Thomas Newman Of Mice And Men (Music From The Original Ballet)

Thomas Newman – Of Mice and Men (Original Ballet Score)

From Academy Award-nominated and Grammy Award-winning composer Thomas Newman (The Shawshank Redemption, American Beauty, Skyfall) comes his first-ever original ballet score, inspired by John Steinbeck’s classic novel, Of Mice and Men. Composed for The Joffrey Ballet’s critically acclaimed 2022 production, choreographed by Cathy Marston, this powerful score brings Steinbeck’s themes of loneliness, struggle, and hope to life through hauntingly beautiful orchestration.

Newman’s compositions evoke the aspiration for a better life, even in the face of immense hardship, making this a must-have for fans of classical, film, and ballet music.
