Score

Description

2CELLOS explore the magic of cinema and television in their 2017 album Score, reimagining the most beloved film and TV melodies with their distinctive sound. Score opens with an arrangement of Ramin Djawadi's Game of Thrones Main Title theme, in which the stirring sound of cellos announces each of what may be the most eagerly awaited episodes in contemporary television.

Themes that drove some of the biggest epics in movie history are also featured in fresh new treatments – such as favourite Oscar-winning themes from James Horner's score for Titanic ("My Heart Will Go On"), John Williams' score for Schindler's List and as well as "For the Love of a Princess" from Braveheart (James Horner).

The vocal beauty of the cello's sound is a perfect match for a brace of romantic themes. These include the Henry Mancini and Johnny Mercer song "Moon River" from Breakfast at Tiffany's; Ennio Morricone's beautiful theme for Cinema Paradiso, Nino Rota's love theme for The Godfather; Francis Lai's Oscar-winning theme from Love Story; Hans Zimmer's theme from Rain Man; and Stanley Myers' haunting "Cavatina" heard in The Deer Hunter.
2CELLOS have forged a signature style that breaks down the boundaries between genres of music, from classical and film music to pop and rock.

Score is available as a limited edition of 1000 numbered copies on purple vinyl and includes an insert.
