Blue Planet II and Planet Earth II Live In Concert tours, we are delighted to continue our partnership with FKP Scorpio and bring the amazing Planet Earth III to London and Manchester, showcasing the BBC’s ground breaking natural history content on the stage for fans to enjoy once again.”

Revisiting one of Earth’s longest-lived dynasties, the dinosaurs, viewers will bear witness to the cataclysmic downfall that led to the age of the mammals and the rise of the most dangerous animal the earth has ever seen: us.

As it traces our lineage across this epic journey, Life on Our Planet underscores our unique status as the only species in the four-billion-year story of the planet as we know it to understand what is happening to our world and what is needed to put it right. After all, there’s one thing the past has shown us: life always finds a way.

Sir Roger Moore’s Office (following his Memorial): “They helped make a wonderful day an extraordinary day”

Even The Times national newspaper raved about their performance in a 4-star review of their West End debut: “It’s hard to imagine this music being served better. Simply stunning.”

In 2019 they performed at an event with George Lazenby: the 50th anniversary event for On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, held at Piz Gloria in the Swiss Alps.

The show features all the Bond songs such as Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, Live and Let Die and Nobody Does It Better performed by musicians taken from the UK’s leading orchestras, sessions and shows.

(Un)Silent Film: Nosferatu
Louisville Orchestra - Whitney Hall at the Kentucky Performing Arts Center


Program Info:
Sebastian Chang - Nosferatu

Dive into a night of thrilling suspense with the Louisville Orchestra’s (Un)Silent Film: Nosferatu on October 23. Watch the iconic silent film ‘Nosferatu (1922)’, a masterpiece of horror that tells the eerie tale of Count Orlok, a vampire from Transylvania who brings terror and plague upon his quest for a new home and a fresh victim. This chilling tale comes alive like never before with a haunting live score by Sebastian Chang, performed by the mesmerizing Louisville Orchestra during the film. After a spellbinding world premiere last year, this masterpiece returns for its second annual performance, promising an evening where music and shadow meld into an unforgettable spectacle. Grab your tickets for this unique blend of gothic horror and harmonic beauty.

Sebastian Chang, composer for ‘Nosferatu’ describes the piece, “It took a couple of months to complete the original score. The piece uses different motifs to represent different characters. Because there’s no dialogue it depends entirely on the music to feed the audience the emotions that I want them to lean towards when they’re viewing the film. I did a short score of about four staves, and then I expanded that out to orchestration. My inspiration came from all the great composers of the Classical tradition, and probably all of the old Hollywood scores, from the 50s or the 70s.”

Casino Royale – in Concert
City Light Symphony Orchestra conducted by Kevin Griffiths - KKL


Program Info:
David Arnold - Casino Royale

With “Casino Royale” James Bond 007 can once again be experienced as an integral film-music spectacle. While the tough spy thriller shines on the big screen, the City Light Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Kevin Griffiths plays the gripping film music by composer David Arnold live for the film!

In 2006, EON Productions and MGM achieved a spectacular reboot of the Bond franchise with “Casino Royale”. The 21st Bond film became the most successful part of the long-running series at the time. In addition, actor Daniel Craig made his debut as the legendary MI6 agent in “Casino Royale,” with his performance receiving much praise from fans and critics.

Directed by Martin Campbell, “Casino Royale” tells of Bond’s turbulent start to his career. Newly given the 00 status and the license to kill, Bond is sent to meet Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), the unscrupulous financier of terrorist activities.

The hunt for Le Chiffre takes Bond from the Malagasy jungle to the beautiful sandy beaches of the Bahamas and finally to the luxurious Casino Royale in Montenegro, where gigantic stakes lead to a showdown at the poker table.

The fast-paced finale takes place in a breathtaking chase on the Grand Canal in Venice. Bond is accompanied by the beautiful British treasury agent Vesper Lynd (Eva Green). She has been tasked with keeping a close eye on 007 while he plays poker with big stakes against Le Chiffre. But it doesn't stop there, because Bond also gets involved in a dangerous liaison with Lynd.

“Casino Royale” – in Concert, the first part of the new James Bond Concert Series , was produced by Film Concerts Live! produced in collaboration with EON Productions and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios (MGM).

Bram Stoker's Dracula - In Concert
Chicago Philharmonic Orchestra - Auditorium Theatre


Program Info:
Wojciech Kilar - Bram Stoker's Dracula

This will be the North American premiere of this production.

Francis Ford Coppola’s cinematographic retelling of Bram Stoker’s novel became a box office hit in 1992, crowned by three Academy Awards. Its fresh and bold conceptual energy turned the movie into the most influential vampire film in decades. A film whose opulence and sense of spectacle triggered a whole new wave of contemporary horror films. One of the film’s strengths was coming back to Bram Stoker’s original novel instead of adapting the more popular theater play from the 1920s.

Polish composer Wojciech Kilar (1932-2013), one of the most respected European composers of the last decades, was chosen to write the original score. As Coppola did in 1 972 when he approached Italian composer Nino Rota to score THE GODFATHER, the surprising choice of Wojciech Kilar would break all musical molds of the genre. Belonging to the generation of Krzysztof Penderecki and Henryk Górecki, Kilar’s glorious score dwells between lush romanticism, mysticism and avantgarde. Although Kilar had written dozens of soundtracks for European films before, it is BRAM STOKER’S DRACULA that ensures his position in the pantheon of film music legends.

Featuring our 2023 Young Instrumentalist Prize winner, Ein Na, Saint-Saens’ fiery Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso is a show of incredible virtuosity, thrilling until its final beat. From Beethoven to Tchaikovsky, Sibelius to Strauss, this jam-packed concert is a smorgasbord of musical delights, all under the baton of Eduardo Strausser.

Bond Composer David Arnold: “They do a phenomenal job”

Former James Bond George Lazenby: “They did John Barry proud”

Sir Roger Moore’s Office (following his Memorial): “They helped make a wonderful day an extraordinary day”

Steven Saltzman (son of legendary Bond producer Harry Saltzman): “You did my Dad proud”

Even The Times national newspaper raved about their performance in a 4-star review of their West End debut: “It’s hard to imagine this music being served better. Simply stunning.”

The show has become synonymous with top events around the world when it comes to James Bond. In 2017 they were asked to perform at Sir Roger Moore’s official memorial event at Pinewood Studios. In 2019 they performed at an event with George Lazenby: the 50th anniversary event for On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, held at Piz Gloria in the Swiss Alps.

The show features all the Bond songs such as Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, Live and Let Die and Nobody Does It Better performed by musicians taken from the UK’s leading orchestras, sessions and shows. Caroline Bliss, who played Moneypenny in The Living Daylights and Licence To Kill, will guide you through the concert as compere, sharing the odd anecdote about her time working in this legendary series.

Top Gun: Maverick – in Concert
21st Century Orchestra conducted by Ludwig Wicki - KKL, concert hall


Program Info:
Lorne Balfe, Harold Faltermeyer, Lady Gaga, and Hans Zimmer - Top Gun: Maverick

Tony Scott's 1986 film "Top Gun" reached breathtaking heights, not least thanks to the world-famous song "Take My Breath Away" and the soundtrack by Harold Faltermeyer. Even back then there was speculation about a sequel to the screen epic and its film music. The sequel “Top Gun: Maverick” by Joseph Kosinski only followed 36 years later and is considered one of the most successful films of all time with six Oscar nominations and one Oscar win.

The film music experience “Top Gun: Maverick – in Concert” follows on from this. While the award-winning blockbuster is shown on the big screen, the 21st Century Orchestra, conducted by Ludwig Wicki, brings the soundtrack to life live at the KKL Lucerne.

“Is that even possible?” Tom Cruise, aka Lieutenant Pete “Maverick” Mitchell, answers this question confidently in 2022: “The answer lies solely with the captain in the cockpit.” Maverick, one of the Navy's best aviators, once again pushes the limits of what is possible, this time alongside the confident Natasha "Phoenix" Trace. Back at his old elite flying school “Top Gun”, he is supposed to prepare young pilots for a dangerous mission – and in doing so he meets the ghosts of his past.

Action-packed flight scenes and deep emotions are once again set to music by Harold Faltermeyer, supported by Oscar winners Hans Zimmer and Lady Gaga as well as Lorne Balfe as co-composers. Peppered with a breath of fresh air under the wings, the soundtrack continues the musical legacy of “Top Gun” from 1986.

Top Gun: Maverick – in Concert
21st Century Orchestra conducted by Ludwig Wicki - KKL, concert hall


Program Info:
Lorne Balfe, Harold Faltermeyer, Lady Gaga, and Hans Zimmer - Top Gun: Maverick

Tony Scott's 1986 film "Top Gun" reached breathtaking heights, not least thanks to the world-famous song "Take My Breath Away" and the soundtrack by Harold Faltermeyer. Even back then there was speculation about a sequel to the screen epic and its film music. The sequel “Top Gun: Maverick” by Joseph Kosinski only followed 36 years later and is considered one of the most successful films of all time with six Oscar nominations and one Oscar win.

The film music experience “Top Gun: Maverick – in Concert” follows on from this. While the award-winning blockbuster is shown on the big screen, the 21st Century Orchestra, conducted by Ludwig Wicki, brings the soundtrack to life live at the KKL Lucerne.

“Is that even possible?” Tom Cruise, aka Lieutenant Pete “Maverick” Mitchell, answers this question confidently in 2022: “The answer lies solely with the captain in the cockpit.” Maverick, one of the Navy's best aviators, once again pushes the limits of what is possible, this time alongside the confident Natasha "Phoenix" Trace. Back at his old elite flying school “Top Gun”, he is supposed to prepare young pilots for a dangerous mission – and in doing so he meets the ghosts of his past.

Action-packed flight scenes and deep emotions are once again set to music by Harold Faltermeyer, supported by Oscar winners Hans Zimmer and Lady Gaga as well as Lorne Balfe as co-composers. Peppered with a breath of fresh air under the wings, the soundtrack continues the musical legacy of “Top Gun” from 1986.

A Celebration of the Music from Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit
Orchestra - Warwick Arts Centre


Program Info:
Step into the worlds of Westeros and Middle-Earth this winter with a celebration of the music from Game of Thrones, The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, some of the most popular on-screen creations of all time. Scores from the fantasy series and adventure films are to be performed live by a symphony orchestra and choir on December 6th at Warwick Arts Centre.

The HBO hit series Game of Thrones, which at the height of its popularity averaged 32 million viewers per episode, is based on the 8-volume series of books by George R. R. Martin and follows the power struggle for the iron throne among the houses of Westeros.

A symphony orchestra will bring to life the Game of Thrones soundtrack compiled by Grammy nominated score composer and student of Hans Zimmer, Ramin Djawadi, known for his work on the 2008 Marvel film Iron Man.

As well as the Game of Thrones soundtrack, the symphony orchestra will also perform the scores from the original trilogy of The Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King. Directed by Peter Jackson, the series of films are among the highest grossing of all time, winning a combined 17 out of the 30 Academy Awards they were nominated for.

Composed by Howard Shore, the soundtrack from the fantasy series features music of unparalleled power. The success of the The Lord of the Rings’ soundtrack led Shore to also score Peter Jackson’s follow-up prequels to Lord of the Rings; The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, The Desolation of Smaug, and The Battle of the Five Armies.

The show comes off the back of two sell out shows in previous years at Nottingham Royal Concert Hall and London’s Palladium where Sci-Fi Bulletin observed, “the audience loved it, some great music”.

Her work for orchestra, chorus, and percussion ensemble is characterized by its use of African instruments and colorful, multilayered rhythms. Ortiz says, “[Yanga] speaks to the greatness of humanity when in search of equality and the universal right to enjoy freedom to the fullest.” Revueltas’ film score La noche de los Mayas digs deeper into Mexico’s ancient culture brought into conversation with the modern world, bolting through thunderous, dynamic rhythms and a flute interlude based on a traditional Yucatan evening song. Within the music is what poet Octavio Paz describes as Revueltas’ “deep-felt but also joyful concern for man.”

Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari
Karl Bartos - Prinzregententheater


Program Info:
Robert Wiene's silent film classic from 1920 with new film music composed by ex-Kraftwerk musician Karl Bartos

The silent film “The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari” by Robert Wiene from 1920 is an absolute classic and is considered the first psychological thriller in film history. One person who has dealt particularly intensively with this milestone in the history of expressionist film is the composer and musician Karl Bartos - better known to many as a long-time band member and co-composer of Kraftwerk. Karl Bartos, a classically trained musician, has had a passion for this German silent film for almost 20 years. Now he has created a new, experimentally interpreted sound for the film. This new film music will premiere at the Alte Oper Frankfurt in February 2024. The digitally restored film version in 4K resolution meets Karl Bartos' film music, which he live on stage with his partner Mathias Black . plays and controls

Bartos is guided by the rhythm and tempo of the scenes. The most important means of expression for him was the timeless sound of the symphony orchestra, of course synthetically produced and electronically modulated. We hear melodies in the Bachian tradition of the Baroque era and the early Romanticism of Mozart, we hear the dissonances of Arnold Schönberg, the disturbing metrical playing of Stravinsky and Philip Glass' harsh dramatic repetitions. Outside of the classical tradition, there are the folksy bricolage sounds of the fairground barrel organ, lapel tape effects, and sounds that would fit right in with a classic-era Kraftwerk album.

Coco in Concert
St. Louis Symphony Orchestra conducted by Stéphane Denève - Stifel Theatre


Program Info:
Michael Giacchino - Coco

Federico Ramos, guitar

Celebrate the ageless power of music with Disney/Pixar’s Coco on the big screen as your St. Louis Symphony Orchestra performs the movie’s magical score live with guitarist Federico Ramos. Inspired by the Mexican holiday Day of the Dead, the film follows 12-year-old Miguel as he enters the Land of the Dead to find his great-great-grandfather, a legendary singer, and confront his family's ancestral ban on music. Don’t miss this evening where every melody is a memory, and every song is a bridge between worlds.

A few things to know:
Whenever you see the main character Miguel play his guitar in the movie, you are seeing an animation of Federico Ramos’ hands.
Award-winning actor and filmmaker Gael García Bernal provided the voice for the character Héctor in the English, Spanish, and Italian versions of Coco. This is relatively rare in animation as different actors are typically used for different language versions.
Among other awards, composer Michael Giacchino won a 2007 Grammy Award for his score for Ratatouille and the 2009 Academy Award® and Grammy® for his original score for Up.

Brahms Odyssey
California Symphony Orchestra conducted by Donato Cabrera - The Lesher Center for the Arts


Program Info:
Explore the orchestra with Britten's lively guide, Bates' modern movie tour, and Brahms' emotive final symphony.

What’s Interesting About This Concert
Fun for people of all ages, Britten’s Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra uses a catchy theme to introduce different instruments in the orchestra one by one, making it a great way to learn about the symphony.
Former Resident Composer Mason Bates invokes the spirit of Disney’s classic Fantasia in his Grammy-winning concerto for orchestra and animated film, guided by a mischievous sprite.
Brahms’ fourth and final symphony is a deeply emotional, poignant masterpiece. Even though he lived on for more than a decade after its premiere, it was the last symphony Brahms ever wrote and many consider it to be the pinnacle of his career.

Día de Los Muertos with Dudamel
Los Angeles Philharmonic conducted by Gustavo Dudamel - Walt Disney Concert Hall


Program Info:
Celebrating Day of the Dead with vibrant Afro-Mexican and Brazilian music

Gustavo Dudamel leads a festive exploration of Latin American music for Día de los Muertos with Villa-Lobos’ progressive tour de force and Gabriela Ortiz’s 2019 Yanga. Her work for orchestra, chorus, and percussion ensemble is characterized by its use of African instruments and colorful, multilayered rhythms. Ortiz says, “[Yanga] speaks to the greatness of humanity when in search of equality and the universal right to enjoy freedom to the fullest.” Revueltas’ film score La noche de los Mayas digs deeper into Mexico’s ancient culture brought into conversation with the modern world, bolting through thunderous, dynamic rhythms and a flute interlude based on a traditional Yucatan evening song. Within the music is what poet Octavio Paz describes as Revueltas’ “deep-felt but also joyful concern for man.”

Program
Villa-Lobos - Chôros No. 10, “Rasga o Coração”
Gabriela ORTIZ - Yanga, LA Phil commission with generous support from R. Martin Chavez

Intermission

Coco in Concert
St. Louis Symphony Orchestra conducted by Stéphane Denève - Stifel Theatre


Program Info:
Michael Giacchino - Coco

Federico Ramos, guitar

Celebrate the ageless power of music with Disney/Pixar’s Coco on the big screen as your St. Louis Symphony Orchestra performs the movie’s magical score live with guitarist Federico Ramos. Inspired by the Mexican holiday Day of the Dead, the film follows 12-year-old Miguel as he enters the Land of the Dead to find his great-great-grandfather, a legendary singer, and confront his family's ancestral ban on music. Don’t miss this evening where every melody is a memory, and every song is a bridge between worlds.

A few things to know:
Whenever you see the main character Miguel play his guitar in the movie, you are seeing an animation of Federico Ramos’ hands.
Award-winning actor and filmmaker Gael García Bernal provided the voice for the character Héctor in the English, Spanish, and Italian versions of Coco. This is relatively rare in animation as different actors are typically used for different language versions.
Among other awards, composer Michael Giacchino won a 2007 Grammy Award for his score for Ratatouille and the 2009 Academy Award® and Grammy® for his original score for Up.

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King in concert
230-piece symphony orchestra, choirs and foreign soloists - O2 Universum


Program Info:
Howard Shore - The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

The journey of the “Fellowship of the Ring” is over, the decisive battle for Middle-earth begins! Enjoy the dramatic conclusion of the entire trilogy in a unique film performance accompanied by live music by Oscar-winning composer Howard Shore performed by a 230-piece symphony orchestra, choirs and foreign soloists.

The concert with a spectacular film projection will take place twice, on November 8 and 9, 2024, in the modern concert hall O2 universum Prague.

The film The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, based on the book by J. R. R. Tolkien, premiered in the Czech Republic on 15 January 2004. Its attendance reached three quarters of a million viewers. Although more than 20 years have passed since its release, this groundbreaking work has not lost anything in the audience’s popularity. On the contrary, new and new generations admire its perfection. The wonderful music for the entire trilogy was composed by Howard Shore, who received two Oscars for it (for The Fellowship of the Ring and The Return of the King). The final song of the entire saga, Into the West, sung by the famous Annie Lennox, was awarded the third Oscar.

“The large scale of the music requires a symphony orchestra, a mixed choir, a boys’ choir and instrumental and vocal soloists singing in Tolkien’s literary languages, but of course also in English,” explains the author. His compositional art is fully manifested here and creates the second plan of the story perfectly. Styles and instruments from different corners of the world complete and characterize the individual elements of Tolkien’s saga.

The film Return of the King received eleven Oscars and thus entered the hall of fame of films with the highest number of golden statuettes. The completion of the epic trilogy established director Peter Jackson forever on the throne of the creators of fantasy films, and his name is etched in the memory of millions of people around the world. Tolkien himself referred to his Middle-earth books as a work that he believed could not be translated to the screen. The production team led by Peter Jackson, with all the love and respect for this work, proved the opposite, and thanks to them we now have the opportunity to watch the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy in HD quality. “The Lord of the Rings has been my passion since childhood, the opportunity to translate this world onto the screen was also the fulfilment of my dream,” said Jackson in one of the interviews after the premiere of The Return of the King.

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King in concert
230-piece symphony orchestra, choirs and foreign soloists - O2 Universum


Program Info:
Howard Shore - The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

The journey of the “Fellowship of the Ring” is over, the decisive battle for Middle-earth begins! Enjoy the dramatic conclusion of the entire trilogy in a unique film performance accompanied by live music by Oscar-winning composer Howard Shore performed by a 230-piece symphony orchestra, choirs and foreign soloists.

The concert with a spectacular film projection will take place twice, on November 8 and 9, 2024, in the modern concert hall O2 universum Prague.

The film The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, based on the book by J. R. R. Tolkien, premiered in the Czech Republic on 15 January 2004. Its attendance reached three quarters of a million viewers. Although more than 20 years have passed since its release, this groundbreaking work has not lost anything in the audience’s popularity. On the contrary, new and new generations admire its perfection. The wonderful music for the entire trilogy was composed by Howard Shore, who received two Oscars for it (for The Fellowship of the Ring and The Return of the King). The final song of the entire saga, Into the West, sung by the famous Annie Lennox, was awarded the third Oscar.

“The large scale of the music requires a symphony orchestra, a mixed choir, a boys’ choir and instrumental and vocal soloists singing in Tolkien’s literary languages, but of course also in English,” explains the author. His compositional art is fully manifested here and creates the second plan of the story perfectly. Styles and instruments from different corners of the world complete and characterize the individual elements of Tolkien’s saga.

The film Return of the King received eleven Oscars and thus entered the hall of fame of films with the highest number of golden statuettes. The completion of the epic trilogy established director Peter Jackson forever on the throne of the creators of fantasy films, and his name is etched in the memory of millions of people around the world. Tolkien himself referred to his Middle-earth books as a work that he believed could not be translated to the screen. The production team led by Peter Jackson, with all the love and respect for this work, proved the opposite, and thanks to them we now have the opportunity to watch the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy in HD quality. “The Lord of the Rings has been my passion since childhood, the opportunity to translate this world onto the screen was also the fulfilment of my dream,” said Jackson in one of the interviews after the premiere of The Return of the King.

With this new show I want to preserve the culture of the orchestra and let the audience discover the unique facets of orchestral music. There are a lot of backstories I'd like to tell and old companions and friends I'd like to introduce.
Hans Zimmer

In addition to the music, the audience can enjoy beautiful visual projections of film sequences. With The World of Hans Zimmer, the composer has created a glamorous, vibrant and exciting live experience.

The Great Dictator in concert
City Light Symphony Orchestra conducted by Timothy Brock - KKL


Program Info:
Chalres Chaplin - The Great Dictator

Experience the silent film masterpiece on the big screen with live original music

“Our ammunition is laughter and with it we target the vanity of men who place themselves above other men.” This is what Charlie Chaplin said in an interview in August 1940. With “The Great Dictator,” Charlie Chaplin attempted his most delicate mission – it was his first talkie and at the same time his last appearance as a tramp. As a result, he achieved a memorable masterpiece that was nominated for 5 Oscars in 1941 – including “best film” and “best film score”. The world premiere of “The Great Dictator” took place on October 15, 1940 and the film had to be shown in two cinemas at the same time due to the large number of visitors.

“The Great Dictator” tells the story of a Jewish hairdresser (Charlie Chaplin) who finds himself in a new world after spending 20 years in a hospital as a World War I invalid and suffering from amnesia due to an accident. The district in which his barbershop is located is now considered a ghetto for Jews and dissidents. And so the Jewish hairdresser and the laundress Hannah (Paulette Goddard), between whom a romance is brewing, end up in a dramatic whirlpool of events, which the tramp always knows how to outwit...

As with his previous two films, “City Lights” and “Modern Times,” Charlie Chaplin also composed the music for “The Great Dictator,” collaborating with 38-year-old American composer Meredith Willson. In addition to an excerpt from Brahms' Hungarian Dance No. 5 and an excerpt from Wagner's Lohengrin Prelude, every note of the film music is original and perfectly tailored to what is happening on the screen.

In 2023, the Chaplin Office in Paris commissioned a restoration of the film's music. This was done by Chaplin music expert Timothy Brock and can now be heard for the first time ever in German-speaking Switzerland.

Experience “The Great Dictator” on the big screen in the concert hall, while the 75-member City Light Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Timothy Brock himself, plays the film music live and precisely!

John Williams & Hans Zimmer Odyssey
Curieux Orchestre conducted by Daniel Sicard - Le Phare - Grand Chambéry


Program Info:
From Star Wars to Interstellar, including Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean, Jurassic Park, Gladiator and many others, come and rediscover these cinematic masterpieces like you've never heard them before.
Combining the 15 musicians of the bustling Curieux Orchester with sound design and electronic sounds, this experience ...unique offers an immersion that is both intimate and dynamic through the major works of these two genius composers: John Williams and Hans Zimmer.

Curieux Orchester is an orchestral ensemble of young professional musicians from the largest national conservatories and orchestras, artistically and musically directed by Daniel Sicard.
Curieux Orchester frees itself from classical codes and proudly claims to be “pop”, both in the accessibility of its programs and in the way of implementing them. Combining high musical standards and popular repertoire, the orchestra's DNA is to explore the alchemy that exists between the different arts and to offer unusual experiences beyond the simple concert (film concerts, concerts with dance and speeches). …); while also encountering different aesthetics (electro, pop, metal, etc.).
The majority of Curieux's projects arise from a desire for commitment, for access to culture for all (free tours in villages, hospitals), education (in partnership with Orchester à l'Ecole), and ecology (in partnership with Avant l’Orage / Camille Etienne). ”

Program Info:
Craig Armstrong - Love Actually

Get ready for a reunion with the most cheerful the Christmas classic of them all. Oslo Konserthus ensures the Christmas atmosphere when we transform the large concert hall into a "film hall" and show Love Actually with the Stockholm Concert Symphony Orchestra.

Love Actually is one star-studded film from 2003, which elegantly shows the vulnerability of falling in love and intelligent, grotesque humor. Together, it becomes a gem of Christmas magic.

The film takes place in London in December, where different people for better or for worse struggling with love and falling in love: It is among other, the newly elected prime minister, the sandwich delivery man and the abdicated the rock star. And many many more.

What they all have in common is that they take a few chances and now stand much at stake. This results in a number of comical and sad situations with lots of emotion and drama. As most of us can nod in recognition to, from the heady rush of happiness to total humiliation...

Look forward to experiencing Keira Knightley, Liam Neeson, Emma Thompson, Alan Rickman, Colin Firth, and Hugh Grant and many more reach the concert hall turn on the Christmas spirit to the fullest and show Love Actually live symphony orchestra.

The Stockholm Concert Orchestra plays the music for the film!

The Muppet Christmas Carol sees The Muppets perform the classic Charles Dickens holiday tale, with Kermit the Frog playing Bob Cratchit, the put-upon clerk of stingy Ebenezer Scrooge (Michael Caine).

The film also features Miss Piggy as Emily Cratchit, Gonzo as the narrator Charles Dickens, Fozzie Bear as Fozziwig, and Robin the Frog as Tiny Tim.

Film Music Concert "Avatar" and "Titanic" and the most beautiful songs by James Horner
Polish Radio Orchestra conducted by Maciej Sztor - COS Torwar


Program Info:
On December 6, the COS Torwar Hall in Warsaw will host the premiere of a concert dedicated to the work of James Horner - the author of soundtracks for over a hundred Hollywood films, including the most profitable productions in the entire history of cinema: "Avatar" and "Titanic".

The Polish Radio Orchestra in Warsaw and the Warsaw University of Technology Choir, conducted by Maciej Sztor, will perform James Horner's most famous compositions for films such as: "Avatar", "Titanic", "Brave Heart", "Apollo 13", "Glory" and "Alien". The concert program will also include the latest music for "Avatar 2". The solo parts will be sung by Anna Lasota, and the narration will be led by Magda Miśka-Jackowska.

A specially selected original repertoire will allow you to appreciate the stylistic richness and talent of James Horner - one of the most outstanding contemporary film music composers, orchestrators and conductors. In his unforgettable soundtracks, he skillfully combined choral, instrumental and electronic sounds. He has successfully created music for historical cinema, science fiction, drama, horror and animation. He was able to portray any musical color, and in his statements he often compared composing to painting.

2 performances

In a very short time, Horner became one of the most sought-after Hollywood composers. He has collaborated with the best musicians in the world and great directors, such as George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Mel Gibson and Olivier Stone. In 1987, Horner received his first Oscar nomination for the score for Aliens. However, he received the coveted Academy Award statuettes only in 1998 for the soundtrack to the film "Titanic" and for the song "My heart will go on", which he co-wrote with Will Jennings.

“Horner's music requires a very efficient performing apparatus that can reproduce all the nuances of the score and realize the entire palette of colors in a noble and subtle way. His music flows, it cannot be contained within frames," summarizes conductor Maciej Sztor.

The songs performed live by the choir and orchestra will be illustrated by projections of film fragments and the most famous film frames on a cinema screen.

Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel
Live orchestra - Alte Oper, Großer Saal


Program Info:
Karel Svoboda - Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel

Who doesn't know the theme song of the Christmas classic “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella”? For over 50 years, the fairytale heroine has been riding dreamily on her gray horse Santa Claus through snow-covered landscapes, delighting generations of viewers. Cinderella takes her fate into her own hands, fights for great happiness and shows the prince exactly where to go right from the first encounter in the forest. Headstrong and with his heart in the right place - that's what defines the film to this day. Since its first broadcast in 1973, the light-hearted film fairy tale with its snowy backdrop and wintry-romantic atmosphere has been an integral part of the Christmas program. This cinematic Christmas miracle is due to strange circumstances: the original script called for Cinderella to run across “blooming meadows”; But because the film studios for the Czech-German co-production were already scheduled for the summer, director Václav Vorliček had the story moved to the winter without further ado.

Once again, the beautiful Cinderella and her prince can look forward to a very special stage: For several years now, “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella” has regularly sold out concert halls at Christmas time in German-speaking countries, whose podiums are transformed into the setting for the enchanting love story. While the fairytale film unfolds on a large screen, the film soundtrack by Karel Svoboda is played live by a large symphony orchestra and synchronised scene by scene with the romantic and funny adventures. Shortly after the Cinderella soundtrack, Svoboda received his first orders from the West and his theme tunes for animated films such as “Maya the Bee”, “Wickie” and “Nils Holgersson” were created.

Home Alone in concert
Royal Northern Sinfonia conducted by Anthony Gabriele - The Glass House, Sage One


Program Info:
John Williams - Home Alone

Our orchestra Royal Northern Sinfonia, playing the music whilst the movie is on the big screen.

John Williams’ beautiful score – he also wrote the music to E.T and loads of other family favourites. Expect lots of sleigh bells, sparkly twinkly tunes, some festive pop hits like Jingle Bell Rock and of course, this film’s very own theme Somewhere in My Memory.

This movie is definitely an old favourite for lots of people – and quickly becomes a new favourite if you’re seeing it for the first time. It’s a heartwarming and hilarious Christmas classic. When 8-year-old Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) is accidentally left behind when his family goes on holiday for Christmas, he revels in his newfound freedom. However, his joy is short-lived when he discovers that two bumbling burglars, Harry and Marv (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern), plan to rob his home. Kevin devises a series of ingenious traps to defend his house, turning it into a booby-trapped fortress. The film is a delightful blend of slapstick humour and heartwarming moments as Kevin learns the importance of family and the true meaning of Christmas.
Haven’t I seen that cast before?

Macaulay Culkin was one of those child actors from the 90’s that appeared in loads of hits. Remember Ritchie Rich?! The fun and bubbly John Candy appears in this one too. Macaulay Culkin’s brother – Kieran – plays one of the kids in this… you might recognise him now as Roman in Succession. And who could forget Catherine O’Hara, playing Kevin’s mother, who lots of us remember from films like Beetlejuice and is now being iconic all over again in Schitt’s Creek.

While the fairytale film unfolds on a large screen, the film soundtrack by Karel Svoboda is played live by a large symphony orchestra and synchronized scene by scene with the romantic and funny adventures. Shortly after the Cinderella soundtrack, Svoboda received his first orders from the West and his theme tunes for animated films such as “Maya the Bee”, “Wickie” and “Nils Holgersson” were created. But only the enchanting melody to which the princess races through the snow on her white horse can evoke such blissful feelings of happiness in the audience.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Stadthalle Tuttlingen


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Pirates of the Caribbean

Szczecin
(Poland)
 

Williams / Harry Potter
Szczecin Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra conducted by Maria Sydor - Filharmonia Szczecin


Program Info:
John Williams, Patrick Doyle, Alexandre Desplat - Harry Potter symphonic suite
John Powell - How To Train Your Dragon
Paul Dukas - The Sorcerer's Apprentice

It is already a tradition at the Philharmonic that every year in May we take you to the world of the best film music. Last season it was music from the Star Wars movie , this time on our concert menu: Harry Potter - symphonic suite ! The adventures of the young wizard were told in a total of eight films. The saga became a huge box office success. Films about the adventures of Harry Potter, shot in 2001-2011, earned $7.7 billion worldwide (source: filmweb.pl ).

The suite that will open our concert consists of the most famous musical motifs from Harry Potter films, written by John Williams (born 1932), one of the most famous film music composers in history (56 Oscar nominations, including 5 statuettes), author music for the parts: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone , Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban , Patrick Doyle (born 1953), creator of the soundtrack for the parts of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and Alexandre Desplat (born 1961), whose music can be heard in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Parts I and II .

After the break, we will return to the world of magic and sorcerers thanks to the next songs. We will hear music from the famous film by the creators of Shrek and Madagascar , which has had three subsequent parts. We are, of course, talking about the famous film How to Train Your Dragon , with music written by John Powell (born 1963). He is also the author of music for almost 70 other films, for which he was nominated several times for a Grammy and an Oscar.

This literally magical evening will end with the symphonic poem The Sorcerer's Apprentice by the French composer Paul Dukas (1865-1935). The work is subtitled Scherzo after Goethe's ballad , because it was inspired by Goethe's poem from 1797 under that title. The plot told in the poem can be briefly summarised as follows: in the absence of the sorcerer, the student wants to test the strength of the acquired magical powers. So he enchants the broom to carry water. The trick works and more water appears. However, when it becomes dangerously high, the student realises that he no longer remembers how to cancel the spell. Terrified that he will inevitably flood the entire house, he splits the broom in half with an axe, which only makes matters worse. Because now two brooms are constantly carrying water. However, everything has a happy ending, as the situation is saved by the sorcerer. It is this funny story that Dukas's piece tells, so it is a work of programmatic music, i.e. with a specific theme. It is also the most famous and most frequently performed work by the French composer. And although it was never written for the big screen, it was used in an animated film by Walt Disney Fantasia from 1940, in which Mickey Mouse himself played the role of the titular student. Thanks to this, the fame of this piece went beyond the walls of concert halls and it became widely known to a wider audience.

On this evening with film music, the Szczecin Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra will be led by Maestra Maria Sydor , an excellent young conductor, assistant to the artistic director and chief conductor of the Szczecin Philharmonic Orchestra.

The Muppet Christmas Carol - In Concert

Program Info:
Miles Goodman - The Muppet Christmas

Experience Charles Dickens’ classic holiday tale as only the Muppets can tell it. Kermit and the gang help Ebenezer Scrooge, played by actor Michale Caine, find redemption and his holiday spirit one fateful Christmas Eve. Join your St. Louis Symphony Orchestra as they perform the memorable score while this delightful family film plays on Stifel Theatre’s big screen.

A few things to know:

In 2023 The Guardian declared the film “not only the greatest Christmas film ever made, but also the best Muppet movie and among the most glorious of all Dickens adaptations.”
The original score was composed by Miles Goodman (“Dirty Rotten Scoundrels,” “Little Shop of Horrors”) with songs by Oscar®, Emmy® and Grammy®-winning songwriter Paul Williams (“Rainbow Connection,” “Evergreen”).
When Jim Henson offered the role of Ebenezer Scrooge to Michael Caine, he replied: "I'm going to play this movie like I'm working with the Royal Shakespeare Company. I will never wink, I will never do anything Muppety. I am going to play Scrooge as if it is an utterly dramatic role and there are no puppets around me.”

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Stadtheater Emmerich


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The Muppet Christmas Carol - In Concert
St. Louis Symphony Orchestra - Stifel Theatre


Program Info:
Miles Goodman - The Muppet Christmas

Experience Charles Dickens’ classic holiday tale as only the Muppets can tell it. Kermit and the gang help Ebenezer Scrooge, played by actor Michale Caine, find redemption and his holiday spirit one fateful Christmas Eve. Join your St. Louis Symphony Orchestra as they perform the memorable score while this delightful family film plays on Stifel Theatre’s big screen.

A few things to know:

In 2023 The Guardian declared the film “not only the greatest Christmas film ever made, but also the best Muppet movie and among the most glorious of all Dickens adaptations.”
The original score was composed by Miles Goodman (“Dirty Rotten Scoundrels,” “Little Shop of Horrors”) with songs by Oscar®, Emmy® and Grammy®-winning songwriter Paul Williams (“Rainbow Connection,” “Evergreen”).
When Jim Henson offered the role of Ebenezer Scrooge to Michael Caine, he replied: "I'm going to play this movie like I'm working with the Royal Shakespeare Company. I will never wink, I will never do anything Muppety. I am going to play Scrooge as if it is an utterly dramatic role and there are no puppets around me.”

Program Info:
Karel Svoboda - Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel

The original film with live orchestra
Who doesn't know the theme song of the Christmas classic “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella”? For over 50 years, the fairytale heroine has been riding dreamily on her gray horse Santa Claus through snow-covered landscapes, delighting generations of viewers.

Cinderella takes her fate into her own hands, fights for great happiness and shows the prince exactly where to go right from the first encounter in the forest. Since its first broadcast in 1973, the film fairytale with its snowy backdrop and wintry-romantic atmosphere has been an integral part of the Christmas program. Once again, the beautiful Cinderella and her prince can look forward to a very special stage: For several years now, “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella” has regularly sold out concert halls at Christmas time in German-speaking countries, whose podiums are transformed into the setting for the enchanting love story.

While the fairytale film unfolds on a large screen, the film soundtrack by Karel Svoboda is played live by a large symphony orchestra and synchronised scene by scene with the romantic and funny adventures. Shortly after the Cinderella soundtrack, Svoboda received his first orders from the West and his theme tunes for animated films such as “Maya the Bee”, “Wickie” and “Nils Holgersson” were created. But only the enchanting melody to which the princess races through the snow on her white horse can evoke such blissful feelings of happiness in the audience.

The original film with live orchestra
Can you solve this puzzle? “A little hat with feathers, a crossbow over his shoulder – but he’s not a hunter. A silver interwoven dress with a train to the ball – but she’s not a princess.” Guessed? Then you too are part of the huge fan base who can not only recite these sentences from the classic fairy tale “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella” by heart. There are now entire families who happily sit in front of the television at Christmas time and follow Cinderella on her ride through deep snow-covered forests - despite the ridicule of her pompous stepmother and stepsister, straight into the arms of the prince. For them, the Czech cult film from 1973 is as much a part of Christmas as candlelight and the smell of fresh pine needles. This year it can be seen again in the Nuremberg Meistersingerhalle in a brilliant cinema format.

Also included: Karel Svoboda's music, played live by a large live orchestra, synchronized scene by scene with the romantic and funny adventures on the big screen. Shortly after his Cinderella soundtrack, Svoboda received his first orders from the West, and his theme tunes for animated films such as “Maya the Bee”, “Wickie” and “Nils Holgersson” were created. But only the melody to which the princess races through the snow on her white horse can evoke such blissful feelings of happiness - hardly distinguishable from the anticipation of the festival...

Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel
21st Century Orchestra conducted by Ludwig Wicki - KKL


Program Info:
Karel Svoboda - Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel

For some, roasted almonds are a must at Christmas time, for others it has to be hazelnuts - exactly three pieces. The eyes of fairy tale fans should already light up, as these nuts are the three most important magic utensils in one of the most beautiful fairy tale films in the world. Since its cinema premiere in 1973 in what was then Czechoslovakia, “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella” has meanwhile been broadcast in over 50 countries around the globe and brings a little fairy-tale magic into our living room every year at Christmas time.

This winter, the beautiful Cinderella and her prince can look forward to a very special stage again: The KKL is transformed into the setting of the enchanting love story for a few hours. While the fairy tale film takes its course on the big screen, the film soundtrack by the Czech composer Karel Svoboda, played live by the 21st Century Orchestra, almost turns the audience into attendees of the court ball. And if you look very closely, you might even discover a delicate shoe on one of the steps ...

Program Info:
Karel Svoboda - Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel

The original film with live orchestra
Who doesn't know the theme song of the Christmas classic “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella” ? For over 50 years, the fairytale heroine has been riding dreamily on her gray horse Santa Claus through snow-covered landscapes, delighting generations of viewers. Cinderella takes her fate into her own hands, fights for great happiness and shows the prince exactly where to go right from the first encounter in the forest. Headstrong and with his heart in the right place - that's what defines the film to this day. Since its first broadcast in 1973, the light-hearted film fairy tale with its snowy backdrop and wintry-romantic atmosphere has been an integral part of the Christmas program. This cinematic Christmas miracle is due to strange circumstances: the original script called for Cinderella to run across “blooming meadows”; But because the film studios for the Czech-German co-production were already scheduled for the summer, the director left Václav Vorlíček simply moved the story to winter.

Once again, the beautiful Cinderella and her prince can look forward to a very special stage: For several years now, “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella” has regularly sold out concert halls at Christmas time in German-speaking countries, whose podiums are transformed into the setting for the enchanting love story. While the fairytale film plays on a large screen, the film soundtrack by Karel Svoboda is played live by the Prague Royal Philharmonic under the direction of Heiko Mathias Förster and synchronized scene by scene with the romantic and funny adventures. Shortly after the Cinderella soundtrack, Svoboda received his first orders from the West and his theme tunes for animated films such as “Maya the Bee”, “Wickie” and “Nils Holgersson” were created. But only the enchanting melody to which the princess races through the snow on her white horse can evoke such blissful feelings of happiness in the audience.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Saarlandhalle Saarbrücken


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The Lion King
Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator
Pearl Harbour
Interstellar

Program Info:
Karel Svoboda - Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel

The original film with live orchestra
Can you solve this puzzle? “A little hat with feathers, a crossbow over his shoulder – but he’s not a hunter. A silver interwoven dress with a train to the ball – but she’s not a princess.” Guessed? Then you too are part of the huge fan base who can not only recite these sentences from the classic fairy tale “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella” by heart. There are now entire families who happily sit in front of the television at Christmas time and follow Cinderella on her ride through deep snow-covered forests - despite the ridicule of her pompous stepmother and stepsister, straight into the arms of the prince. For them, the Czech cult film from 1973 is as much a part of Christmas as candlelight and the smell of fresh pine needles. This year it can be seen again in the Nuremberg Meistersingerhalle in a brilliant cinema format.

Also included: Karel Svoboda's music, played live by a large live orchestra, synchronized scene by scene with the romantic and funny adventures on the big screen. Shortly after his Cinderella soundtrack, Svoboda received his first orders from the West, and his theme tunes for animated films such as “Maya the Bee”, “Wickie” and “Nils Holgersson” were created. But only the melody to which the princess races through the snow on her white horse can evoke such blissful feelings of happiness - hardly distinguishable from the anticipation of the festival...

The film will be shown live with the Russian National Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Vladimir Spivakov.

“City Lights” is a famous silent film by Charlie Chaplin, shot in 1931, when directors had already begun working on sound films. In this film, Chaplin traditionally performed in several roles - as a screenwriter, director, leading actor, producer, choreographer and, for the first time, as a composer. The film still ranks first among the 10 best romantic comedies according to the American Film Institute.

The music for the film was orchestrated and arranged by Arthur Johnston and Alfred Newman, but Chaplin himself carefully analysed the score and made adjustments. “I needed graceful, romantic music that would contrast with the image of the tramp and give emotional depth to my comedies,” he said. “Music should not compete with me, but serve as a counterpoint to grace and charm in the film, expressing feelings...” (Charlie Chaplin).

“Chaplin is a great poet who deeply penetrated into the essence of human nature,” says Vladimir Spivakov. – He appeals to the best sides of our soul. He was a man who understood well that we are all on the edge of an abyss and that human life is a memory of one fleeting day spent as a guest. Chaplin showed us the fragility of human life... He showed us that we need to believe and hope and that real feeling can overcome many things.”

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Rheingoldhalle Mainz


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

Once again, the beautiful Cinderella and her prince can look forward to a very special stage: For several years now, “Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella” has regularly sold out concert halls at Christmas time in German-speaking countries, whose podiums are transformed into the setting for the enchanting love story.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Eurogress Aachen


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Volkswagenhalle


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The James Bond Concert Retreat
Q The Music Show conducted by Warren Ringham - Pinewood Hotel


Program Info:
The idea is to come and share a weekend with the band in a more up close, highly social & interative, informal and personal setting. You can come on stage when we are playing – stand in amongst the band while we play, ask questions and we’ll explain how we bring it all together, we’ll be performing a very special set list (see below) with special cues as well as some of the core main themes - watch us put it together and then perform it for you.

We’ll also have our (simple to use) tech monitoring setups for you to try - Use our in-ear systems to listen in and isolate individual instruments. Want to listen to the Bass? No problem. Want to listen to Piano? No problem - make your own mix and see how the elements make up the Q The Music Sound.

As part of the day there is a Q&A where you can ask the band all your questions, and during the evening there is a 3-course dinner, where band members sit at each table.

It really is an amazing experience – the 2024 retreat was a sell out and a runaway success, with 100% incredible feedback, so the 2025 is on sale now!

You can get several different ticket options: Performance only, performance & dinner, performance, dinner and overnight accommodation.


Here are some quotes from last year:

“A perfect weekend. To be on stage watching them is something you never get to do. It was a must do experience, can’t recommend it highly enough!”

“Having seen Q The Music lots including the West End and 02, I can say the retreat immersive event was an amazing experience. To stand with the brass while they were playing and chat to everyone was another level and I can’t wait for the next one.”

“Three words from the retreat for me: laughter, love and family. If you can get yourself to the retreat, do it, as it’s the best time you’ll have”

“The retreat was something completely out of this world. What made it so special was the up close and personal experience. If you get the chance to go – do it, you won’t be disappointed”

“I’m still on a buzz from the retreat! An amazing experience”

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Theater am Potzdammer Platz


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The Music of Game of Thrones & House of Dragon
Czech Symphonie Orchestra conducted by Franz Bader - Meistersingerhalle, Großer Saal


Program Info:
Image for the event
Dramatic drum roll, dark cello sounds, oriental-tinged melodies – the music for the “Game of Thrones” series is as complex as its plot and characters. The soundtrack by the German-Iranian Ramin Djawadi underlines everything that made the television series a global success: the fight between good and evil, feelings between love and hate and the dark obsession of the main characters.

The concert evening “The Music of Game of Thrones” is entirely dedicated to the music of the series. Under the musical direction of Franz Bader, the 50 musicians of the Czech Symphony Orchestra, a choir and the vocal soloist Franziska Bader interpret the seemingly endless variations of the soundtrack. A spectacular light show provides the visual accompaniment.
The monumental orchestral work develops its own dynamic and overwhelms the listener. A musical evening as gripping as the series itself.

While the Dresden Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Benjamin Pope, plays the impressive soundtrack live, the film will be shown in full length on a large screen.

The second, even more powerful Death Star, which is to seal the final downfall of the rebels, is nearing completion. The rebels unite their forces on the moon of Endor to fight from there against the Empire and thus the dark side of the Force. Meanwhile, Luke returns to the remote planet of Dagobah to complete his Jedi Knight training with Master Yoda. He learns from him that he must face his father, Darth Vader, one last time. As the attack on the Death Star begins, the lightsaber duel between father and son resumes. Dresden Philharmonic Orchestra

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Stadthalle Neuss


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Excerpt from the musical program:
The Lion King
Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator
Pearl Harbour
Interstellar
The Dark Knight
Dunkirk
Inception
Earth
Da Vinci Code
Man of Steel

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Congress-Union Celle


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - CC Weimarhalle


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - myticket Jahrhunderthalle Frankfurt


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Program Info:

Fabio Luisi, conductor
Leonidas Kavakos, violin

A child prodigy in Vienna, Erich Korngold had published dozens of works by the time he was 25. As the Nazis threatened Europe, Korngold accepted an invitation from motion picture director Max Reinhardt to create the music for A Midsummer Night’s Dream—the beginning of an Oscar-winning career that would help shape the golden age of Hollywood. In his Violin Concerto you can hear themes and melodies from his scores for Another Dawn, Anthony Adverse, and The Prince and the Pauper. Hear this dramatic work performed by a violinist who “ranks among the greatest instrumentalists of our time” (Seattle Times), Leonidas Kavakos.

Closing this beautiful program is Brahms’s Fourth Symphony, a brilliant study in contrasts from dark mystery to sunlit joy. From its sweetly sad opening to its swirling flourish of a finale, this dynamic masterwork leaves the listener breathless.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Max-Reger-Halle


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Festhalle Pirmasens


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Casino Royale - In Concert
St. Louis Symphony Orchestra - Stifel Theatre


Program Info:
David Arnold - Casino Royale

Get ready for a night of action and suspense as the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra presents Casino Royale in concert. Immerse yourself in the world of James Bond with Daniel Craig in his debut as 007 and David Arnold's gripping score performed live. In the film, Bond is on assignment to play against a private banker funding terrorists in a high-stakes poker game at the Casino Royale in Montenegro. This cinematic and musical journey will leave you shaken…not stirred.

A few things to know:

Award-winning composer David Arnold skillfully integrates the classic Bond theme into the movie’s score in a subtle and unique way, avoiding using the full theme until the end of the film, symbolizing Bond’s full transformation into the agent known from earlier films.
Arnold’s credits include scoring five James Bond films, as well as Independence Day (1996), Godzilla (1998), and the television series Little Britain, Sherlock, and Good Omens.
Casino Royale is an adaptation of Ian Fleming's very first James Bond novel, published in 1953. This adaptation stayed closer to the original plot of the book compared to previous Bond films, which often took more creative liberties. The decision to follow Fleming's original story more closely was part of the broader effort to reboot the franchise with a more realistic and grounded portrayal of the character

No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The Sound of Hans Zimmer & John Williams
Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Chuhei Iwasaki - Gewandhaus


Program Info:
Whether in distant universes, mystical magical worlds or dark pirate coves: When the tension in the cinema crackles, gripping hero's journeys move even die-hard film fans to tears and give them a pleasant tingling sensation, the soundtrack plays the main role. Only the breathtaking film music breathes life into the images and draws the viewer into captivating fantasy worlds. To release the truly profound, gripping emotions through whose magic classic films and their heroes become immortal, even the most brilliant lighting play is not enough. Conversely, legendary theme tunes unfold dream images of nostalgic memories, familiar feelings and goosebumps moments even without a screen - across generations.

Only masterful sound wizards like Hans Zimmer and John Williams manage to make such unforgettable soundtracks transcend the films. For the Hollywood dream factory, the music creators created hundreds of internationally known soundtracks, won awards - from Oscars to Emmys - as diverse as their entire work and achieved legendary status during their lifetime.

At the film music concert “The Sound of Hans Zimmer & John Williams” the audience can experience the musical highlights of the two composers live. After the great successes of recent years, poignant melodies from “The Lion King”, “Star Wars”, “Harry Potter” and “Pirates of the Caribbean” complement each other with further film music highlights to form a new program - brought symphonic to life by the Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra. A concert evening with head cinema and truly excellent listening experiences that not only unites film fans!

While the audience follows on a large screen as Harry masters his adventurous first school year at Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft, as he runs through eerie corridors and moving stairs or competes in Quidditch tournaments on a magic broom, the live sounds of the NOrchestra ensure Westphalia for strong emotions: For the original film, the complete score of John Williams' legendary film music is brought to life in all its drama.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Laeiszhalle Hamburg, Großer Saal


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Theater der Stadt Marl


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

While the audience follows on a large screen as Harry masters his adventurous first school year at Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft, as he runs through eerie corridors and moving stairs or competes in Quidditch tournaments on a magic broom, the live sounds of the NOrchestra ensure Westphalia for strong emotions: For the original film, the complete score of John Williams' legendary film music is brought to life in all its drama.

The movie with a large live orchestra

"You're a wizard, Harry." It is the orphan's eleventh birthday when the giant Hagrid utters the sentence that will turn Harry Potter's life upside down. Because the delicate boy with the round wire-rimmed glasses and the lightning-shaped scar on his forehead is not just any wizard: he alone is said to have the ability to break the power of the dark magician Voldemort.

"You're a wizard, Harry." It is the orphan's eleventh birthday when the giant Hagrid utters the sentence that will turn Harry Potter's life upside down. Because the delicate boy with the round wire-rimmed glasses and the lightning-shaped scar on his forehead is not just any wizard: he alone is said to have the ability to break the power of the dark magician Voldemort.

The very successful novels not only captivated an entire generation worldwide, but also made millions of hearts beat faster in the cinema as an eight-part Hollywood blockbuster. Now the first part of the film saga “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” – one of the greatest cinema successes of our time – can be experienced on the big screen and with orchestral accompaniment. A live experience in a class of its own!

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Westfalenhalle / Halle 2


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Liederhalle Segelsaal


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

Gil Shaham Returns
Baltimore Symphony Orchestra conducted by Eva Ollikainen - Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall


Program Info:
Gil Shaham, violin

SOFIA GUBAIDULINA - Fairytale Poem

ERICH WOLFGANG KORNGOLD - Violin Concerto, op. 35 in D major, the concerto has themes from the scores for the movies ANOTHER DAWN (1937), ANTHONY ADVERSE (1936) & THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937)

IGOR STRAVINSKY - Petrushka (1911)

A masterclass in musical storytelling, Stravinsky’s Petrushka mined Russian folk music to imagine the rich inner lives of dancing puppets. Soviet composer Sofia Gubaidulina crafted her own pointed fable about a piece of chalk that dwindles away in mindless busywork until it is liberated by a creative child, while leading opera and film composer Erich Korngold poured all of his dramatic gifts into his soaringly lyrical Violin Concerto. Award-winning violinist Gil Shaham uses his uniquely warm and poetic tone to kindle the Concerto’s “Old World” romantic sensibility.

The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

Gil Shaham Returns
Baltimore Symphony Orchestra conducted by Eva Ollikainen - Music Center at Strathmore


Program Info:
Gil Shaham, violin

SOFIA GUBAIDULINA - Fairytale Poem

ERICH WOLFGANG KORNGOLD - Violin Concerto, op. 35 in D major, the concerto has themes from the scores for the movies ANOTHER DAWN (1937), ANTHONY ADVERSE (1936) & THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER (1937)

IGOR STRAVINSKY - Petrushka (1911)

A masterclass in musical storytelling, Stravinsky’s Petrushka mined Russian folk music to imagine the rich inner lives of dancing puppets. Soviet composer Sofia Gubaidulina crafted her own pointed fable about a piece of chalk that dwindles away in mindless busywork until it is liberated by a creative child, while leading opera and film composer Erich Korngold poured all of his dramatic gifts into his soaringly lyrical Violin Concerto. Award-winning violinist Gil Shaham uses his uniquely warm and poetic tone to kindle the Concerto’s “Old World” romantic sensibility.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Cirkus Krone Bau


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The music of Hans Zimmer & Others
Orchestra - Congress - Saal Tirol


Program Info:
No other composer has influenced the film world in the past two decades as much as the Oscar, Globe and Emmy winner Hans Zimmer with his staggering compositions for films such as The Lion King, Pirates of the Carribean, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception and Interstellar. The visitors may expect a magnificant musical evening with a symphonic orchestra, choir, soloists, a lightshow and selected film excerpts.

Hans Zimmer became famous with his score for “Rain Man” and since then has helped to leverage numerous Hollywood mega-hits to success and dramatic-emotional impact. For the film score for Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” Hans Zimmer received his eleventh Oscar nomination in 2018.

The audience will also learn about interesting background stories, such as how Hans Zimmer completely altered the beginning of Gladiator with Ridley Scott and smuggled a message against apartheid in the song text for Lion King in the native language and told the big Disney corporation that it was about butterflies. Hans Zimmer often named Ennio Morricone as his idol and role-model, whose repertoire will be feautured with excerpts from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” and “Once Upon a Time in America”.

Zimmer followed Morricones example of composing the film music before instead of after filming and shaped the entire work. For example he changed the beginning of Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator”, subsequently the world-famous director moved into the studio of Hans Zimmer, who is an artist with a social conscience and who also composed a song for the victims of the Batman cinema shooting in Aurora, as well as music against climate change – all of which will be heard in the program.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” will be performed by the Hollywood Symphonic Orchestra and Choir, as well as soprano Johanna Krumin, who will perform Gladiator and Ennio Morricone’s “Ecstasy of Gold” – in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Starsoloists from Broadway will perform excerpts from The Lin King, Zimmers most recent boxoffice-smash-hit.

“The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others – A Celebration of Filmmusic” is an unforgettable audiovisual event for all age groups, film enthusiasts, music lovers and families.

The Lion King
Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator
Pearl Harbour
Interstellar

Surreal, sprawling, and operatic, Fritz Lang’s 1927 science-fiction silent film depicts a world in which the privileged live in luxury on the surface, while deep in the bowels of the city an unseen underclass labors on machinery that supports the Metropolis.
