Hauptwerk goes Interstellar!

In November 2014 Christopher Nolan released the Oscar winning science fiction Hollywood blockbuster Interstellar. It is the second feature film to incorporate Hauptwerk into its soundtrack (Tim Burton's Frankenweenie was the first).

While interviewed in the February 2015 issue of Keyboard magazine film composer Hans Zimmer states:

"I was trying to hunt down a great pipe organ sample collection, and I came across this plug-in called Hauptwerk. Man, it's really incredible. So I was writing with its Salisbury Cathedral organ [sample set] which isn't a bad place to start..."

"Hauptwerk is truly a brilliant piece of software. I love it!!!!"

The film uses both Hauptwerk with the Salisbury Cathedral organ samples (Milan Digital Audio) as well as the Temple Church Harrison & Harrison organ in London played by organist and Hauptwerk user Roger Sayer. The organs are accompanied by a full symphonic orchestra creating a lush yet powerful musical soundscape for an otherworldly journey through time and space.

Learn more about how Hollywood film composer Hans Zimmer used Hauptwerk and the Salisbury Cathedral virtual pipe organ to score and produce portions of the final cut for the Christopher Nolan film Interstellar.

Well, what a small world!
Roger has been a good friend for 25 years, and was previously my Boss at Rochester Cathedral (where we are now using Hauptwerk and the Hereford sample-set).
Congratulations to all involved.

Hans Zimmer says Hauptwerk is "really incredible".

We could have told him that!

Congratulations to Martin and Brett for both Hauptwerk and Salisbury.

Now, how are you going to top that?
