‘Succession’ Composer Nicholas Britell on the Season 4 Soundtrack: ‘This Score Represents the Culmination of My Musical Vision’

Twists and turns, double-dealing and death are just some of the themes at the heart of HBOs fourth and final season of Succession. With that, composer Nicholas Britell has released a 25-piece original soundtrack that accompanied the season, which will drop at midnight after Sundays series finale.

Among the cues are: Phone Call, the music piece that plays in the shocking third episode Connors Wedding as the Roy children, Kendall (Jeremy Strong,) Shiv (Sarah Snook) and Roman (Kieran Culkin) learn that family patriarch Logan Roy (Brian Cox) has died aboard the Waystar Royco plane, where Logan was flying with his executive team to Sweden.

Britell says, The score for Season 4 represents the culmination of my musical vision for Succession. With its depths of pathos and its simultaneous capacity for comic absurdity, Succession has presented me with a truly extraordinary story to underscore. He adds, The 25 pieces on this album are a final summary of my music and of the sound Ive created for the show.

Elsewhere, Britell incorporates choir. Heard in the music piece, With Open Eyes. The cue closes out the 90-minute finale.

The album launch also marks the launch of Britells new label, Lake George Music Group. It has long been a dream of mine to release music through my own label, and Im tremendously excited to have the final season of Succession as our labels first release.
