The music for the historical fiction-romance streaming television series Bridgerton, on the novel series of the same name by Julia Quinn, features an orchestral and classical score composed and produced by Kris Bowers and orchestral covers of contemporary popular music,[1][2] performed by Vitamin String Quartet, Dunno and Bowers himself.
"[3] The director and executive producer Julie Anne Robinson said that she was inspired from the use of classic rock songs in A Knight's Tale (2001).
[7][8] He tried with all the orchestral elements sound like they had been sampled and used it like producing hip hop or pop music, and followed the same for the ball scenes, but felt it did not work.
While zeroing Simon and Daphne's theme, he used a ravel piano which wanted to be classical but slightly modern, which made sense as the story followed the younger generation of that period.
"[6]The theme for Lady Whistledown (voiced by Julie Andrews) was described as "harder to crack" as every time writing, it felt too proper and did not "have the bite and sass and edge".
Bridgerton: Season 1 (Covers from the Netflix Series) featured selections of songs from Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, Shawn Mendes, Taylor Swift, Celeste and Maroon 5, picked by the music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas.
[9] Some of the covers featured artists from Nirvana, Madonna, Rihanna, Miley Cyrus, Harry Styles, Pink, Robyn, Alanis Morissette and Lata Mangeshkar.
