Hans Zimmer: Live in Prague

I visited this concert in O2 arena in Prague in May 2016 and it was magnificent experience. There was an amazing atmosphere throughout the concert, high quality of sound, breathtaking light effects and perfect musicians, of course. So, it was extraordinary experience, which I will never forget. The music documentary is a very good memory for this fantastic moment and shows very nice details from this concert.

Hans Zimmer stands in my top three list of favorite composers of all time, the other two being Thomas Newman and John Williams. To hear and watch this on Blu-ray is simply a feast for ears and eyes. being a drummer myself, I have great respect for any kind of music style and instrument, but Satnam Ramgotra always leaves me wanting for more... This is a must have for film music fans..

Whew what a journey! Thank you Hans & Company. Hope to experience you all in the future without my TV in the way. That was simply something else.

Zimmer was born with an enormous gift. His music encompasses sublime beautify and enormous power and heft. He creates haunting themes and powerful orchestrations across a wide swath of instrumentation, from Classics to Rock, and beyond. If possible, listen to his music on a full hi-fi system...portable devices cannot convey the emotional impact. I hesitate to apply the word 'genius' in music but Zimmer deserves it - he is self taught.

(For those interested - the drummer's name is Satnam Singh Ramgotra. He isn't listed in the IMDb credits, for some strange reason. )

While I never got the chance to watch this performance live, I bought the Blu-Ray and played it back on my own home theater which compromises of SVS Ultra speakers and subwoofers.

On to the performance, it's simply an exhilarating thrill of pure music - played by a multitude of musicians who IMO simply doesn't get enough credit. Everyone played their part to near perfection, everyone was a specialist in their own way. There was no sense of races, no sense of religion, it was simply music and music at its very best.

There isn't much to say other than watch this concert on a system that is capable of bringing your roof down. This concert deserves that much attention to really feel its immense energy.
