ABOUT MY SUBMISSION
Here is my submission to the Abbey Road Studios Film Scoring Competition. I discovered the contest on April 20, 2021 to discover it had a deadline of April 24th. I never worked so fast in my life but t was a great challenge if I wanted to make it in time. There was little direction and the clip was a very simple one that really seemed to not provide much in the way of scoring anything of any significance. Yet, that is the challenge in most cases. Taking what little is revealed about the plot and characters, I chose to compose something that acts as a precursor to what is forthcoming.

Entrants are urged to follow their own voice and trust their instincts. Make space for the dialogue whilst setting the tone for the rest of the film. Take the opportunity to try something outside your comfort zone and remember to ask yourself ‘what can my music provide to support the story?’.

ABOUT THE FILM
Following its breakthrough cinema release last year, STUDIOCANAL recently released the Digital, DVD, Blu-ray, SteelBook® of Rose Glass’ universally acclaimed directorial debut Saint Maud, starring Morfydd Clark and Jennifer Ehle. Available to order now from Amazon on Digital, DVD & Blu-ray.

Live-in nurse Maud (Morfydd Clark) arrives at the home of Amanda (Jennifer Ehle), a famous dancer now frail from illness and trapped in her grand, isolated house. At first, Amanda is intrigued by this religious young woman, who provides a distraction from her failing health. Maud, in turn, is bewitched by her new patient. But Maud is not all that she seems.

She is tormented by a violent secret from her past and by ecstatic messages she believes are directly from God. She becomes convinced she has been sent to Amanda not simply as a nurse, but to serve a divine purpose. As her grip on reality slides out of control, Maud's care turns into a deadly mission to save Amanda’s soul, by any means necessary. Screen ‘Star of Tomorrow’ Morfydd Clark and BAFTA and Tony Award-winner Jennifer Ehle come together in this electrifying psychological horror from debut writer/director and Screen ‘Star of Tomorrow’ Rose Glass.

The film’s haunting score is by London-based composer Adam Janota Bzowski. Saint Maud marks his first feature-length score, which has already won him Best Original Music at the 2020 Gérardmer Fantasticarts Film Festival.

He now wants you to reinterpret the score to a section of the film!
