Interstellar - How Hans Zimmer Creates the Sound of Space

UK: https://shorturl.at/enn27 US: https://shorturl.at/4LIAP More info: https://www.barnabymartin.com/the-quiet * Hans Zimmer’s score for Interstellar dispensed of a lot of the musical language that had been so commonplace in his scores before this film. Driven by the desire to create a sound-world that he, and director Christopher Nolan, hadn't yet explored, Zimmer created music full of soft, introspective sounds: sustained organ melodies and chords, hushed orchestral textures and transparent, widely-spaced harmony. In this essay, I look at how this sound-world perfectly captures the isolation and loneliness of space, but I also consider, more significantly, how Hans Zimmer’s music realises the emotional message that is at the heart of the film. ▶ Support my channel: https://www.patreon.com/listeningin ▶ Subscribe: https://bit.ly/2PlVaMS ____________________ ▶ Website: http://www.barnabymartin.com ▶ Twitter: https://twitter.com/BarnabyMartin FURTHER WATCHING Hans Zimmer - making of INTERSTELLAR Soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_8t2VlwK4w DP/30: Interstellar, Hans Zimmer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jU5rfokh4vw FURTHER READING/RESEARCH Interstellar de Hans Zimmer : plongée musicale au cœur des drames humains, par-delà l’infiniment grand.
