Wait...what?! EPIC!
"Just spent the evening co-composing the mermaid theme from Pirates 4 with Hans Zimmer. Hila was recording all the solos. What a blast!" - This blog post by composer Eric Whitacre.
:D :D :D
SQUEE!!!!!
*ahem*
I haven't been following much news on any of my fandoms lately, especially PotC, so I realize this is probably not really new information. But...eee! Hans Zimmer is amazing. Eric Whitacre is also amazing. Zimmer + Whitacre = WIN. And Hila Plitmann performing the resulting music?! I think my brain may implode.
For those not familiar with Eric Whitacre, he's a very big name in current classical composing for choir and wind band. Here's the page for his Virtual Choir project, which is impressive in its own right. Here's a couple videos of him conducting his own pieces: "Sleep" and "Leonardo Dreams of His Flying Machine." As a music geek, I am very excited about this news. :D
