Tony Scott's 1986 film "Top Gun" conquered breathtaking heights, not least thanks to the world-famous song "Take My Breath Away" and the soundtrack by Harold Faltermeyer. Even then, there was speculation about a sequel to the screen epic and its film music. It was not until 36 years later that the sequel "Top Gun: Maverick" by Joseph Kosinski followed and, with six Oscar nominations and one Oscar won, is considered one of the most successful films of all time.

This is where the film music experience "Top Gun: Maverick – in Concert" comes in. While the award-winning blockbuster can be seen on the big screen, the 21st Century Orchestra under the direction of Ludwig Wicki brings the soundtrack to life live at the KKL Lucerne.

"Is that even feasible?" Tom Cruise, aka Lieutenant Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, confidently answers this question in 2022: "The answer lies solely with the captain in the cockpit." Maverick, one of the Navy's best aviators, is once again pushing the limits of what is possible, this time alongside the confident Natasha "Phoenix" Trace. Back at his old elite flying school "Top Gun", he is tasked with preparing young pilots for a dangerous mission – and meets the ghosts of his past in the process.

Action-packed flight scenes and deep emotions are once again set to music by Harold Faltermeyer, supported by Oscar winners Hans Zimmer and Lady Gaga as well as Lorne Balfe as co-composer. Peppered with a breath of fresh air under the wings, the soundtrack continues the musical legacy of 1986's "Top Gun".

Tony Scotts Film «Top Gun» aus dem Jahr 1986 eroberte atemberaubende Flughöhen, nicht zuletzt durch den weltberühmten Song «Take My Breath Away» und den Soundtrack von Harold Faltermeyer. Bereits damals gab es Spekulationen über eine Fortsetzung des Leinwandepos und seiner Filmmusik. Erst 36 Jahre später folgte die Fortsetzung «Top Gun: Maverick» von Joseph Kosinski und gilt mit sechs Oscar-Nominierungen und einem gewonnenen Oscar als einer der erfolgreichsten Filme aller Zeiten.

Daran knüpft das Filmmusik-Erlebnis «Top Gun: Maverick – in Concert» an. Während der preisgekrönte Blockbuster auf der Grossbildleinwand zu sehen ist, lässt das 21st Century Orchestra unter der Leitung von Ludwig Wicki den Soundtrack live im KKL Luzern zum Leben erwachen.

«Ist das überhaupt machbar?» Diese Frage beantwortet Tom Cruise alias Leutnant Pete «Maverick» Mitchell 2022 selbstbewusst: «Die Antwort liegt allein beim Kapitän im Cockpit.» Maverick, einer der besten Flieger der Navy, stösst erneut an die Grenzen des Machbaren, diesmal an der Seite der selbstbewussten Natasha «Phoenix» Trace. Zurück an seiner alten Elite-Flugschule «Top Gun» soll er junge Piloten für eine gefährliche Mission vorbereiten – und trifft dabei auf die Geister seiner Vergangenheit.

Actiongeladene Flugszenen und tiefe Emotionen werden erneut von Harold Faltermeyer vertont, unterstützt von den Oscar-Preisträgern Hans Zimmer und Lady Gaga sowie Lorne Balfe als Co-Komponisten. Gespickt mit frischem Wind unter den Flügeln setzt der Soundtrack das musikalische Erbe von «Top Gun» aus dem Jahr 1986 fort.
