Just prior to the release of the second season of Netflix’s hit drama series Bridgerton, the list of songs that the series will feature as orchestral covers has been revealed.
One of the most notable features of Bridgerton’s first season was its blend of orchestral covers of contemporary popular music with more traditional music. Tracks include Ariana Grande’s Thank U, Next, Maroon 5’s Girls Like You, Shawn Mendes’ In My Blood, and Billie Eilish’s Bad Guy, largely featured in many of the show’s ballroom scenes. Covers were adapted by Italian arranger Duomo and Vitamin String Quartet.
Now, with the show’s second season arriving at the end of the month, Chris Van Dusen has revealed what parts will be featured in the new series. While the first season used mostly contemporary pop songs, the situation for the second season seems to be a little different.
There are some pretty surprising options and a wider mix of arrangers for this new season. Speaking about his selections, Van Dusen told the official Netflix blog: “I chose all of these songs for very specific reasons. Each one is incredibly powerful and deeply emotional in its own particular way. I always try many different songs for any scene. Before I find the perfect one to use.” I couldn’t be more excited for our playlist this season.”
