Zimmer & Beyond on Strings

Lying Down concert in the old post office of Utrecht
Concert duration +/- 60 minutes (without intermission)

The music of Hans Zimmer and other film composers has been touching millions of people for years. From grand soundtracks to intimate melodies — this music lingers and immediately evokes images and emotions. During this lying-down concert, that world takes on a new form.

A unique performance by a string quartet
During this concert, cinematic compositions by Hans Zimmer and others are performed by a string quartet, right in the middle of the room. The pieces have been rearranged especially for this setting. Familiar themes thus take on a different charge: softer, more intimate, and closer. The power of the original music remains, but the experience changes.

Cinematic sounds, experienced up close
The musicians of Mirabeau Strings bring this music to life with their refined interplay and sense of detail. Recognizable melodies fill the space and take on a warm, layered sound thanks to the strings. Lying beneath the parabolic roof of this unique location, an atmosphere is created in which the music is given ample room to enter. An evening to pause for a moment.

Whether you are a film music enthusiast or simply in the mood for a special night out: this Stellae lying-down concert offers a unique way to experience this music. Let yourself be carried away by cinematic sounds, slow down, and enjoy a moment where everything comes together.
