Outlander Se06

The Outlander series is a sequence of multi-genre novels and shorter works written by Diana Gabaldon that feature elements of historical fiction, romance, mystery, adventure and science fiction/fantasy.

Primetime Emmy Award winner Bear McCreary is considered to be one of the most versatile composers in the industry. Outlander has been nominated for five Golden Globes and McCreary has received an Emmy Award nomination for ‘Outstanding Music Composition for a Series’. McCreary is recognized for his soundtrack for the hit film 10 Cloverfield Lane. For his score, Time Magazine raved “The movie’s finest feature may be Bear McCreary’s playfully malicious score, a beehive of worried-sounding strings that channels the spirit of Hitchcock fave Bernard Herrmann.”

During the reign of the Vikings, Kainan, a man from a far-off world, crash lands on Earth, bringing with him an alien predator known as the Moorwen. Though both man and monster are seeking revenge for violence committed against them, Kainan leads the alliance to kill the Moorwen by fusing his advanced technology with the Viking's Iron Age weaponry.

Score composer Bear McCreary was born in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on February 17, 1979, the son of the writer Laura Kalpakian. He obtained degrees in composition and recording arts from the Thornton School of Music at the University of Southern California and became a protégé of film composer Elmer Bernstein, for whom he reconstructed and reorchestrated the score for the 1963 film Kings of the Sun, resulting in a new recording of the music.
