I've waited a long time to get the chance to see this performance and wow what a performance. The best ever: original vocals from epic Lisa Gerrard and Lion King vocals. Every band / orchestra member were the best at what they did also with incredible talent.

A day later and I'm still in awe of what I witnessed. The lighting, graphics, choreography, and guests were all brilliant and I haven't even got on to the music. From being blasted by a wall of sound to the point where you could hear a pin drop, the music and tempo moves from exciting to deeply emotional. I've little idea who each singer was, but every one provided something different: from a primaeval scream to tenderness to joy. As for the musicians, as Hans Zimmer stated each is a virtuoso musician in their own right but together with the orchestra from Ukraine this was off the scale. Finally, talking of Ukraine, Hans Zimmer proudly places their struggle at he front of everything. From start to finish the massive crowd is enveloped in blue and yellow lighting. Emotional on so many levels.

Hans Zimmer by far is one of the best composer's of our generation. To see him in action was like seeing Beethoven or Handel back in the day. I will never forget it.
