Lakeshore Records has released G20
—Original Motion Picture Soundtrack digitally featuring music by Joseph Trapanese (The Witcher). Trapanese utilizes taut synths and soaring orchestra to convey the tension of the dramatic thriller. The film directed by Patricia Riggen and starring Viola Davis is now streaming worldwide on Prime Video.
When the G20 summit comes under siege, U.S. President Danielle Sutton (Academy Award winner Viola Davis) becomes the number one target. After evading capture by the attackers, she must outsmart the enemy to protect her family, defend her country and safeguard world leaders in this action-packed thrill ride.
Notes Trapanese: “I’m thrilled to share the score for G20 with you. Director Patricia Riggen was incredibly generous with her time and guidance, helping me find the musical voice of the exciting and inspired film she’s crafted. Working alongside South Africa’s own Mzansi Youth Choir on the final track was especially rewarding, bringing a genuine warmth and joy that perfectly complements the conclusion of our film and soundtrack. I’m proud of what we’ve created together and grateful to producer Andrew Lazar and the teams at Amazon and MRC for their support and trust in the creative process.”
