On July 23rd, Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer posted a message on his Facebook page saying he was devastated by the Aurora, Colorado theater shooting and that his heart went out to everyone affected by the tragedy. “Words fail me,” said Zimmer on Facebook. And while he didn’t have the words to express how he felt, he was inspired to express his sympathy and honor the victims of the Aurora tragedy with a song.
Says Zimmer:
“Aurora” is dedicated to those who lost their lives and were affected by the tragedy in Aurora, Colorado. I recorded this song in London in the days following the tragedy as a heartfelt tribute to the victims and their families. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to Aurora Victim Relief organization.
