Game of Thrones had some of the best soundtracks in television history, thanks to the creative genius of music composer Ramin Djawadi. He returned with his amazing scores for House of The Dragon, the Game of Thrones prequel series, and just the teaser trailer was enough to remind the fans why we love his work so much. He was back on May 13 with a live concert at the Hollywood Bowl, featuring some of the best tunes from the Game of Thrones franchise.
The first Game of Thrones Live Concert since the pandemic
The Hollywood Bowl was packed to the brim as fans from all over the world, some in cosplays, attended the much-awaited event on May 13, 2023. Fans were delighted to see Djawadi live in action as they jammed along with his electrifying performance.

How the Game of Thrones Live Concert “pushes the emotions a lot”
Speaking to Collider about his Game of Thrones Live Concert, which returned after 4 years, Djawadi said, “Absolutely, that’s what’s so great about these live shows, that I’m able to connect with all the listeners out there because normally I can’t when the show is on air. But that’s what’s really amazing in these live settings because there is an audience, and this being a music show, obviously, the music is in the foreground.”
“We have either no dialogue at all or when we have dialogue it’s just a little snippet here and there. So it’s really just the music-only show obviously. That really pushes the emotions a lot, and it’s very interesting to see the audience react to certain scenes, even though most of them know what’s going to happen when we perform the music to certain scenes, but still, you can see that they kind of relive all these scenes and they react and they scream when they see their favorite character, or when somebody dies, and that makes it really fun.”
