Based on
Paulette Jiles' 2016's excellent novel,
News of the World,
Tom Hanks reunites with director
Paul Greengrass in this new classic Western. The prolific
James Newton Howard recorded his score for the thriller over Studios One and Two, joining via Zoom whilst
Gavin Greenaway conducted with
Jonathan Allen engineering. Assisted by our own
Gordon Davidson and
Neil Dawes. The
soundtrack is available to listen to now, with the film available on Netflix in February!
Starring and directed by
George Clooney, the science fiction epic
The Midnight Sky is also up for Best Original Score. The brilliant Alexandre Desplat
composed the score which, due to the pandemic, saw him lead the
London Symphony Orchestra from Paris, recording 50 musicians in Studio One at a time with engineers
Peter Cobbin and
Kirsty Whalley. Conducted again by
Gavin Greenway and assisted by Abbey Road’s
Andy Maxwell and
Daniel Hayden.
