| 1. The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry |
| 2. Original score and original songs from the 2023 drama feature film directed by Hettie Macdonald, based on the novel by Rachel Joyce, starring Jim Broadbent, Penelope Wilton and Claire Rushbrook, produced by Essential Cinema and released by Embankment Films |
| 3. THE STORY: Harold is an ordinary man who has passed through life, living on the side lines, until he goes to post a letter one day…and just keeps walking |
| 4. THE SCORE: “Much of the music was performed by myself on the violin and piano along with gentle synthesiser accompaniment and strings for the bigger emotional moments. Music that I get to perform as well as compose is always very personal. It all comes from a single melody, at times it is just alternating chords, like the left right motion of walking, this alternating motion helps the mind to process. When the bass comes in it changes the harmony into a four chord progression, other instruments join and the music grows and becomes more uplifting. There is also the other side of the theme, the dark version of the melody, which works in the same way. As the album develops the dark and light versions of the theme intertwine, growing in complexity leading ultimately to the cathartic ending. This was inspired by Harold Fry walking and processing but it is there for any listener to walk and think to. Both music and walking are good for mental health and I hope this music was created for that purpose.” – |
