“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. You can get it and hear it here.

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."

    Composer Sarah Kirkland Snider’s fifth full-length LP, a new, all-orchestral album Forward Into Light, produced by Silas Brown and recorded by Metropolis Ensemble led by artistic director/conductor Andrew Cyr, is due February 27 on New Amsterdam / Nonesuch Records. It features Forward Into Light, inspired by the American women’s suffrage movement; the string orchestra and harp (Noël Wan) version of Drink the Wild Ayre; Eye of Mnemosyne, a work on memory, innovation, and culture; and Something for the Dark, a meditation on resilience. Snider says: “I chose to create an album of these four works because they share themes of perseverance, alliance, and evolution through dark and light—concepts that have been at the forefront of my mind in recent years."
