Music has always been an integral part of the “Star Wars” universe, dating back to the John Williams scores for the original movie trilogy. So will Emmy voters recognize one, two or all…
Britell spent more than two years on “Andor,” the backstory of “Rogue One” hero Cassian Andor , including several months creating music that was played on the set during filming – from the Time Grappler’s hammer-banging signals on Ferrix to the alien electronica in the clubs on Morlana and the amateur funeral band playing a dirge for Cassian’s mother in the finale.
Cassian’s home world of Kenari, for example, needed “a forest texture, percussion, the sound of rustling leaves.” Ultimately, Britell wrote seven and a half hours of music, recorded over the course of a year in London – “more work than I’ve ever done in my life,” he says. He is now working on season 2, slated to debut next year.
He wrote a four-minute piece that hints at Obi-Wan’s loneliness and his restlessness, and an Emmy nomination in the main-title theme category may be the only sure thing among any of these entries. Holt enlisted two of the world’s great classical soloists, violinist James Ehnes and cellist Caroline Dale, to contribute solos, and while she started work in London, she flew to America to write and record most of it with a 75-piece L.A. orchestra. Swedish folk musician Ale Möller played “a huge ancient hunting horn” in parts of the score as well.
