SALISBURY Cathedral is set to be filled with the otherworldly sounds of an Oscar-nominated film soundtrack in October.
Hans Zimmer’s soundtrack of Christopher Nolan’s 2014 movie Interstellar will be performed live by the organist from the original soundtrack recording on the Cathedral’s famous Father Willis organ on Saturday, October 4.
Internationally acclaimed organist Roger Sayer will begin this unique concert with excerpts from 2001: A Space Odyssey and Holst’s The Planets Suite, before a special film The Making of the Interstellar Soundtrack will give viewers a rare opportunity to glimpse into the making of this incredible soundtrack.
In 2014, the film score composer Hans Zimmer personally invited Roger to contribute to the recording of the organ part for the Interstellar film soundtrack, using the organ at Temple Church, where he was director of music at the time.

There will also be the opportunity for audience members to ask questions about the creating of the soundtrack and hear from Roger himself about his experience working on this iconic film with Nolan and Zimmer.
Speaking of Roger Sayer, award winning composer Hans Zimmer said: “He is without doubt an extraordinary artist whose humanity shines in the impeccable artistry that flows from his hands.”
Tickets for Roger Sayer: Interstellar on Saturday, October 4 at 7.30pm are £12.50 and are available via the cathedral website salisburycathedral.org.uk
