DESCRIPTION

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Broadcast in 2011 by the BBC, the eight part series Human Planet featured jaw-dropping images that demonstrated mankind's relationship with nature across 80 different locations and covering the extremes of planet Earth. Integral to this ground-breaking natural history series is Nitin Sawhney's stunning orchestral score, up to 50 minutes of music for each episode and all written within a hectic two months schedule. Nitin's distinctive musical voice covers the whole spectrum of contemporary music as a producer, songwriter, DJ, multi-instrumentalist and orchestral composer. His impressive list of collaborations include working with Paul McCartney, Sting, A.R. Rahman, Brian Eno, Jeff Beck, Sinead O Connor, Jeff Beck and many more.

REVIEW
Scoring the BBC's Human Planet series was perhaps both my greatest privilege and greatest challenge. Despite that challenge, the breathtaking scenes of human co-existence with nature and determined resilience provided an inspiration beyond the boundaries of any musical soundtrack. The series itself is a true celebration of human diversity and deeply resonates with everything I believe in. --Nitin Sawhney
