Jazz musicians Tom Skinner from the Sons of Kemet, trumpeter Byron Wallen, pianist Alexander Hawkins and bassist John Edwards are among the ensemble playing Jonny Greenwood's dazzling score for new film Spencer. Check out the mainly baroque in nature soundtrack above. (Greenwood in the past included Skinner and his Sons of Kemet leader Shabaka Hutchings on his score for The Master.) 'Delusion/Miracle' on the score is very free with Edwards tremendously wiry and on edge. Check Hawkins and Edwards on Evan Parker's 5-star instant classic All Knavery and Collusion. Wallen delivered what to marlbank was the best UK jazz release of 2020 Portrait: Reflections on Belonging.
