Whether in distant universes, mystical magical worlds or Caribbean pirate hideouts: When the tension rises in the cinema, when daring heroes venture into the unknown, when even hardened film buffs are on the edge of their seat or moved to tears, the soundtrack plays the leading role. It’s only the gripping film score that breathes life into the images, drawing the audience into immersive fantasy worlds. Even the most amazing cinematography will not elicit the deep-seated, gripping emotions that make film classics and their heroes immortal. Conversely, legendary title tunes conjure up images, memories, emotions, even without a silver screen – and that across all generations.
It takes such masterful magicians of music as Hans Zimmer and John Williams to create scores that transcend their films. Having created hundreds of internationally known soundtracks for the dream factory Hollywood, these two composers have won awards as diverse as their oeuvre – from Oscars to Emmys – and have become legends in their lifetime.
