New release: EUROPE: ONE CONTINENT - FIVE WORLDS (Christian Heschl & Alex Komlew)
Original score from the 2025 documentary mini-series produced by Light & Shadow.
THE STORY: From the icy desert of Svalbard to the sun-kissed Mediterranean, this six-part wildlife series explores Europe’s most important and fascinating habitats and meets their most remarkable wild inhabitants. Blue whales, polar bears, and soaring golden eagles star alongside rarely seen marvels such as the rare Persian leopards. Packed with spectacular imagery and new-to-science behaviour, Europe is one of the most ambitious wildlife series ever made.
THE SCORE: “Over three years in the making, with more than 1,000 days of filming across 30 countries, the series demanded a score as diverse, powerful, and nuanced as the continent itself. Spanning nearly six hours of footage, the resulting four hours of original music blend lush orchestral grandeur with modern electronic textures, reflecting Europe’s breathtaking contrasts—from the serene majesty of its mountain ranges to the raw, elemental energy of volcanoes and fire. Each piece captures the continent’s emotional and geographical depth, uniting nature and storytelling in sound. Recorded with world-class musicians, the majestic main theme serves as the emotional centerpiece—a musical celebration of Europe’s unity in diversity.” – Christian Heschl & Alex Komlew
