Ripper Street nominated for Best TV Soundtrack

– Damian Michael Barcroft –

Dominik Scherrer’s stunning and innovative music score for Ripper Street has been nominated for the prestigious Ivor Novello Award for Best Television soundtrack. This is possibly one of the biggest awards for the soundtrack industry.

I spoke to Dominik earlier and he is “very pleased that there is recognition for such an unusual soundtrack”. My full and exclusive interview with the composer will be posted soon on this website.

The Ivors celebrate, honour and reward excellence in songwriting and composing. They are presented by BASCA and judged by the writing community.

The 59th Ivor Novello Awards will take place on Thursday 22 May 2014 at Grosvenor House, London.

Congratulations Dominik and the very best of luck!
