Not sure about Shore (who I associate more with brooding stuff), but it’s one of the few times he’s gone oldfashioned in his music. Not quite Golden Age, but alluding to his father’s stylings.
Now that I’ve reached them, I have to give a shout-out to Newman’s wonderful Indian music in the three films HE NAMED ME MALALA, THE SECOND BEST EXOTIC MARIGOLD HOTEL and VICTORIA & ABDUL, which came out over a three-year period between 2015 and 2017. He was always very good at that sound. Some of his own floating, ethereal music that resonates so well with Indian “raga” music, I think.
