Silva Screen Records presents the Original Soundtrack to the new 6 part hit series LUDWIG currently on BBC 1 and BBC iPlayer.
Reclusive puzzle-setter John ‘Ludwig’ Taylor (David Mitchell) sees his life of solitude turned upside down when his identical twin brother, James, disappears without a trace. In a quest to track James down and bring him home, Ludwig assumes his brother’s identity - but by taking over every aspect of James’s life, Ludwig is forced to confront his own issues. Unlike Ludwig, James is no hermit. Far from it, in fact. He’s a family man who also just happens to be DCI of Cambridge's busy major investigations team.
For Ludwig, these are big shoes to fill, and playing dad to a ready-made family proves every bit as challenging as tackling the grisliest of crime scenes. But Ludwig has one big advantage: his ability to see the world in puzzle form. John may be a master of all things cryptic, but can he crack the biggest puzzle of his life?
The jaunty Ludwig theme kicks off a small but perfectly formed collection of key cues from the series with nods to Beethoven along the way.
Composers Nathan Klein and Finn Keane were happy to dip their toes into the world of Beethoven -
“From the moment Mark Brotherhood incorporated Beethoven’s 9th as a key element to John’s backstory, and of course the origin of his pen name ‘Ludwig’, scoring the series became a gift to any composer. This musical thread felt so exciting and compelled us to compose an original score using fragments of Beethoven as inspiration.
We feel very lucky to have been given the opportunity to work on Ludwig in this way and loved the excuse to sift through some of our favourite pieces of Beethoven, including the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 9th Symphonies, the ‘Moonlight’ and ‘Tempest’ Sonatas, 'Für Elise' and the Coriolan Overture.”
Nathan Klein is a British-American Composer making his mark crafting distinctive scores for the likes of Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime, the BBC, Channel 4, ITV and Sky, as well as scoring feature films that have won awards at major festivals and composing the theme for the chart topping podcast ‘The Rest Is History’.
Finn Keane is a writer and producer from London. He had been part of London-based collective 'PC Music' since 2013 and in 2015 he started writing and producing for other artists. Finn's most recent cut has been Rita Ora's Top 5 single and Number 1 Radio AirPlay track 'Let You Love Me', for which he co-wrote and co-produced. His other notable cuts have been with Charli XCX, co-writing and producing multiple songs including: '3AM (Pull Up)' feat MØ, 'Emotional' and 'Backseat' feat. Carly Rae Jepsen.
