La Dispute - Yann Tiersen
Since hearing "La Valse D'Amelie" on the streets last week, I had been on a sort of Amelie soundtrack binge. Yann Tiersen is a dynamic composer, his music marked by being able to make compositions using a minimal amount of instruments and having them sound full and flowing. This is best demonstrated by the whole soundtrack of Amelie, whose instrumentation throughout the album only used accordion, piano, clarinet, and every now and then vibes, a glockenspiel, and even a typewriter.
