Soul (2020)

[WorzelG]

It's really wild to see Soul pick up these regional awards in a year they went waaaaaaaay outside the box and composed a period big band / swing score.

I think a lot of the time, the relative success of the film, critically or commercially has an impact on how the score is judged or even noticed, like I preferred the GWTDT score to Social Network personally but the film wasn’t as well received as TSN so it wasn’t as acclaimed. I think Soul is doing very well due to word of mouth even though it isn’t available except on Disney+ but Mank was far more niche and went a bit under the radar. A lot of the Soul score has got into my head and I love the Batiste jazz TRAR combo, I think it elevates both of them.

I just received an email to say my Soul score CD has been dispatched
