Conclave [CD]

Mutant is proud to present, in collaboration with Back Lot Music and Focus Features, the first-ever physical release of the Oscar®-winning composer Volker Bertelmann’s score for Edgar Berger’s *Conclave*. *Conclave*, the follow-up to Berger and Bertelmann’s award-winning 2022 collaboration *All Quiet on the Western Front*, follows the gripping events behind closed doors surrounding the Catholic Church’s election of a new pope. Unique rituals, dark secrets, betrayal, and political manipulation—*Conclave* holds up a gilded mirror to the modern democratic process.

“Bertelmann is a master at turning up the heat—and this score brings the tension to a boil,” says Mutant co-founder Mo Shafeek. “The recurring main theme is captivating and melodic. The strings screech in a swirling stereo sound and waver like the fragile loyalties between cardinals, making every plot twist even more intriguing. It’s a triumphant follow-up to his award-winning modern classic.”
