The Music of “The Lord of the Rings.” Tribute to Howard Shore
Martinskirche
Saturday, 03 October
19:15-20:15
Experience the majestic and timeless music of the legendary “Lord of the Rings” films in a unique concert performance that leads audiences into the heart of Tolkien’s universe. This vibrant musical journey unfolds through the mesmerising melodies of the world-famous Canadian composer Howard Shore, who received three Academy Awards, two Golden Globes, and three Grammy Awards for his music for the trilogy. His iconic soundtrack has captivated millions worldwide, and is now brought to life in a spellbinding performance that includes vocal music inspired by Elvish songs, ancient folklore, and the poetic spirit of Middle-Earth.
Performed by Ensemble Sinfonietta Bern, this immersive evening will guide you through a sonic journey where elves sing, hobbits dance, and the shadows of Mordor loom in the distance. Alongside the orchestra, live vocals by Sarah Pagin will embody the voices of Tolkien’s world—from ethereal Elvish laments to the haunting chants of ancient realms, bringing a deeply emotional and otherworldly dimension to the music of “The Lord of the Rings.”
Tickets are CHF 29-59 for adults and CHF 19 for students.
