Qatar Airways has introduced new signature onboard music created in collaboration with renowned composer Hans Zimmer, adding a distinctive musical identity to its passenger experience.
Inspired by Qatar and its cultural heritage, the composition forms part of the airline’s five-track album, Burgundy Symphony. The collaboration blends Zimmer’s cinematic style with Qatar Airways’ vision of creating memorable travel experiences through music that captures the emotions and moments of a journey.
The launch took place at Hans Zimmer’s concert in Doha on November 6, where audiences got an exclusive preview of the collaboration through a film showcasing the inspiration behind Burgundy Symphony. Qatar Airways passengers can now experience the new music onboard.
The five-track album captures different stages of travel. Dawn reflects the excitement of new beginnings and discovery, while Dusk evokes the calm of flying above the clouds as daylight fades.
The Orchard captures moments of calm and reflection, inspired by the peaceful indoor garden at Hamad International Airport.
Homecoming celebrates the joy of returning home and how travel creates lasting memories that stay with passengers long after their journey ends.
An Ode to Qatar closes the album with a tribute to the country’s rich heritage, culture and ambition, celebrating the harmony between tradition and progress.
