Can I just give a huge mention to the composer of the music for house of the dragon and game of thrones.
I feel the programmes would not have had such a huge impact without his fantistic mesmerising music.
I think he has a real skill for bringing the whole series to life and making us feel so many emotions.
I just wanted to mention him as a lot of the composers get overlooked and they are an integral part of the show

I think they could have redone the music a bit. What comes to mind is something like they did in The Wire, where the theme song was the same song every season but in a different musical style, which i think would have worked well to differentiate it a bit more from GOT.

No I am glad he used game of thrones music it is most fitting. The incidental music is what is most brilliant, you are watching and are nit even aware hiw the music is setting the scene

Enjoyed his work even more after Pacific Rim, which came out after a couple of seasons of Game of Thrones had aired and was a totally different direction.

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out moreGame of Thones theme was pleasant and kind of dramatic, agree it fitted well.
Fine that it carries over well for House of the Dragon.
Often, within many a film and TV series these days, the music drones and spoils the flow of dialogue.
But found both in Game of Thrones and now House of the Dragon, the mix has worked well.
