Ladies and Gentlemen: let's speak about film music

… and let's start with one of my favourites: main theme from 'Gladiator', by Hans Zimmer. The film was released in 2000 and won 5 Oscars out of 12 nominations, including Best Film, Best Actor (Russell Crowe) and Best Sound.

   Hans Zimmer is a German composer specialised in mixing classical orchestral arrangements with electronic and synthetic sounds. He is one of the most important Hollywood composers, responsible for soundtracks as award-winning 'The Lion King', 'Gladiator', 'The thin red line', '12 years a slave' and 'Pirates of the Caribbean'.



And don't miss this really interesting interview with the composer broadcasted on BBC:
