Cheerful Weather for the Wedding is a British romantic comedy about a young woman who gets cold feet on her wedding day, fearful she's about to marry the wrong man. The wonderful orchestral score for the film is composed by Michael Price, who co-wrote the highly popular Sherlock TV music with David Arnold and worked on many of his scores. Price has an impressive background as a music editor on the Lord of the Rings movies, Children of Men and Love Actually, and started out in the film music business as a music co-producer for the legendary Michael Kamen on scores such as X-Men, The Iron Giant and Event Horizon... Michael Price's score for Cheerful Weather for the Wedding contains numerous beautiful tracks. This is a soundtrack that manages to find the right balance between melancholy and uplifting segments, and it works incredibly well. There are also two folk tracks featuring Panjandrum, 'The Moon and Seven Stars' and 'Michael Turner's Waltz'. The album contains 14 tracks and has a running time of 30 min, 33 sec. While this may be a short score, there isn't a wasted track or moment. This is a romantic score that's well worth getting hold of. 9 Darren Rea |
