The Hot Springs/Hot Springs Village Symphony Guild is pleased to continue its 2026–2027 Classic Concert Series with Hans Zimmer: A Film Music Lecture/Performance by Members of the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra.

Arkansas Symphony Orchestra music librarian, violinist, and String Academy faculty member Dr. Geronimo Oyenard has created a special lecture-performance featuring his original arrangements for string quartet to celebrate the long career of film composer Hans Zimmer (Lion King, Gladiator, Pirates of the Caribbean, Prince of Egypt, and others). The presentation will combine a live performance of many of Hans Zimmer's most famous themes with Dr. Oyenard’s commentary on the music and films of this legendary artist. The performance will be enhanced by a projection of the corresponding film clips shown on multiple overhead screens.

The program will take place on Sunday, March 7, 2027 at 3:00 p.m. at Village Bible Church, 100 Ponderosa Way, Hot Springs Village, Arkansas.

General admission is $10. You may click here to register for the concert in advance (either your confirmation or reminder email serves as your ticket) or pay at the door. The concert will last approximately one hour.
