Product Details

Product Description

The ground breaking Netflix epic TV biopic series was indeed a huge sea change in home streaming content output, bringing together some of Britain's biggest names in theatre, film and TV to portray the history of Queen Elizabeth II's 70 years as the UK monarch. Controversial at times, it had many critics but it was hugely popular with no less than 4 actresses taking on her portrayal.

The respect, sensitivity and gravitas we would expect for a histirical drama production like this was self evident from the opening credits and the accompanying music. The theme that Balfe, Gregson Williams and Zimmer created perfectly framed and set up each episode beautifully. A little known fact is that it is based on a song written 400 years before it by Henry Purcell in his 'semi-opera' KING ARTHUR. The harmonies Purcell wrote in his 'Cold song' were very progressive for the time it was written but provides a wonderful bed for the modern writing team to use as their inspiration.

This orchestration follows the original TV soundtrack as closely as possible for standard concert orchestra instrumentation:

2 Flutes
Piccolo
2 Oboes
2 Clarinets
1 Bass Clarinet
2 Bassoons

4 Horns
3 Trumpets
3 Trombones
Tuba

Timpani
2 Percussion
[Taiko Drum/Large Bass Drum]

Strings
