Joby Talbot scores Sing
Posted on December 21, 2016 by Dan Goldwasser
Earlier this summer, composer Joby Talbot recorded his score to the new Universal Studios/Illumination animated feature, Sing. Directed by Garth Jennings (The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy) the film’s scoring session took place at the Newman Scoring Stage at Fox Studios, and we’re delighted to share our exclusive photos from the scoring sessions with our readers!

Music supervisor Jojo Villanueva was also present, and everyone was having a great time listening to the big swinging music performed out on the stage.
