Berlin / Los Angeles - "The Music of Hans Zimmer & Others" is an unforgettable concert and audiovisual experience for all ages, movie buffs, music lovers and families. The music will be performed by the Hollywood Film Orchestra in an impressive show with light installations, laser projections and selected film clips. Star soloists from the original Broadway production will perform excerpts from "The Lion King", Zimmer's most popular box office hit.
No other composer has had such an impact on the film world over the last two decades as Oscar, Globe and Emmy award-winning composer Hans Zimmer with his breathtaking compositions for films such as "James Bond", "The Lion King", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Gladiator", "The Dark Knight", "Man of Steel", "Inception" and "Interstellar".
Acclaimed German composer Hans Zimmer, who has written the soundtracks to more than 200 films, won his second Oscar for "Dune" (2022) after receiving his first Academy Award for "The Lion King" (1994).
Hans Zimmer described Ennio Morricone as his idol and role model, from whose repertoire excerpts from "Two Glorious Scoundrels" and "Play Me the Song of Death" will be heard. Zimmer followed Morricone's example of composing the film music before - rather than after - filming and shaped the entire work. For example, he changed the opening of Ridley Scott's "Gladiator", whereupon the world-famous director moved into Hans Zimmer's studio.
