The Testament of Ann Lee soundtrack: Full list of songs in Mona Fastvold's musical drama

For her epic musical drama The Testament of Ann Lee, writer-director Mona Fastvold recruited Oscar-winning composer Daniel Blumberg to forge the soundtrack, after his acclaimed work on her previous films, The Brutalist and The World to Come.

The astonishing film itself traces the life of the Manchester-born Ann Lee (Amanda Seyfried), the founding leader of the Shaker movement, a denomination of Christianity that prioritised celibacy, pacifism, community and equality, and whose worship was characterised by song and dance, which they believed was a medium to dispel sin and evil.

The earliest Shaker songs were composed in the 1780s, and included very few actual words until the 1800s, when the Shakers added text and wrote hymns and anthems.

Blumberg drew a large amount of inspiration from such Shakers hymns, of which there are thousands, and enlisted the likes of avant-garde improvisational singers Phil Minton, Maggie Nicols and Shelley Hirsch to help bring the 33 tracks to their final form. The soundtrack also features the vocals of Seyfried, Lewis Pullman, Thomasin McKenzie and other cast members.

Speaking of the soundtrack's formation, lead actress Seyfried explained: "I think [Daniel Blumberg] wanted to create some original music within the movie. At first, I think everybody’s a bit intimidated by that, because we were using real Shaker hymns that were written back from the 18th century on, and they’re beautiful, but they’re very simple.

"And he needed to create a world around it, and the world needed to flow in and out of these scenes, and it needed to feel cohesive and musical, but not too musical. It needed to feel organic."
