Sound of Vinyl

Star violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter and legendary film composer John Williams have joined forces to record an album together. Featuring a wide-ranging selection of Williams’ iconic movie themes – in new adaptations he has created especially for Mutter – Across the Stars will be released on 30 August 2019. The album showcases music from Star Wars, including “Rey’s Theme” from The Force Awakens, “Yoda’s Theme” from The Empire Strikes Back, “Across the Stars (Love Theme)” from Attack of the Clones and “Princess Leia’s Theme” from A New Hope, along with a variety of other memorable pieces, such as “Sayuri’s Theme” from Memoirs of a Geisha and “Hedwig’s Theme” from Harry Potter. The music was recorded at the historic Sony Pictures Scoring Stage in April this year with The Recording Arts Orchestra of Los Angeles under the baton of John Williams himself.

Now there is an exclusive 10” vinyl featuring the dramatic “Remembrances” theme from Schindler’s list together with Markings, a work for solo violin, strings and harp written for Mutter by Williams.
