Description: An awe-inspiring score for the third, and final instalment of the BBC’s innovative, highly acclaimed nature series narrated by David Attenborough. The 8-part nature series is scored by Hans Zimmer, together with Jacob Shea (Seven Worlds One Planet, Blue Planet II) and Sara Barone (Grimcutty) of Bleeding Fingers Music. Bastille’s Dan Smith has collaborated on the score and his vocals are featured on the show’s opening title theme song, as well as within all episodes of the series.The ScoreThere is lyricism and magic in the score, from gorgeous strings and fragile glass-like percussion to powerful brass and full orchestra ostinatos. In the opening theme, ‘Planet Earth III Suite’, the gentle vocals usher a soaring 4-note brass theme, with the brass gradually disintegrating, joining the strings, to be brought back in a commanding statement. The score proves to be as alive as the planet, depicting pain, rage, and urgency, broken with moments of beauty and tranquillity. There is an ongoing clock-like pulse, sometimes juddering and stopping, depicted by a breathing, living sound of the orchestra. This is Hans Zimmer and Bleeding Fingers Music at their best, creating a timeless TV soundtrack for the ages. Filmed over five years, Planet Earth III uses pioneering filmmaking technology to reveal the greatest wonders of life on earth. Lightweight drones, high-speed cameras and remotely operated deep-sea submersibles transport viewers to spectacular unseen landscapes, from remote jungles and scorching deserts to the darkest caves and depths of the ocean. Planet Earth III’s first episode was aired on BBC One and iPlayer on Sunday 22nd October. The final series in the Trilogy, the series has already received glowing reviews. The Guardian describes it as an “awe-inspiring series” and goes on to say that “It is possible to watch and enjoy it purely for the astonishing footage – but it will horrify you too”. The Times comments that it “is magnificent, but it’s a fast track to becoming really quite sad”, whilst The I calls it “spectacular, eye-opening, awe-inspiring – and terrifying”. There is a theme of sadness and terror emerging here. The knowledge about climate change has not initiated enough action and reform as it was hoped for, and once again, David Attenborough rallies a call – “The natural world continues to surprise us, but since Darwin’s time it has changed beyond recognition, being transformed by a powerful force – us… At this crucial time in our history, we must now look at the world through a new lens.”Hans ZimmerWith over 150 soundtracks to his credit, Hans Zimmer has been honoured with many accolades, an Academy Award, two Golden Globes, three Grammys, an American Music Award, a Tony Award and The Henry Mancini Award for Lifetime Achievement.
