Carter Burwell – The Banshees of Inisherin (The Big Score)

“The score for Searchlight Pictures’ The Banshees of Inisherin from Academy Award®-nominated composer, Carter Burwell, stands out as a separate character in this much buzzed about film. Tune in to hear Carter personally detail the behind-the-scenes creation of the music, recorded at the legendary Abbey Road Studios, which included incorporating Balinese gamelan instrumentation to create the light and dark sounds mirroring the story. Burwell previously worked with Banshees director Martin McDonagh on In Bruges, Seven Psychopaths, as well as his Oscar-nominated score for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.
