Christopher Nolan’s Oscar-winning sci-fi epic Interstellar will be presented live in concert on the big screen at The O2, London, on Sunday 23 May 2027, accompanied by a spectacular live performance of Hans Zimmer’s Academy Award and BAFTA-nominated revelatory score.
For two performances only (matinee and evening), Interstellar Live will bring together the 65-piece Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra, acclaimed conductor and Hans Zimmer-collaborator, Matt Dunkley as well as Roger Sayer, the organist personally selected by Zimmer to perform the original Interstellar soundtrack, for an arena-scale celebration of one of the most acclaimed films and film scores of the 21st century.
With Nolan’s complete film unfolding on the big screen, Zimmer’s score will be performed live in perfect synchronisation by the expansive 65-piece Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra. Sixteen violins, eight violas, eight cellos and four double basses will be joined by a full complement of woodwind and brass – including flutes, oboes, cor anglais, clarinets, bassoons, contrabassoon, horns, trombones and tuba – alongside harp, two pianos, two keyboards and a percussion section featuring bass marimba, large bass drum and timpani. Together, they will bring the score’s vast orchestral crescendos, driving rhythms and extraordinary range of textures to life on an arena scale.
At the heart of the performance will be acclaimed organist Roger Sayer, whose connection to Interstellar goes back to the creation of the original soundtrack. Sayer was hand-picked by Zimmer to record the organ elements of the score, giving audiences at The O2 the opportunity to hear one of the musicians behind the original recording perform this extraordinary music live.
The score itself has taken on a life far beyond the film, becoming one of the most recognisable and celebrated pieces of contemporary film music.
Internationally hailed by the press to this day as one of the best movies of the 21st century, Interstellar was also named one of the top ten movies of 2014 and received five Academy Award nominations including Best Visual Effects, Best Production Design, Best Sound Mixing, Best Sound Editing and Best Original Score.
With our time on Earth coming to an end, a team of explorers undertakes the most important mission in human history: traveling beyond this galaxy to discover whether mankind has a future among the stars.
