Original score from the 2021 drama feature film directed by Bille August, starring Birthe Neumann, Simon Bennebjerg and Asta Kamma August, produced by Motor and released by SF Studios (Denmark).
The intense friendship between Karen Blixen, the Danish author best known for her autobiographical novel Out of Africa, and Thorkild Bjørnvig, a young and promising poet.
“It was a great pleasure to compose the music for this very beautiful film directed by the great director, Bille August. He asked me to compose music that contained elements of shadow and magic at the same time dark, subtle and haunting by mixing orchestral acoustic elements and sound design. I worked on the musical textures to find these different colors, using the orchestra and synthetic sources. I used different musical motifs played by an alto flute, a harp and a bassoon which respond to the strings by a melodic back and forth movement. Some music is like waves in which an ambivalence is born linked to the narrative aspects of the film. The sensation is uncomfortable, charged by desire, manipulation and destiny. The soundtrack also includes an excerpt from Franz Schubert’s Andantino from Piano Sonata No. 20 in A Major, D. 959, which is used in a key scene of the film.” – Frédéric Vercheval
