The Moonwalkers - Original Music By Anne Nikitin
The Original Orchestral Score composed by Anne Nikitin for THE MOONWALKERS: A JOURNEY WITH TOM HANKS at Lightroom. The composer’s rousing soundscape to this epic experience which offers a unique perspective on humankind’s past and future voyages to the moon, was performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at the iconic Abbey Road Studios. The show opened at London’s Lightroom on 6th December 2023 and will continue until 13th October 2024.
From Lightrooms’ remarkable space, almost identical in size to NASA’s Apollo Mission Control, audiences are transported to the lunar surface by spectacular NASA footage and photography remastered by Andy Saunders. The show, co-written by Hanks and double BAFTA-Nominated Christopher Riley and directed by 59 Productions Lysander Ashton and Nick Corrigan.
The score also features The London Bulgarian Choir with soloist Dessislava Stefanova (choir leader) and soloist Grace Davidson (soprano) along with Peter Gregson (electric cello), Richard Harwood (cello) and Tom Pigott-Smith (violin). On the genesis of this album, the composer says –
“I’ve been fascinated by space for as long as I can remember – as a child I’d stare at the night sky in awe and wonder and could proudly name the planets and their moons in order from the sun. So being asked to compose the music for The Moonwalkers was a dream come true.
I wanted to represent the moon in its various guises: sometimes ethereal and magnificent, at other times dark and mysterious. I also paid homage to popular music of the era, from the blues to prog rock. But mostly I wanted to enhance a show that celebrates human achievement and peace and hope for all mankind. The result was an epic and eclectic score featuring the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the London Bulgarian Choir recorded at Abbey Road Studios. In addition, I got to work with some of my favourite musicians on harmonica, Hammond organ, guitars, drums and electric cello. The score also features the angelic voice of Grace Davidson and the other-worldly vocals of Dessislava Stefanova, each of them portraying the various incarnations of the moon.”
