DESCRIPTION: This week we’re tickling the ivories with Joe Kraemer, the composer for “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation.” In this episode, we talk about his relationship with the original series, how he became attached to the movie, his approach to the score for "Rogue Nation" (plus his general philosophy on film music) and the making of the opera sequence (which he was on set for). It hits all the right notes. Released June 12th, 2020.
