Phantom Thread Soundtrack

Phantom Thread depicts a power struggle between dressmaker Reynolds Woodcock and a young waitress who he leads to London as his lover.

In keeping with the deepening and tumultuous power struggle that plays out, Greenwood’s orchestrations are sumptuous yet fragile, always laced with tension and melancholy.

The ex-BBC composer shows a lighter touch from

previous soundtracks

for a subtler neo-classical approach.
