Scott Walker follows his remarkable collaboration with Sunn O))) with this remarkable soundtrack to Brady Corbet’s directorial debut, Walker’s first score work since the Pola X soundtrack in 1999.
Partly inspired by Jean-Paul Sartre’s short story of the same name, ‘The Childhood of a Leader’ is a tense psychological drama tracing the formative years of a young boy and set against the backdrop of the 1919 Paris Peace Conference that led to the establishment of the Treaty of Versailles.
On ‘Childhood Of A Leader’ Scott Walker works with co-producer Peter Walsh, Mark Warman and an orchestra comprised of 46 string- and 16 brass-players.
