Info for A Prayer To The Dynamo / Suites from Sicario & The Theory of Everything
Twice Oscar-nominated and winner of many awards for his film scores for "Arrival", "Sicario" or "The Theory of Everything", Icelandic composer Jóhann Jóhannsson (1969-2018) was known for his innovative and unique blend of classical and electronic elements. His original, profound and moving works for film and stage brought him worldwide fame and he is considered one of the most acclaimed film composers of the last decade.
"Jóhannsson's music leaves the impression of coming from a time capsule from a distant planet that is a mirror image of our own. His own absence now adds even more mystery and magic to his unique sound world." (Gramophone)
Resembling a lost symphony, the monumental orchestral work A Prayer to the Dynamo was inspired by Jóhannsson's great fascination with technology, especially the sound recordings of electrical equipment and generators he made at the Elliðaár power station in Iceland, which are deeply interwoven with the orchestral sound.
Deutsche Grammophon now releases the world premiere recording of his outstanding orchestral work, recorded by the Icelandic Symphony Orchestra conducted by Daníel Bjarnason. The album also includes two suites from Jóhannsson's soundtracks for "Sicario" and "The Discovery of Infinity".
