The Magical Music of Harry Potter — Live in Concert

The Harry Potter films are some of the most successful films in the history of cinema. At this unique concert evening, a special guest from the films, star soloists, a choir, and a film music orchestra will bring the magical music of Harry Potter to life. The program includes music from the film soundtracks of five-time Oscar winner John Williams, Patrick Doyle, Nicolas Hooper, and Oscar winner Alexandre Desplat, as well as the best music from “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child,“ which has received many awards in London and New York.
The event presents a musical journey into a magical world with friendship, adventure, love, and cohesion in the dangerous world of magicians. Visitors can expect to be immersed into a world of enchantment through the most advanced technology of light, sound, and laser staging, as well as a unique sound dimension that is guaranteed to leave them with goosebumps. The audience will experience the musically best from all eight films and musical works written by four talented composers. Williams composed the music for the first three films, like the famous “Hedwig’s Theme,” the leitmotif of the Harry Potter films; “Double Trouble”—the classic Hogwarts motif with a children’s choir; as well as the funny “Aunt Marge's Waltz” and “Witches, Wands and Wizards.” Titles like the “Hogwarts Hymn” by Doyle, from the fourth Harry Potter film, will bring the audience into the mysterious and dark world of the Triwizard Tournament. Hooper composed “Dumbledore's Farewell” for the fifth and sixth Harry Potter film. He helped to shape and mature the Harry Potter music. Finally, Desplat, who composed the music for the last two works of the film series, has created a grandiose and unforgettable final musical experience—not only with “Lily’s Theme”.
Tickets are CHF 69.40-119.40 for adults and CHF 60.40-110.40 for youths and students.
