The documentary-maker Stephen Edwards’s most distinguished musical work is the score for his Requiem for My Mother (2017). The Requiem was premiered in the Vatican, and his award-winning television documentary, based on the premiere, was broadcast on the PBS network. It’s a breathtaking work, reminiscent of Duruflé but original and memorable.
Now Edwards, composer of nearly 100 film and television soundtracks, has another documentary in the making, entitled Syndrome K. It’s about a little-known story of World War II heroism, which as he put it, “captured my soul”.
