I always like an angelic voice in film music and “A cure for wellness” benefits from it.“This track opens with ‘Hannah’s Theme,’ a dangerous lullaby, deceptive in its innocence, that weaves its inevitable web throughout the movie, promising absolution,” says Wallfisch about the track. “About halfway through the track, this evolves into the other main theme of the score, ‘Volmer’s Theme,’ a darkly chromatic melody that never resolves, endlessly searching in vain for its harmonic center, its home. It’s an examination of the ‘dark spot on the X-Ray of our conscience.’ as Gore Verbinski puts it.”Gore Verbinski describes Benjamin Wallfisch as “the progeny of musical genius” and that he has the unique ability “to take abstract ideas and render them sonically.”
