Programme notes
Welcome to the musical battle of superheroes! We already know that their job is to fight the super-bad guys, but today we’re going to focus the battle on music: the soundtracks of Marvel’s heroes against the soundtracks of the heroes of the DC universe. On one side, leading the team, Spiderman, Captain Marvel and The Avengers. On the other hand, a group led by Wonder Woman, Batman and Superman. Let the music sound!
The Disney and Warner factories have been fighting for decades to produce the best superhero movies, and of course they are committed to music that lives up to it. The first great modern movie superhero was Superman and he was accompanied by a spectacular soundtrack signed by the great John Williams. Then came Batman (with music by Danny Elfman), Captain America (with a score by Alan Silvestri), Wonder Woman (with music by Oscar-winning Hans Zimmer) and Captain Marvel (with soundtrack by composer Pinar Toprak ). Between Marvel and DC they have produced more than fifty superhero movies with a supermusic going into battle. Who will win the match? Sure all of us!
