Inception Live Concert part 1/2

I recently got turned on to Hans Zimmer's music after watching the movie Inception for the second time on video(first time at the theater). Both the movie and the music were amazing to me even the first time, but after seeing it a second time, I was really in tune to the music, probably because I've been writing more instrumentals as of late, especially in piano, and thought this may be a good time to widen my horizons musically. This sort of music has always appealed to me because much of it integrates alot of orchestral music and strings within. I've always had a great appreciation for Classical music since I was a child. Believe it or not, I used to listen to it while drawing when I was only in Elementary school! Who listens to Classical music when you're only 8 yrs old, right? Well, apparently I did, and I loved it. :) Later I learned to appreciate all types of music and even had the ability to mimic most music, whether in my mind or recording. That's why I want to delve into this segment of music for awhile to see where it takes me, even if it's just to gain much more appreciation for composers like Hans Zimmer!

So if you have about 10 minutes to kill, sit back and listen to this amazing piece by this very talented group of musicians led by Mr. Zimmer! :)
