“I have a sort of ambigious opinion when it comes to Hans Zimmer. He seems a little arrogant in interviews and has created something of a recognizable u0026#39;Hans Zimmer soundu0026#39;, especially in the 90s with his scores of Crimson Tide, The Rock and the sorts. I didnu0026#39;t think he was that versatile and quite often I thought he composed some rather uninspired scores.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBut then I watched this performance on bluray on a good sound system… and was blown away.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhen you compare the ethereal soundtrack of Gladiator to the spiritful Lion King, to the tearjerking Chevaliers of Sangreal or to the almost brutal Dark Knight you canu0026#39;t help but marvel at the sheer emotional power these pieces develop.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe musicians are all top notch and seem to be having fun on stage. Zimmer also has lots of nice words to say about everybody and doesnu0026#39;t seem arrogant at all. Heu0026#39;s just a musician in his element.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe performance is nicely captured and the sound quality is simply breathtaking.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSee this if youu0026#39;re a lover of powerful, emotional music and like watching great musicians at work!”
