Featuring chromatic digeridoo, classical violin, flamenco guitar, analog sound design, orchestral strings, bamboo flute, melodia, tuned, untuned, and prepared piano, as well as a host of other sounds, the resultant score for The Galapagos Affair combines symphonic music with newly rendered electronic soundscapes. As a 1930s murder mystery unfolds, so too does the music, strange and alluring as the famous archipelago itself. 　　A composer who brings to her music feverish imagination, impeccable musicianship, complexity, unbridled joy, and fearlessness, the four-time Emmy award-winning Laura Karpman’s highly distinguished and stunningly versatile career spans the worlds of film, television, videogame, concert and theater music.
