![]() ![]() ![]() Night Shyamalan, Howard walked to his piano where he explained the main theme of Signs before starting the M. While talking about his relationship with director M. The suite of Pan started with a subtle women’s choir supported by the orchestra building up towards a grander end together. I recognized the familiar opening music, but what came right after it sounded new to me, with action music and a delicate soprano solo, ending with another goosebumps moment during the suite’s finale with “Horn of Plenty.” It was accompanied by corresponding images from different movies on the screen. The next suite was from The Hunger Games movies. Some were exclusively dedicated to one movie, while others, like the one we just heard, combined tunes from several soundtracks. ![]() The music of the evening was divided into suites. The suite was a solid start of the evening, and when it was over, Howard took the microphone to welcome the audience. Halfway through, the music was played in sync with a piece of dialogue on the screen and ended gloriously. The piece turned out to be a suite of a couple of cues from that movie. That piece went straight into the fantastic horn solo that starts off Snow White and the Huntsman, which gave me goosebumps straight away. This faded into applause when James Newton Howard entered the stage and made the soothing sound transition into “Main Titles” from Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. When his European tour was announced more than a year ago, I was thrilled and bought tickets for the concert in Antwerp, Belgium almost immediately.Īs soon as I entered the venue, I saw that this concert would be different from the ones by the other two Hollywood composers: the stage was very simple with only chairs and a screen behind them while a soothing sound was coming from the speakers. With this development in mind, it comes as no surprise, that James Newton Howard is also looking for his chance to shine on the big stage with a tour of his own. Both shows were produced very professionally, with special stages, visuals on screens, lighting effects, and in Djawadi’s case: fire. Hans Zimmer has also been performing his live show and has just released his show on DVD and Blu-ray. Ramin Djawadi toured North America with the Game of Thrones Live Experience and will soon start another tour which will also include Europe. It has become a trend for famous Hollywood composers to go on a tour. ![]()
