Revered for her multi-award-winning scores for film and TV (Chernobyl, Joker, Tár), Hildur Guðnadóttir released her debut album, Mount A, in September 2006. Mount A’s 20th anniversary was an opportunity to take stock. “Seeing that number on the horizon felt like a good moment to pause,” says Guðnadóttir. “When I was trying to be a one-person string orchestra, I always dreamed of having more people playing with me. I decided to give that young person the anniversary gift of hearing her music played by an orchestra.” On her latest album, she presents orchestral versions of eight tracks that first appeared on Mount A, her 2009 album Without Sinking, and Saman from 2014, as well as two newly written pieces. Guðnadóttir herself plays solo cello on the album performing with the Berlin German Symphony Orchestra led by Robert Ames.
