We Can Be Heroes
After two rounds of game music in SCORE, and the science fiction/fantasy concert FAR AND AWAY, Berwaldhallen presents another collaboration with Orvar Säfström and Underscore Productions. Heroes come in many different forms and in this whole new concert production we meet Batman, Thor, Wonder Woman and the multifaceted Furiosa in Mad Max: Fury Road. We battle side by side with Katniss in The Hunger Games and save the world from falling apart with Sarah Connor in Terminator 2. To this we add John Williams compositions from Raiders Of The Lost Ark and Star Wars – The Force Awakens. The concert ends with Hans Zimmer’s iconic music from Gladiator. As in the previous concerts, Sabina Zweiacker is a soloist and British Charles Hazlewood conductor.
