Hans+Zimmer

Everyone enjoys a good movie. But what really gives a movie its mood is the music behind it. There are many excellent musical soundtracks composers out there, but Hans Zimmer is my personal favourite.

He is a musical soundtrack composer and a music producer.
 * //Hans Florian Zimmer//** was born in Germany on September 12, 1957.

He has been working for nearly three decades, and has composed over 100 musical soundtracks. Amoung his most appreciated works are the soundtracks he created for **__The Lion King__, __The Da Vinci Code__, and all three __Pirates of the Carabbean.__**

His work has earned him many prestigious awards, such as **Golden Globes, Grammys** and yes, even an **Oscar.** The Oscar, also known as the **Academy Award**, was won by Zimmer in 1994 for **__The Lion King.__**
