Psalm21

Although MovieScore Media and Screamworks Records hail from Sweden, we rarely release music from our own backyard - but here is a rare example of a Swedish horror score that stands out as a truly exciting genre work second to none of the better known Hollywood musical chillers. Psalm 21, a stylish psychological horror film with an abundance of religious motifs, standout visual effects and an eerie atmosphere, features a colourful orchestral score by Christer Christensson, a composer who wrote a lot of music for stage plays before writing this, his first full-blown feature film score. It's an impressive debut where a lot of experimental techniques and ideas are used throughout the score but where the backbone of the music is thematic and melodic. One of the stand-out cues is called "Adagio: Words of Love", where the strings build slowly and with great passion into the grand finale of the score. First edition of the CD is limited to 500 copies.
