Matthew Sweet meets the British-born composer Harry Gregson-Williams for a retrospective on his career in film. He’s been a hugely successful figure in Hollywood film-scoring for the past two decades, with music for the Shrek franchise, The Chronicles of Narnia, as well as having scores for the films of Tony and Ridley Scott, Ben Affleck and the Aardman animations of Nick Park to his credit. In addition to Harry’s back catalogue, Matthew also explores the background and ideas in his recent score for the Disney live-action remake of Mulan.
