About this episode
The Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer (Dune, Interstellar, Gladiator, The Lion King) has created some of the most iconic film scores of all time, but he’s struggled with stage fright for as long as he can remember. Now, he and his orchestra are featured in the new documentary “Hans Zimmer & Friends: Diamond in the Desert,” in which they perform live onstage at a massive concert in Dubai. Hans joins Tom Power over Zoom to talk about the film and his incredible career. If you enjoy this conversation and you’re looking for more conversations with composers, check out Tom’s interviews with Rufus Wainwright, John Adams or Wu-Tang Clan’s RZA.
