Premiere: John Murphy Debuts A Track From His ‘Les Miserables’ Mini-Series Score | Slash Film

The Les Miserables mini-series soundtrack comes from composer John Murphy, who sought to give the score an experimental vibe… The end result sounds unique, and not at all like the type of music you’d expect to hear in a Victor Hugo adaptation. – Chris Evangelista, Slash Film

Premiering today is the track, “Fantine’s Descent” by critically-acclaimed Composer John Murphy (Sunshine, Kick-Ass, Snatch), a cue from the forthcoming Les Misérables – Original Series Soundtrack! Listen to the full track now exclusively at Slash Film, ahead of the digital album release on May 2 via Lakeshore Records. See our previous announcement on Les Misérables.
