Writing the score for this extraordinary film has been the most incredible experience of my career so far. Telling the true story of the magnificent Trudy Ederle has been an honour and privilege. This is the kind of film that made me want to become a composer.. so that maybe one day I could be part of something so magical. To be able to collaborate with such exceptionally talented people to bring her story to life has been a dream come true. Thank you so much @theacademy for this recognition, I am eternally grateful 🏊🏼♀️ Thank you @daisyridley @joachimronning @jerrybruckheimer @disneystudios @lornebalfe @timeritd @unanidhonghaile @samjsthompson @takacsnora @hilaryskewesmusic @whitebearpr
As the final day of voting for the ASCAP Awards is here, I am filled with immense gratitude. To be nominated, especially by my peers, is a true honor and makes this moment all the more meaningful. If you haven’t yet cast your vote, I would be deeply appreciative if you would consider my score for Young Woman and the Sea.🏊🏼♀️🏊🏼♀️🏊🏼♀️

For Your Awards Consideration Best Original Score – YOUNG WOMAN AND THE SEA By Amelia Warner “Set to a triumphal score by Amelia Warner, there’s a hint of Bruckheimer’s “Pirates of the Caribbean”-style jauntiness to the powerful orchestration that adds to the sense of melodrama at play.” – @latimes Listen to the soundtrack in its entirety on Spotify or wherever you stream your music.
