Der Herr der Ringe & der Hobbit – das Konzert

The fabulous world of hobbits, elves and orcs is brought to life tonight in a major concert experience with a symphony orchestra, choir and star guests. From the menacing sounds of Mordor and the shrill attack of the black riders to the marvellous lyrical meodies of the elves – the Laeiszhalle is transformed into a musical scenario of Middle Earth by nearly 100 artists.

Der Herr der Ringe & der Hobbit – The concert

Peter Jackson’s world-famous film celebrates its 20th anniversary! The music of the hobbits and orcs comes to the concert hall stage in an impressive concert experience with soloists, choir and orchestra. The menacing sounds of Mordor and the Black Riders, the beautiful lyrical melodies of the Elves – the renowned Cinema Festival Symphonics transform reality into a musical setting of Middle-earth. Howard Shore composed much of the music for the film trilogies »The Lord of the Rings« and »The Hobbit« and received the Oscar, Grammys and the Golden Globe for it. His motifs are elementally touching when the ring unfolds its power and corrupts the bearer of all power: a parable with great contemporary relevance. Accompanied by violins, trumpets and timpani, the ensemble, soloists and choir whisk the audience away to the Shire, through the landscape of Rohan and up to Mount Doom. The melodic tones of flutes and violins are supported by green landscapes and gloomy scenarios on the screen in the background. Animations specially developed for the production add an extra dimension to this symphonic event. »The last Goodbye« and »Far over the Misty Mountains cold« are performed by soloists with powerful voices who add a personal touch to the well-known songs. »The Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit – The Concert« is a fantastic evening of a very special kind. Full of sound, full of atmosphere, unique! With state-of-the-art technology, the Cinema Festival Symphonics will take Middle-earth fans and fantasy lovers on a musical journey through all of The Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit films. The impressive light and screen animations flow harmoniously with the legendary melodies and enhance the atmosphere of each individual song. The ensemble celebrates a unique sound that fully immerses the audience in the world of fantasy and provides many goosebump moments!

Wie kommt der Geist in geistliche Musik, Herr Lauster?

How does spirit enter sacred music, Mr. Lauster? Not only sacred works are ingenious, inspire, and uplift. We readily attribute "spirit" to musical phenomena, to the inexplicable in art and other areas of existence. When is this justified and when not? Is the invisible phenomenon of sound, music, particularly predestined as a dwelling place of spirit and spirits? Myths, not only from the Christian cultural sphere, suggest this. The Protestant theologian Jörg Lauster, holder of the Chair of Dogmatics, Philosophy of Religion, and Ecumenism in Munich and author of fundamental books on Christianity, has dedicated a "biography" to the Holy Spirit and traces the "enchantment of the world" through art and culture.
