Life on Our Planet in Concert
National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Stefan Geiger - National Concert Hall
Program Info: Lorne Balfe - Life on Our Planet
The National Symphony Orchestra proudly partners with esk film, in association with Netflix and Silverback Films, to present Life on Our Planet in Concert. A new natural history immersive concert experience, presenting the highlights from across the series on a big screen at the National Concert Hall with Lorne Balfe’s dramatic soundtrack performed live to picture, it will be conducted by Stefan Geiger.
Life on Our Planet is a ground-breaking new 8-part series created by Silverback Films in association with Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Television. Narrated by Academy Award®-winner Morgan Freeman, it’s the story of life’s epic battle to conquer and survive on planet Earth. Accompanied by the National Symphony Orchestra at the National Concert Hall, audiences will see the story of life unfold through its most pivotal moments - from the first single-celled life form to the first animals to move out from the sea and onto land, to the first creatures to take flight.
Silverback Films explains: “Organised around the five mass extinctions that have shaped the planet - plus the sixth that we are facing today - the series brings creatures known only from fossils to life in dramatic, photo-real fashion. These stunning scenes are presented alongside cutting-edge natural history sequences, showcasing the unique evolutionary advantages modern species have inherited from their ancestors in ways that have never been seen before.
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 life to understand what is happening to our world and what is needed to put it right. But whatever future awaits, the past reminds us that life has always found a way.”
