LINER NOTES BY PATRICK DOYLE
"The three principal thematic ideas upon which the score is built are those that reflect the characters of Claudius, Ophelia and, of course, Hamlet. The simple, childlike Ophelia melody (first used in track 12) came to me eventually after watching Kate Winslet on the set and being extremely moved by the scene in which Ophelia reads Hamlet's letter to her. Claudius' theme (stated in its entirety in the Confessional scene - end of track 14) takes the score much further into the realm of 20th century harmonica; in addition, to compliment Claudius' dark, troubled soul, I decided on a canon as the most dramatic musical devices with which to create a feeling of continued restlessness. This canonic theme ultimately provides the basis for most of the driving material and serves as a musical means of linking Hamlet, his father and Claudius. Hamlet's theme proved to be the most daunting and elusive, the score could not develop until this materialised. I lost count on how many times I stared helplessly at the last scene before the "simple" theme reared its salvatory head.
