In this episode of Musicians vs the World, we talk with Adam Lukas and James Everingham, the incredibly creative composers behind the music to the BBC’s Frozen Planet II. We’re going to do a deep dive into the inspiration and composition techniques they used when creating their beautiful score and we’ll also chat about their experience collaborating with Norwegian singer, songwriter and record producer, Aurora in this project.
