Episode: In The Box E29: Hildur Guðnadóttir: Scoring The Bride
Description: Icelandic composer Hildur Guðnadóttir went from releasing indie-classical solo cello albums, to becoming an awards-magnet film composer, with BAFTAs, GRAMMYs, and an Academy Award for her score to the Joaquin Phoenix-starring Joker to her name. She calls 2026 her ‘monster’ year, which has seen her score 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple and the Maggie Gyllenhaal-directed The Bride. She chats to Headliner about working on these idiosyncratic films back to back, her long-awaited upcoming return to the stage this year, and why Cubase is key to her work.
