” was an international cultural phenomenon and the Marvel movie’s Oscar-winning score, by Swedish composer Ludwig Göransson, was equally as thrilling for its unique blend of African influences, traditional orchestra and modern production techniques.
Göransson had been urging Disney and Marvel to undertake this for some time, and when the Philharmonic agreed several months ago, “I was thrilled,” he says. “What was most important to me was that we get the right players to play this. We have the best orchestra in the world, now let’s get the African musicians who played on the score.”
There is approximately two hours of music in the 134-minute film, so the musicians on stage will be playing most of the time. Choral elements of the score, and the music-production portions, will be played from the original tracks, while the orchestra and soloists will be performing live under the baton of Thomas Wilkins, principal conductor of the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra.
The composer, a longtime collaborator with “Black Panther” director Ryan Coogler , spent a month in West Africa researching music for the film. He accompanied Maal on tour, recorded his vocal performances in Senegal, and learned about the various styles of African drumming that he incorporated into the score .
