The greatest soundtracks in film history are played live by the Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra & Choir with over 100 performers.
With 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 have contributed to many films becoming blockbusters: from »The Lion King« to »Gladiator« to »Interstellar« and »Dune«.
Only one living film composer is as famous as he is: the great John Williams. The US-American was nominated for an incredible 54 Oscars – and won the award five times – and there is probably no more famous melody in film history than his fanfare for »Star Wars«. These two composers have written a lot of brilliant music that everyone knows, that triggers nostalgic memories in film viewers – and that creates strong emotions even without moving images.
So it's no wonder that »The Sound of Hans Zimmer & John Williams« has been a crowd puller for years and has sold out concert halls in German-speaking countries. In November 2026, the project will enter the next round with a new programme – featuring new musical highlights, orchestral sound power and nostalgic head cinema that makes film history audible.
