WELCOME TO

DEADLINE’S COMPOSER SHOWCASE OF ORIGINAL MUSIC FOR SOME OF TELEVISION’S MOST ACCLAIMED SHOWS

BY DIANA LODDERHOSE

WELCOME TO ANOTHER EDITION OF DEADLINE’S SOUND & SCREEN TELEVISION

EVENT, where we’ll be shining a spotlight on talented musicians and their scores for some of this year’s most striking television offerings. We know how integral music is when it comes to creating the mood of a project, and that’s why we’re delighted to be back in UCLA’s Royce Hall where we can put the music and its composers front and center.

And this year’s roster is an excellent one. We’ve got Bear McCreary, who has not only composed the powerful music behind Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power , but can also shed some light on how he spent eight months composing nine hours of music

for the epic Middle-earth saga. Thomas Mizer and Curtis Moore also return to our event to break down how they approached the recent season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel .

We’ve also got Brian Tyler and Breton Vivian, two prolific composers who are responsible for the emotional and restrained score behind Taylor Sheridan’s hit series Yellowstone and its prequel 1923 . Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, the multiaward-winning songwriters and lyricists known for writing the hit songs behind Frozen , are also joining us today and will explain how they wrote the new and original music for Hulu’s musical comedy Up Here with a performance of the song “Please Like Me”.

Was there anyone who wasn’t humming along to the wildly unique, and eerie theme tune of The White Lotus Season 2 each time they tuned into a new episode? We’ve got its composer Cristobal Tapia de Veer on hand with a performance of that theme song “Renaissance”, who will talk about how he composed what would become a viral piece of music.

Elsewhere, we’ve got the music and talents behind hit shows ranging from Showtime’s George & Tammy to CBS Studios/Paramount+’s Star Trek: Picard to Apple TV+’s Ted Lasso and Shrinking and Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building Plus, a special performance from multihyphenate David Johansen. So, sit back, relax and enjoy the music. ★
