At the film music spectacle “The Sound of Hans Zimmer & John Williams” the audience can experience the musical highlights of the two composers live.
Moving melodies from Star Wars, Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter, Dune, Jurassic Park, Gladiator, Indiana Jones, Inception, and many more come together – following the major successes of recent years – in a new program of cinematic masterpieces, brought to life symphonically by a full symphony orchestra with choir. An evening of musical cinema for the mind and truly outstanding listening experiences that brings together not only film fans!
The greatest soundtracks in film history – performed live by a symphony orchestra
Whether in distant galaxies, mystical worlds of magic, or dark pirate coves – when cinematic tension crackles, heroic journeys move even the most hardened film fans to tears and send shivers down the spine, it's the soundtrack that takes center stage. Only breathtaking film music breathes life into the images and draws viewers, lost in the moment, into captivating fantasy worlds. To truly unlock the deep, gripping emotions that immortalize classic films and their heroes, even the most brilliant visuals aren’t enough. Conversely, legendary theme melodies conjure dreamlike images, nostalgic memories, familiar feelings, and goosebumps – even without a screen, and across generations.
Only masterful sound wizards like Hans Zimmer and John Williams succeed in creating unforgettable scores that transcend the films themselves. For Hollywood’s dream factory, these musical creators have composed hundreds of internationally renowned soundtracks, earned awards as diverse as their works – from Oscars to Emmys – and achieved legendary status in their lifetimes.
