Jonas Kaufmann - Sounds of Movies

Star tenor Jonas Kaufmann dedicates his Prague recital to his favorite cinema hits. A fantastic journey into the most beloved soundtracks.

The star tenor Jonas Kaufmann has always been a fan of cinema and soundtracks: now, for the first time, he brings this passion to the stage. In his new Sound of Movies, Kaufmann presents a programme that spans 80 years of film history.

The journey starts with the atmosphere of German songs from the 1930s, dives into Ennio Morricone's and Hans Zimmer's most famous film scores and culminates with hits from musicals that achieved great success on the big screen. An immersive experience that highlights music and cinema as the grand arts of emotions.
