Zurich Film Festival making-of

2021

The Zurich Film Festival wanted to create an official film opener (fanfare) to play before each screening.
We were commissioned to compose a symphonic piece that would enable the creation of various music assets for the festival.

Eye to the World is a 4 minute track reflecting on the festival's iconic identity of a "Golden Eye" and to what happens in a blink of an eye. The compositions starts of softly (eye opening) and goes through various moods and textures before it ends in the contrary way of the opening (eye closing).

Music by Diego Baldenweg with Nora Baldenweg & Lionel Baldenweg

Performed by Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich
Conducted by Paavo Järvi
