Check Out AURORA’s Performance With Hans Zimmer at Earth Prom 2022
AURORA performed ‘Take Me Back Home’ alongside Hans Zimmer at the Royal Albert Hall for the BBC’s Earth Prom.
The new song, which is featured in the trailer for the upcoming documentary, ‘Frozen Planet II’, features the renowned composer and producer and Camila Cabello.
At the iconic London venue, AURORA joined Zimmer and an orchestra for the performance as images of animals played on a screen behind the musicians. Between the singer’s lines, David Attenborough’s narration was also heard over the video.
“An unforgettable night bringing the sounds of #FrozenPlanet2 to Royal Albert Hall with @AuroraMusic and the whole team,” Zimmer wrote on Instagram.
“Our work with Sir David Attenborough and the @BBC Natural History Unit is the most important work any of us have ever done. It’s not fiction— it is the truth. The truth that shows us how much we love this planet that we share and are inextricably interlinked with all fellow creatures.”
“And how, like all profound love stories, we need to be mindful and care greatly if we are not to lose everything.”
Over the weekend, AURORA also posted a statement on Instagram in which she expressed her joy at being associated with the sequel to Frozen Planet, which she helped launch.
“United by the warm hands of music x,” she wrote. “FROZEN PLANET II is like nothing I have ever seen before. I am truly honoured to be a part of its soundtrack. My little heart is trembling of joy. Beloved Mother Earth.”
After expressing gratitude for the opportunity to work with Zimmer and Attenborough, she added that our globe and our environment has always been a heart matter for her. She has always held on to the belief that what affects us most is how art, music and movies convey the earth’s importance and beauty.
“It shows us what it is that is worth saving, it stirs our natural instinct. Being a part of this incredible project, working with such wonderful people – has been an absolute honour. I can’t wait for the world to see the world through the eyes of herself. Captured with patience and respect, and made with love.”
The single ‘A Potion For Love,’ which was previously only available on vinyl, was released by AURORA last month.
“When I wrote ‘Exist For Love’ [the first single from ‘The Gods We Can Touch’], a celebration of the love we carry within us, I also wrote ‘Potion For Love’,” she explained at the time. “I wanted to also give something to the people who had lost their love.”
