For composer Bryce Dessner, working on a film like Sing Sing was all about defying expectations in the score. Though the film takes place in a prison, the story itself avoids the usual stereotypes of violence to focus on a tale of rehabilitation. Dessner decided to focus on a sense of freedom for the score, even using opera as a jumping off point.

Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor When writer-director Rebecca Miller was playing back her latest film “She Came to Me,” she felt it was missing a compelling song.

The National Battles Back With Ninth Album, ‘First Two Pages of Frankenstein’: ‘We Needed to Lose Each Other and Find One Another Again’

Alex Swhear Matt Berninger felt paralyzed. The 52-year-old frontman for the National, one of the most enduring and influential indie rock bands of the 21st century, was battling a devastating bout of depression and writer’s block. “I didn’t want to write, didn’t want to do anything,” Berninger says over a Zoom call. “But the longer I didn’t [write], the harder it was to connect back to it… I hated everything I’d written; I hated the idea of trying to finish that thought.” As his problems persisted, they fueled a cycle of self-loathing that called into question Berninger’s entire persona. “I also had the sense of, have I turned myself into this misanthropic cliché that our music projects sometimes? I was a little self-disgusted.”
