Enjoy the soundtracks of Dune, Intersellar, The Dark Knight by 'wizard' Hans Zimmer in Ho Chi Minh City

On this occasion, the audience has the opportunity to look back at Hans Zimmer's massive career, two Oscars, three Golden Globes, five Grammys and a series of unforgettable marks spanning from The Lion King, Gladiator, Inception, Interstellar to The Dark Knight and Pirates of the Caribbean - Photo: BTC

In a specially designed stage space, nearly 80 artists from the Concert of Childhood Memory symphony orchestra, the Classonic band and the Choir recreated 20 outstanding works by the great composer Hans Zimmer .

The audience seats were full with many young movie lovers, along with many foreign audiences living and working in Vietnam attending.

That's not surprising, because Hans Zimmer has long been an immortal icon, contributing to shaping contemporary film music .

Immerse yourself in the magic of Hans Zimmer

The show began with the powerful melody of Wonder Woman, carrying the epic spirit, both heroic and mysterious of the Amazon warrior.

The ability to coordinate between strings and percussion makes the space move, the moment the audience hears that cinematic tone is like "pulling the curtain" to take everyone on an adventure.

The crowd really erupted when the orchestra moved on to Paul's Dream - the theme song of the character Paul Atreides in Dune .

This is also the work that most clearly demonstrates Hans Zimmer's "unlimited" spirit.

With Dune , Hans Zimmer did not follow the familiar symphonic model of Star Wars . He actively sought "extraterrestrial" sounds, combining traditional instruments, electronics and even self-generated samples to create a completely new musical language.

Dune 's most distinctive element - the "alien" language chants created by Zimmer - is powerfully expressed through Thanh Tu's lead vocals.

The mood then turns chilly with Like a Dog Chasing Cars from The Dark Knight , which depicts a tense Gotham before the chaos caused by the Joker.

The name Like a Dog Chasing Cars suggests both helplessness and a strong will: chasing something that seems impossible, but still rushing in without hesitation.

Of course, it's impossible to talk about Hans Zimmer's music without mentioning two classics, Inception and Intersellar .

In the middle of the show, songs from Inception and Interstellar were considered the "soul" of the whole concert - Photo: BTC

With Inception , the piece Time once again proves its vitality. With just a few simple but sustained piano notes, combined with cello and strings, Time takes the listener on an emotional whirlwind about the concept of time - starting light, passing through chaos and ending in silence.

Interstellar , with its Gothic tones and contemplative music, conveys a light, fragile yet strong feeling like the love between a father and a child.

It was this music that created an unforgettable scene in the masterpiece Interstellar .

One of the most exciting moments was when the familiar tune from Pirates of the Caribbean played. The applause came almost immediately.

With the support of powerful brass and a monumental climax, Hans Zimmer creates a score of immense intensity.

The melody rises and falls like waves as the pitch continuously rises and falls - making the audience feel like they are on an adventure with the Black Pearl ship on a thousand-mile sea adventure.

The show ended with a special gift - a promise to open the next journey of the Concert of Childhood Memory symphony orchestra .

Although the writer will keep the details a secret to keep the audience in complete surprise, the hint comes from the message of "foolish people dare to dream".

In addition to the show on November 14, Classonic in Concert #2: To The Line will have two more shows on November 15 and 16.

Mr. La Tuan Cuong, head of the organizing committee, also shared after the program:

“The reception from the audience in Hanoi was a great surprise and happiness for the entire crew. We did not expect that after only one year of launching, the music project Classonic would receive so much love, which is a great source of motivation for us to continue expanding our journey in Ho Chi Minh City.

We hope that each music night will not only stop at an entertainment event, but will become a vivid cinematic art experience, where music, images and emotions blend into a complete story."
