Soundtrack for 'The View' from 'The Shard'

As many of you already know, London's The Shard is a fantastic new skyscraper in London, standing 309.6 metres tall making it the tallest completed building in the EU. 

The View from The Shard, the new premium visitor attraction at the pinnacle of The Shard, has commissioned the LSO and David Mitcham (composer) to record a soundtrack for The View at Abbey Road Studios. 

David Mitcham says: "The Shard is London's newest landmark and is located in one of the oldest parts of the capital. Witnessing The View from The Shard gives a unique perspective on London, its history, its future and its people. The sheer scale and variety contained within the view is quite overwhelming. It is also so exciting to be this high up and feels a real privilege to see London this way. My score seeks to capture the sense of rising above it all and the excitement and euphoria of being suspended right on top of London with the colourful story and ceaseless energy of one of the world's greatest cities flowing on like a mighty river below."

(David Mitcham is one of Britain's leading composers for film and TV, Ivor and Emmy award nominated.)
