Within days of becoming Prime Minister of Great Britain, Winston Churchill (Gary Oldman) must face one of his most turbulent and defining trials: exploring a negotiated peace treaty with Nazi Germany, or standing firm to fight for the ideals, liberty and freedom of a nation. As the unstoppable Nazi forces roll across Western Europe and the threat of invasion is imminent, and with an unprepared public, a skeptical King, and his own party plotting against him, Churchill must withstand his darkest hour, rally a nation, and attempt to change the course of world history. (IMDB) Dario Marianelli and Joe Wright worked together on box office hit “Pride and Prejudice” (2005) and when Director Joe Wright heard Víkingur’s Glass interpretations, he immediately thought of him as the perfect pianist for Marianelli’s score. Víkingur Ólafsson is an established Deutsche Grammophon newcomer, signed to DG in 2016 and wowing audiences with his debut album Philip Glass - Piano Works since then. Víkingur is playing the music on this soundtrack, composed by Dario Marianelli (17 out of 19 tracks).
