I just saw Z for Zachariah (2015), and while the interior film score is pretty subdued, the end titles are wonderful. Heather McIntosh apparently hasn't hit it super-big yet, fame-wise, but I enjoyed what she did for the movie. Somber yet beautiful.

I had no idea this film score had been released on CD by Varese Sarabande until I saw a listing for it in a Sales email from SAE last week.
Having enjoyed the score within the film, I was about to build an order, with it in, until I spied an even cheaper copy on eBay for £8.
It inhabits that lo-fi/acoustic sound world I really dig anyway and hearing it on CD, it's really good.
Rustic, earthy, melancholy music that ably supports the gritty/tragic drama that unfolds onscreen, with a brooding ominosity in the strings, battling the occasional shafts of light from the harp, piano, organ and lighter strings.
Quite Nyman-esque at times, but with a fuller (maybe LAST OF THE MOHICANS*) flavour overall.
An unexpected pleasure.
Any other fans?
*certainly Track 25.
