Zimmer will be joined onstage by his band and the Odessa Opera Orchestra & Friends, performing numerous works from Zimmer’s vast and successful catalogue of film music. This will include pieces from the likes of The Lion King, Gladiator, Pirates of the Caribbean, Interstellar, The Dark Knight, The Last Samurai, and Dune.

According to NME, Zimmer expressed his enthusiasm for the upcoming tour in a statement, saying: “I’m thrilled to return to the stage for another tour in Europe and excited to share this phenomenal show that the band and I are preparing for…I’m grateful to be able to play our music that brings together so many people for a truly unforgettable experience.”

The composer’s last performance in the United Kingdom took place in March, when he appeared with Ukraine’s Odessa Opera Orchestra at the O2 Arena in London. Zimmer commenced the performance with a stirring tribute to the people of Ukraine, saying: “When COVID stopped us from coming here 885 days ago, we booked our orchestra from the Ukraine, from Odessa, and we only managed to get 10 people out… So just welcome them…” he said before he introduced the orchestra, to a standing ovation… of the things which I thought was remarkable about the people that we did bring back out of the Ukraine, that were left behind from the orchestra, it was a lot of women. They taught me who the real wonder women are and so I would like to celebrate them with this little ditty called Wonder Woman.”
