  • Composer Nicholas Britell won an Emmy for his music for the HBO series "Succession." The three-time Oscar-nominee talks with correspondent David Pogue about his scores for shows like the "Star Wars" series "Andor," and about his process for collaborating with such directors as Barry Jenkins ("Moonlight") and Adam McKay ("Don't Look Up").

    His song “Agape” from If Beale Street Could Talk is one of the most stunning songs ever. He’s such a talent.

    “Do you think anyone would notice this?”
    Have you met Star Wars geeks?
    There’s a bunch of videos about the different opening themes of Andor.
    Some combined all of them together.
    Marva’s Funeral March was so brilliant, emotional, and passionate very moving. Awesome that they played it live within the episode.

    My son graduated from Berkeley school of music. He starting to get in the industry of film score. I pay a lot more attention to the music when I watch a movie now. And the music is extremely important, it’s like the backbone of the movie! And I’m very proud of my son. He’s very talented!!

    He came to speak at one of my classes a couple years ago and was just the sweetest guy! I wasn’t even that familiar with his work back then and he was one of our most inspiring guests.

    His Barry Jenkins scores are timeless. The fact that Moonlight's score lost to LaLa Land was criminal. And man, 2018 w/Blackkklansmen, Black Panther AND If Beale Street... scores all nominated was a 3-way death match to the end. All 3 deserving.

    • @jaguar5198
      @jaguar5198 Рік тому +1

      I agree on Moonlight. That score was one of the stars of the movie....period.

    Love Mr.Britell's work! Had the chance to meet him at a Q&A after a If Beale Street Could Talk screening and it was quite delightful listening to him speak about his symbiotic working relationship with Barry Jenkins. A true inspiration !

    Absolutely marvelous and humble guy. The true definition of an artist who focuses on expressing what's in him rather than appealing to an audience. I am just saddened that most theatrical music seems to have dropped in terms of quality. Faster turnarounds and less focus come at a very hight price I am not ready and willing to pay. And yet, many do. This is why great music, when you happen to stumble upon it, is such a standout. And my definition from great music is simple: Something individual that does not just illustrate what's happening, but adds another layer of emotionality that our mind might not pick up, but our heart certainly does.

    Listen to Nicholas's "Song of Hal: Strings in B Minor" from the movie "THE KING" on your headphones. It boggles my mind that he didn't win an Oscar for this. It connects to your soul.

    I would highly recommend buying his soundtrack to, IF BEALE STREET COULD TALK. It is some of the most tender, heartbreaking and beautiful music you will ever listen to, especially the piece, AGAPE.

    The most impressive thing about Nicholas isn't his music writing or how well he plays instruments. It is his wife. She is stunning.
