Robin Carolan - Nosferatu (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

€44,95
Monstaaaaaaaaa......
Currently good stock Limited stock Currently unavailable

Robin Carolan’s latest soundtrack for Robert Eggers’ highly anticipatedNosferatuisa haunting, gothic-infused and meticulously crafted work that draws from a vast palette of sounds, instruments, and inspirations. Following their successful collaboration on The Northman, Carolan reunites with Eggers to bring the legendary tale of Nosferatu to life, infusing the film with a score that is as complex and nuanced as the story itself.WithDaniel Pioro, one of Britain’s most exciting young classical musicians, at the helm as the orchestra leader and first chair for a vast majority of the recording, the soundtrack features a vast orchestration, including 60 string players, a full choir, various horns and woodwinds, a harpist, and two percussionists. Despite the grandeur of the orchestration, one of the most challenging pieces was the music box used at the film’s beginning. Carolan and Eggers struggled to perfect its sound, a process marked by their meticulous attention to detail, which Carolan describes as almost telepathic.

Set in the 1800s, Nosferatu allowed Carolan to incorporate contemporary instrumentation, though he made a deliberate effort to ensure the score didn’t sound overly modern. Letty Stott, who also worked onThe Northman, contributed ancient horns and pipes, enhancing the soundtrack’s eerie atmosphere. Additionally, percussionistPaul Clarviscustom-built a toaca-like instrument for added authenticity.

Carolan’s inspirations for the soundtrack were as eclectic as they were profound. He frequently drew upon the works ofBartokandCoil, while films like The Innocents, Angels and Insects, andEyes Wide Shut provided cinematic inspiration. Additionally, he explored the more obscure side of Hammer Horror soundtracks and found a connection to the music of the Ukrainian film Eve of Ivan Kupalo, which helped shape the score’s otherworldly tone.

Carolan intentionally moved beyond the typical horror score, focusing on capturing the tale’s melancholy and tragic elements while weaving in a sense of warped romanticism.The result is a soundtrack that not only complements the film but also stands on its own as a testament to Carolan’s artistry and the enduring power of collaboration.
