The approach
I helped blend period instruments (lute) with more mystical textures (celesta, Gamelan Gangsa). A low music budget meant recording soloists — violin, cor anglais, guitars and me on cello — in a raw, intimate way rather than with a full orchestra.
Recognition
Winner of the Ivor Novello Award for Best TV Soundtrack — beating our bigger-budget score of the same year, SS-GB. Cast: Anya Taylor-Joy, Romola Garai, Alex Hassell.
