Hans Zimmer is undoubtedly an incredibly influential composer. He has redefined how modern film music sounds. He has earned his spot amongst Max Steiner, Korngold & John William as a giant of the field.However, I’ve noticed a bit of tendency to give him sole credit for his collaborative works.So let me say:The music for Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl was written by Klaus Badelt, while Zimmer produced the score. A number of other composers (seven in total) also worked on the score and composed sections of it.Hans Zimmer co-composed the scores for Batman Begins and The Dark Knight with James Newton Howard.Zimmer co-composed the score for Gladiator with Lisa Gerrard.Zimmer co-composed the score for Blade Runner 2049 with Benjamin Wallfisch.These great film scores come from partnerships, not from one person. I know it's very easy to simplify everything to just a couple of easy to remember names, but I think it's important to try and not to do this.Also while I have you here, the Misty Mountain song/theme from The Hobbit was not written by Howard Shore but by New Zealand composers David Long and the group Plan 9. via /r/movies https://ift.tt/2Z3vnPH
