Bridgerton composer Kris Bowers made sure Anthony Bridgerton and Edwina Sharma’s first dance had an “alluring, almost darkness to it,” through his score.
Most readers now know this is a doomed relationship, as Anthony (Jonathan Bailey) and Edwina’s sister, Kate (Simone Ashley), fall in love. “The music has a darker element to it, and it is pretty far-stretched in terms of being a variation on Anthony and Kate’s theme,” the Oscar- and Emmy-nominated composer says of Anthony and Edwina’s first dance, in a new episode of The Hollywood Reporter‘s Behind the Screen. “This sets it up as if Edwina (Charithra Chandran) and Anthony are going to have then own theme, but as we learn later, their relationship is a bit more difficult in terms of Anthony’s connection with Kate. This sets up this possibly dangerous connection.”

“I definitely felt a lot of pressure going into season two to make sure that I lived up to what everyone was hoping for,” declares Justin Kamps about assuming the role of music supervisor on the second season of Netflix’s hit drama “Bridgerton.” The Regency era romance is known for its music, particularly its classical covers of modern pop hits, and Kamps is instrumental in not only choosing those songs, but also making sure that they support the themes of the show. Check out more of our exclusive video interview with Kamps above.
Kamps assumed the role of music supervisor this season, taking over for last year’s Emmy-nominated music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas. For Kamps, who counts Patsavas as a mentor, the opportunity to join “Bridgerton” was rather nerve-wracking. “I was very nervous taking over and wanting to live up to fan expectation,” he says. “The first season was...

Here's a shock for Bridgerton fans: The songs the actors dance to while filming those ballroom scenes aren't necessarily the same ones that end up in the show. "It'll work perfectly for filming on set," Bridgerton music supervisor Justin Kamps explained in an interview with E! News. "And then when it comes to working on the episode in post [production], suddenly, it becomes a totally different song." In fact, Justin said that Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball" is the only song to make it from filming to the episode's release. Otherwise, the background music is often turned into something "wildly different," he said. It's all part of a...

Harry Styles just announced that he has an album coming in May, but superfans might not have to wait as long to hear a new version of “Sign of the Times.” A string arrangement of Styles’ first single, originally released in 2017, appears in the frothy period drama “Bridgerton,” which premieres its second season on Netflix this Friday (March 25). The tune starts and stops a few times during a pivotal scene.
“The recording has a couple short pauses before blasting into this gorgeous big swell of strings at the end,” reveals Justin Kamps, music supervisor for “Bridgerton.” “Sometimes having stops and starts in the song helps our editors really land these dramatic reveals. When fans see the episode, they’ll realize why it was used in that way. All the swells and swirling strings are very deliberate and build to this perfect moment.”
The moment was a big coup for boutique publishing company and record label,...

“Bridgerton” glided to center stage when it premiered on Netflix in late 2021, and its classical quartet covers of pop hits captivated audiences as much as they gelled with the show’s modernized Regency-era landscape. Now, Season 2 will offer more of the same, with Capitol Records set to release a soundtrack and series covers — of artists like Harry Styles and Nirvana — March 25, the same day “Bridgerton” returns to Netflix.
Under music supervisor Justin Kamps and composer Kris Bowers, Vitamin String Quartet return with reimaginings of Nirvana’s “Stay Away” and Robyn’s “Dancing on My Own,” after previously covering songs like Ariana Grande’s “Thank U, Next” and Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy” in Season 1.
Other covers in Season 2 include Madonna’s “Material Girl,” Rihanna’s “Diamonds,” Alanis Morissette’s “You Oughta Know,” Miley Cyrus’ “Wrecking Ball,” and Harry Styles’ “Sign of the Times,” which Kamps previously admitted was the most...
