Kung Fu Panda | Oogway Ascends |
Hans Zimmer, John Powell
“Kung Fu Panda” brought Hans Zimmer and one of his most frequent collaborators John Powell together. This animation film is the story of a fat panda bear in ancient China who aspires to become a kung fu master.
Zimmer crafts for Oogway in “Oogway Ascends” is truly awe-inspiring in its meditative presentation, with the elegance of the erhu and orchestral majesty making the piece a subtle highlight.
“Especially the conclusive “Oogway Ascends” are surprisingly beautiful and touching.”
