To keep 2022 off to a strong start, the great composer Marcelo Zarvos joins me for a quick chat! Marcelo recently scored the newly released film A Journal for Jordan, directed by Denzel Washington and starring Michael B. Jordan. We discuss his work on the film, some early Brazilian rock and metal, and what it’s like working with Denzel.

It’s a lovely, intimate score that manages to balance tragedy and love, always staying true to the drama that forms the heart of the film.

A Journal for Jordan is currently in theaters and Marcelo’s score, as well as many of his works over the years, is available on all major platforms. You can also find out more about Marcelo by visiting his website.
