“If you've seen One Battle After Another, you will know that the score is so important to the film," Soundtracking host Edith Bowman says ahead of her conversation with the score's composer, Jonny Greenwood. "And it starts with score. You're in it because of that. There's so many textures and layers and wonderful motifs and themes throughout the entire score. I think it's definitely one of my favorite Jonny Greenwood scores. And it feels like it's almost everything that he's previously done with Paul Thomas Anderson has led to this particular score. It's so good … Incredible.” You can hear their conversation here.

Jonny Greenwood's score to Paul Thomas Anderson's film One Battle After Another is now available on double vinyl and CD, following its recent digital release. The album features 18 new compositions performed by London Contemporary Orchestra, with conductor Hugh Tieppo-Brunt. Greenwood contributed piano, guitar, bass, percussion, and ondes Martenot. The film, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, and Benicio Del Toro, and Regina Hall, Teyana Taylor, and Chase Infiniti, is Greenwood's sixth Nonesuch-released Anderson film score. "Paul Thomas Anderson fans are well accustomed to how instrumental Jonny Greenwood's music is to the auteur’s body of work," Indiewire says of their collaborations: "Greenwood's original scores expertly capture Anderson's tones."

Congratulations to Yasmin Williams, who has won the International Folk Music Awards' Rising Tide Award, which "celebrates emerging artists who inspire others by embodying the values and ideals of the folk community through their work." The composer/guitarist's "inventive finger-style approach ... has expanded the instrument’s expressive possibilities," reads the Folk Alliance International citation. "Through her boundary-pushing artistry and principled activism, Yasmin Williams stands as one of contemporary music’s most visionary and courageous voices, fully embodying the values and ideals of the folk community." The IFMAs will be presented at the 38th Annual Folk Alliance International Conference in New Orleans on January 21.

After the Hunt, which stars Julia Roberts, Ayo Edebiri, Andrew Garfield, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Chloë Sevigny, marks the fourth film Reznor and Ross have scored for Guadagnino.

Tortoise has a three-night run at Bowery Ballroom in NYC; Nathalie Joachim and Kronos Quartet have shows nearby. Jeremy Denk plays Bach in Berkeley. Hurray for the Riff Raff joins Orville Peck’s Rodeo in Pioneertown. Natalie Merchant is in New Hampshire and upstate New York. Robert Plant and Saving Grace are in Denver. Cécile McLorin Salvant tours France and Spain. Gustavo Santaolalla is in Sweden. Chris Thile plays London Jazz Fest and Bristol. Davóne Tines is in New Jersey. Molly Tuttle tours Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Iowa.

"I have seen this woman perform live a number of times, and one of the great thrills of watching her has been beholding what she has discovered, what she has unearthed in music that other artists wrote," Wesley Morris says of Cécile McLorin Salvant, his guest on the New York Times' Cannonball. "Their songs become hers, and to a listener, they mean something deeper than the original and often sound completely new." The episode is focused on the art of the cover song—a phrase Salvant doesn't use—and opens with a list of Morris's all-time favorites, on which he includes Salvant's take on Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights," from her 2022 Nonesuch debut album, Ghost Song.

Molly Tuttle celebrated Halloweekend this year with a return to Suwannee Hulaween in Live Oak, Florida, where she and her band performed "Thriller." You can watch it here. Tuttle is up for two Grammy Awards: Best Americana Album for So Long Little Miss Sunshine and Best Americana Performance for the album track "That's Gonna Leave a Mark."

"No other group in jazz, past or present, sounds quite like Mary Halvorson’s Amaryllis," WRTI's The Late Set says of its guest and her band. "A sextet that places her guitar within a shifting matrix—alongside trumpet, trombone, vibraphone, bass, and drums—it’s a chamber ensemble with a dynamic core, forever in a state of flux." Halvorson spoke with Josh Jackson, The Late Set co-host with Nate Chinen, about the band—whose new album, About Ghosts, is on the show's short list for Album of the Year—ahead of a recent concert at Solar Myth in Philadelphia. You can hear it here.

Chris Thile's Bach: Sonatas and Partitas, Vol. 2—on which he performs Bach's Partita No. 2 in D minor, BWV 1004; Sonata No. 3 in C major, BWV 1005; and Partita No. 3 in E major, BWV 1006—is out now. For his second recording of Bach Violin Sonatas and Partitas, 12 years after the first volume, the mandolin virtuoso opted for a more personal approach, allowing himself to take liberties with the scores, which he recorded in multiple, somewhat untraditional, locations of personal significance. Nonesuch Store orders include an autographed print while they last. Thile kicks off his European tour tonight and resumes his US tour in January.
