Here’s a 3-minute edit of my music for The Holy Rosenbergs, a searing family drama by Ryan Craig which ran at the National Theatre in early 2011.

The starting point for the music was the traditional lament ‘Avinu Malkeinu’, which holds huge significance for the central character  (played by Henry Goodman), whose father used to sing it in synagogue ; the score (for 2 cellos, clarinet, viola & violin) plays around with the theme in all sorts of different ways.
