The question "Is it even possible?" is answered confidently by Pete "Maverick" Mitchell in 2022: "The answer lies solely with the captain in the cockpit." Maverick, one of the Navy's best pilots, faces new challenges, this time alongside the self-assured Natasha "Phoenix" Trace. Back at his old elite flight school "Top Gun," he is tasked with preparing young pilots for a dangerous mission – and encounters the ghosts of his past.

 

The film music concert "Top Gun: Maverick – in Concert" transforms the stage into a scene of thrills, nostalgia, and musical delight. A concert experience for both film and music lovers alike!

Program and cast

 

The Blockbuster with Live Orchestra

 

Joseph Kosinski's blockbuster "Top Gun: Maverick," 36 years after the legendary original, is one of the most successful films of all time. Breathtaking action, deep emotions, and a soundtrack that moves you – all of this comes together for a unique live experience when the award-winning film is shown on the big screen in Munich for the first time in January 2025, with the Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Ben Palmer bringing the film score to life.

 

The soundtrack, composed by musical greats Harold Faltermeyer, Hans Zimmer, Lady Gaga, and Lorne Balfe, brings fresh air to the musical legacy of 1986. The full power of the film music pulls the audience into the cockpit as Maverick – played by Tom Cruise – pushes the limits of what is possible in thrilling flight scenes, allowing every emotion to be experienced up close.

Isar Philharmonic

Isarphilharmonie

Munich’s most modern concert hall

 

Since the Isarphilharmonie opened in October 2021, it has quickly gained a reputation for its special atmosphere and excellent sound. The list of orchestras performing here reads like a veritable Who’s Who, headed by the Munich Philharmonic, the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Munich Chamber Orchestra. High profile concert agencies see the auditorium as the perfect place for guest appearances by national and international orchestras and it also hosts jazz productions and large-scale popular music concerts of all genres.

 

But the Isarphilharmonie also has another string to its bow: it can be blacked out, making it the ideal venue for film screenings – with or without orchestral accompaniment. The auditorium is equipped with a large screen and top-class cinematic sound systems.

 

 

Architecture & acoustics

The building that houses the Isarphilharmonie is a steel structure with an internal volume of nearly 60,000 cubic metres. The concert hall itself can accommodate almost 2000 guests and is made from prefabricated solid wood elements. The walls are clad with black-stained softwood panels, while the stage and floors are made from light cedar wood for a striking contrast. The Isarphilharmonie at Gasteig HP8 was built by the general contractor NÜSSLI to the plans of architects gmp – Gerkan, Marg und Partner.

 

The Isarphilharmonie acoustics were created by Nagata Acoustics International – the team led by star acoustician Yasuhisa Toyota – who were also involved with the construction of the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg and the Philharmonie de Paris.
