Jekyll and Hyde

The live score to the hotly anticipated dance thriller ‘Jekyll & Hyde‘ was released on Air-Edel Records, featuring music by Tony-nominated, award-winning composer Grant Olding. It is available to download and stream across all digital platforms including Amazon, Spotify and iTunes.

Devised and directed by Olivier award-winning theatre choreographer Drew McOnie, ‘Jekyll & Hyde‘ re-imagines Robert Louis Stevenson’s sinister drama in an excitingly physical new dance production. The production opened at The Old Vic on 25 May 2016.

The challenge of creating a dance score with a split personality was the jumping-off point for the music of Jekyll & Hyde. It’s been enormous fun finding two distinct sound worlds and harmonic palettes that summed up Drew’s characters of Dr Jekyll – a wistfully romantic botanist and his dark, sexy, dangerous alter-ego Mr Hyde, which has created a score with such contrasts.
