Description
|
|
|
|
"Is it to chart an emotional journey, enhance a comic moment, establish a change of mood or pace?" asks John Lunn, the Emmy Award–winning composer of the music for this smash hit series, set during the Edwardian era in the fictional estate of Downton, Yorkshire. "I choreograph the scene and fit it with the dialogue … as the music is designed very carefully to complement it…. Each episode has its own recording session. Most of the musicians … are from the major London orchestras…. Not only do we have an incredible quality of musicianship, we also have a real consistency to the sound." Oftentimes the background music expresses feelings of love and longing that the characters cannot articulate—as do the occasional popular songs that are part of the action, such as "If You Were the Only Girl in the World" and "Roses of Picardy," sung here in period style by Alfie Boe.
