2017/18. Composed and arranged all the historical music for this film.

2019. Hugely enjoyable to work with Damon Albarn and Mike Smith again on arranging renaissance reeds and recorders for his score. A day spent multi-tracking up to eleven parts, including for rackett, and an arrangement for renaissance wind of the Twentieth Century Fox theme tune! They never used it sadly.

2018. This hugely successful Oscar-Wining picture was a pleasure to work on. In 2019 I won the Crystal Pines Award for Best Original Score for this film. Great to work with Yorgos Lanthimos.
