Hans Zimmer

Winner of two Academy Awards, four Grammy Awards and three Emmy nominations, Hans Zimmer is the name that revolutionized film music. Combining electronic sounds with classical orchestrations, he created soundtracks that defined generations.

From his debut in the music industry and early collaborations with Stanley Myers, to his recognition with Rain Man (1988) and The Lion King (1994), Zimmer has transformed each score into a work of art. Films such as The Dark Knight, Dune, Dunkirk or Man of Steel bear the composer’s unmistakable mark and his unique sound continues to inspire filmmakers and musicians around the world.

La Chapelle Sauvage

Created out of a desire to explore new sonic horizons, the La Chapelle Sauvage orchestra combines classical perfection with a modern vision of musical interpretation. Originally formed as an ensemble of talented young musicians under the guidance of conductor Karel De Wilde, the orchestra quickly conquered international stages, standing out for the versatility and emotional depth of each concert.

A bold approach, a perfect balance between impeccable technique and pure passion – this is the musical signature of La Chapelle Sauvage. With a vast repertoire, ranging from chamber music to grandiose symphonic works, the orchestra frequently collaborates with international soloists and choirs, offering the audience unique artistic experiences.
