Örvarsson gives period epic modern edge

9 September 2009 1,946 views 6 Comments

atliAtli Örvarsson, the up and coming composer whose recent scores include Vantage Point and Babylon A.D., is doing the score for Dominic Sena’s 14th century adventure Season of the Witch, starring Nicolas Cage, Ron Perlman and Ulrich Thomsen. This is Örvarsson’s first assignment with Sena, who previously worked with John Frizzell on Whiteout, Christopher Young on Swordfish and Trevor Rabin on Gone in Sixty Seconds. Örvarsson’s score for Season of the Witch was recently recorded in London. It’s a hybrid score with orchestral as well as electronic elements, and also ethnic/period instruments. Atli Örvarsson said to MovieScore Magazine that “the approach is definitely ‘modern’ despite the film taking place in the 14th century. There’s also quite a bit of vocal stuff in there as the subject matter is quite religious and perhaps supernatural at times.” The film is coming out, distributed by Lionsgate, on March 19 next year.

    Just something that needs to be cleared… It’s not the first collaboration between Sena & Örvarsson. Örvarsson did score Whiteout before he got rejected by the producer… ;)
