Music, according to Hans Zimmer, is 50% of a movie. It gives films a sense of rhythm—a flow—and scenes from our favourite films have been amplified by music and the fantastic, the surreal and the wonder elevated to extremes. You can relive many of these moments at Candlelight: Best of Hans Zimmer and experience the music of one of film history’s most prolific composers.
And not just prolific, but award-winning as well. The German film composer has two Oscars for The Lion King and Dune, and then there are all the compositions that have not won an award but stolen their way into our hearts.

Get your tickets to experience some of film’s most memorable songs at Candlelight.
Music pulls us in and has us feeling all the feels: the highs become more ecstatic, the lows more emotional and the drama becomes all too much. Be prepared to be drawn into a dreamy candlelit evening of Hans Zimmer’s Best Works.
The setlist for Candlelight: Best of Hans Zimmer includes songs from movies such as Inception, The Dark Knight, The Lion King and Pearl Harbor. Audiences will be able to relive memorable on-screen moments like the corn-field chase in Interstellar and Zooster’s Breakout in Madagascar while Pirates of the Caribbean and Gladiator make appearances with medleys. Keep in mind, however, that programs are subject to change.
These treasured soundtracks will be performed by Rosa Kvartetten string quartet.
If you’re a fan of anime, then you can’t pass up on an enchanting Candlelight concert featuring the Best of Joe Hisaishi on Wednesday 28 September. The eight-time winner of the Japanese Academy Award for Best Music is best known for being the musical genius behind the majority of Studio Ghibli’s soundtracks. That’s films like Porco Rosso, Laputa: Castle in the Sky, Kiki’s Delivery Service, Howl’s Moving Castle, My Neighbour Totoro, Ponyo and Spirited Away.
Make a night of Candlelight and get drinks and dinner before or after the stunning concert—just like you would if you were going out for a night at the movies.
