ABOUT:

Nils Frahm has always said that he’s just waiting for something real special when being asked if he would ever score the music for a film. And that’s exactly what German director Sebastian Schipper presented to him with his one-take feature ‘Victoria’. Filmed in Berlin, Victoria’s plot sees a runaway party girl, who's asked by three friendly men to join them as they hit the town, but their wild night of partying suddenly turns into a bank robbery as the music changes from techno to subdued piano sounds.

For the recording session at Studio P4 in Berlin, Frahm enlisted the help of long-time collaborator and cellist Anne Müller, violist Viktor Orri Árnason and ambient artist Erik K. Skodvin of Deaf Center on guitar.

‘Victoria’ won the Berlinale Film Festival prize for Best Cinematography and has also received seven nominations including Best Soundtrack for the Deutscher Filmpreis – Germany’s highest movie award, and will be released in cinemas across Germany on June 11th with plans to release it in the UK and other countries soon.

This is an inspiring piece we made in 2 hours on 5.04.25 with players from London Symphony Orchestra and our own community musicians. We had around 30 people in the circle including 13 young people, and members of our social-prescribing community group. Ages in the room were from 7-70!

The piece was inspired by Shostakovich, who was known for secretly putting messages in his music (e.g. his own name) in musical form. 

We asked the group what messages they would like to say to the world, and the two that were used to create the music were 'save the wildlife' and 'wash away bad gasses'. You can also hear everyone improvising their name rhythmically in part of the piece.

See if you can hear these messages in the music!
