Who is the composer for Severance season 2?
Theodore Shapiro is the composer for Severance season 2. He also worked on season 1 of the show and won an Emmy for Outstanding Music Composition for a Series/Dramatic Score in 2022.
Alongside Severance season 2 using existing songs to create the atmosphere in its episodes, the series has a distinctive score.
Shapiro previously told Gold Derby of his score: "In this show, we worked with such a minimal palate.
"A lot of times, what can work best in terms of creepiness is just utter simplicity. Sometimes just a few notes on the piano are enough to be scarier than a 90-piece orchestra doing crazy stuff.
"I love shows or films that work with a minimal palate like that, so that was a great gift to be able to play in that kind of a sandbox.”
Severance season 1 soundtrack
The Severance season 1 score was released as an album in 2022. You can find it on Spotify and on Apple Music.
