CYRANO – Original Soundtrack (Vinyl Record 2LP)
Cyrano’s powerful soundtrack, recorded at Abbey Road Studios, is written and composed by Bryce and Aaron Dessner of Grammy Award-winning American rock band The National with lyrics from the band’s Matt Berninger and composer Carin Besser. The National’s heart-shredding albums have held places in the top five official UK charts for the last two decades. The unique tones of The National echo throughout the expansive score, enhancing the film’s beauty, romance, and raw emotion. From wistful, dream-like melodies in Someone To Say, to the thundering rhythms in When I Was Born and the intense Madly, Bryce, Aaron, Matt, and Carin have created a soundtrack that is wholly integral to the script. The soundtrack features cast vocal performances from Peter Dinklage, Haley Bennett, Kelvin Harrison Jr. and Glen Hansard with music from London Contemporary Orchestra, and renowned pianist Víkingur Ólafsson throughout, including the solo piano track Saying Goodbye, written by Bryce Dessner and which plays out the album. Somebody Desperate is an exceptional addition to the soundtrack. The brand-new song, which is featured during the film’s end credits, is written and performed by The National. The soundtrack follows Bryce Dessner’s award-winning film score work as well as Aaron Dessner’s recent Album of the Year Grammy Award for his work co-producing and co-writing Taylor Swift’s Folklore, orchestrated by Bryce.
