Bryce Dessner Scoring Rebecca Miller's ‘She Came To Me’

The soundtrack for the film was born from an “intimate process” of collaboration, according to Miller. Typically, film composers are brought in as part of the post-production stage. In this case, Dessner was invited to work on the film before shooting began and worked closely with Miller from the very beginning. This was essential given that the soundtrack incorporates two on-screen operas, both integral to the film’s narrative.

Dessner cited She Came to Me as “one of the most rewarding and creative experiences I have had”. He explained that the partnership allowed him to “make the music that I wanted to make, and so it’s the first film where the music really resembles my music for the concert hall.”

“The collaborative nature of film is what's so exciting. I can write a book by myself but with this film, I was able to work with Bryce’s brilliance. There was a challenge channel between us, and we shared in each other’s creativity," adds Miller.
