Hans Zimmer
Hans Zimmer is the most influential film composer of his generation — the sound of Gladiator, Inception, Interstellar and Dune. Experience his music live in concert.
Born in Frankfurt in 1957, Hans Zimmer reinvented the film score by fusing orchestra with electronics and pulse. Across The Lion King, Gladiator, The Dark Knight, Inception, Interstellar, Dune and the Pirates of the Caribbean films, he built a sound that is at once vast and intimate — driving ostinatos, towering brass, and themes that lodge in the memory for life. A two-time Academy Award winner, Zimmer has become a rare composer who fills arenas. Heard live, the low-end power and slow-building intensity of his music are unmistakable.
