In Night of Show, accomplished concert promoter Adam Wilkes joins music industry legends as they share behind-the-scenes stories about the pressures superstar artists faced when staging some of their biggest performances. Most Prince fans forget he was once in the wilderness after his 1980s heyday. He’d walked away from his record contract and had released a slew of albums that didn’t chart. Then, with John and Paul as promoters, he stages a major comeback.

Bonus: Behind the soundtrack for Corinna and The King

In this bonus episode of Corinna and the King, we invite you to discover the amazing original soundtrack for the series. This ambitious symphonic, cinematic and experimental musical work included the recording of more than 65 original tracks, in a process that ran right up until the release of the final episode of the series.

Alex García Amat, the composer and an executive producer for the series, explains why and how this soundtrack was made for this podcast in its English and Spanish versions. We'll learn about the creative process and listen to some of the tracks, as well as the first demos and the evolution of some of the songs. It’s a moving, detailed musical journey that takes us from the circus to magical realism; from light and fragility to darkness and threat. A movie soundtrack for a podcast.
