This spectacular one-off event will present the very best footage and music from the highly acclaimed television series.
The landmark series, narrated by Sir David Attenborough, has taken viewers on an epic journey celebrating the diversity of life on each of the seven continents, and highlighting the many challenges faced by nature in a modern world dominated by humanity.
Seven Worlds, One Planet Live in Concert presents a selection of the most spectacular scenes from the television series displayed on a giant state of the art 4K Ultra HD LED screen. The series took a staggering 1,500 people over 4 years to make, including 92 film shoots across 41 countries.
The series highly emotive score, written by Academy Award winner Hans Zimmer and Jacob Shea for Bleeding Fingers Music, will be performed by the renowned City Of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra. The score also features the series captivating song, Out There, produced specifically for the series by Zimmer and the multi-award winning artist SIA.
Zimmer said, “Following up Planet Earth II and Blue Planet II was no easy task, but the BBC have outdone themselves yet again with the magnificent Seven Worlds, One Planet. It was a true honour to return to the series to compose the theme with Jacob Shea for Bleeding Fingers Music, and a special pleasure to collaborate with Sia for 'Out There'. These stories of nature are so important for us to show and preserve for future generations, and I am honoured to be a part of spreading this message. I am excited for everyone to get a chance to listen to the incredible score.”
During the concert, the audience will be taken on a journey of discovery through the ‘seven worlds’ - from the colourful paradises of South America to Asia’s vast wilderness; from the unforgiving deep freeze of the Antarctic to the searing heat of Africa; from North America via Australia to wildlife closer to home in Europe.
