The greatest soundtracks in film history will be performed live by the Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra & Choir, featuring over 100 performers.
Featuring music from blockbusters such as “Star Wars,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “Harry Potter,” “Interstellar,” “Indiana Jones,” “The Dark Knight,” “Schindler’s List,” “The Rock,” and others.
Hans Zimmer has achieved something incredible: The German composer worked behind the scenes in Hollywood for decades, was barely visible to the general public—and yet is now as famous as a rock star. His outstanding soundtracks helped turn many films into blockbusters: from “The Lion King” to “Gladiator” to “Interstellar” and “Dune.”
Only one other living film composer is as famous as he is: the great John Williams. The American has been nominated for an Oscar an incredible 54 times—winning the award five times—and there is probably no more famous melody in the entire history of film than his “Star Wars” fanfare. These two composers have created a wealth of brilliant music that everyone knows, music that evokes nostalgic memories in moviegoers—and that stirs powerful emotions even without moving images.
So it’s no wonder that “The Sound of Hans Zimmer & John Williams” has been a crowd-pleaser for years and consistently sells out venues throughout the German-speaking world. Now the project is entering its next phase with a new program—featuring fresh musical highlights, the power of the orchestra, and nostalgic mental imagery that brings film history to life through sound.
Subject to change.
