Description

Cover Notes: Composer Bear McCreary’s score for ’10 Cloverfield Lane’ is a masterful assemblage of elements including a 90-piece orchestra, a 45-piece string ensemble, a grouping of 30 celli and eight bass, and a string quartet. These traditional instruments are combined with two unusual feature instruments, the yayli tanbur and the blaster beam, an experimental instrument built and played by Craig Huxley. ‘Bear has written an incredible score for [director] Dan Trachtenberg’s 10 Cloverfield Lane’, said producer J.J. Abrams. ‘It is tense, emotional music that gives the film scope and heart, augments the surprise and horror. It’s an homage to Herrmann, but wholly original at the same time. I’m deeply grateful to Bear for his contribution to this movie’.
