Jonny Greenwood's Academy Award–nominated score to Paul Thomas Anderson's Phantom Thread is now available on CD, following its digital release earlier this year and ahead of the double-LP vinyl release on April 20. "This is startlingly expansive music," says the Guardian's Bim Adewunmi, "liable to make the listener believe they can leap buildings in a single bound, and when the strings sweep in, in the middle of 'House of Woodcock,' it’s all I can do to remain tethered to the Earth." IndieWire calls it "a masterpiece," the year's best score and one of the century's best as well.

Laurie Anderson and Kronos Quartet's first collaboration, Landfall, due February 16, is streaming in full till then as an NPR First Listen. In the piece, inspired by Anderson's experience of Hurricane Sandy, "she doesn't revisit the storm so much as ruminate—sometimes with dry wit—on the idea of how we handle loss," says NPR's Tom Huizenga. "With a dream-like blend of electronics, acoustic instruments, high-tech software and voice overs, she searches for meaning in the mystery of it all."

"I immediately got completely kidnapped by the musical world of John Adams," filmmaker Luca Guadagnino tells Pitchfork.

All of that can now be heard here via new Nonesuch playlists on Spotify and Apple Music.

Laurie Anderson and Kronos Quartet have shared a fourth track from their forthcoming album, Landfall: "CNN Predicts a Monster Storm." The video for the song premiered via The Quietus, which spoke with Anderson and Kronos's David Harrington about this "first recording collaboration between two of contemporary music’s most renowned figures."

Steve Reich's Pulse / Quartet is now available on CD and digitally, with the vinyl to come on March 30. Pulse is performed by the International Contemporary Ensemble, and Quartet is played by the Colin Currie Group. The Los Angeles Times notes the "lyricism, gorgeous instrumental textures and affecting harmonies" of Pulse, and the New York Times says of Quartet: "Written for two vibraphones and two pianos, Quartet is Mr. Reich's first piece for those two instruments alone, and the combination is ingenious and seductive, and deployed with subtle craftsmanship."

IndieWire has published its list of The 25 Best Movie Scores of the 21st Century, including five for which Nonesuch released the soundtrack: Philip Glass's score to Stephen Daldry's 2002 film The Hours; Clint Mansell's for Darren Aronofsky's 2006 film The Fountain, performed by Kronos Quartet and Mogwai; and three scores to Paul Thomas Anderson films—Jon Brion's for 2002's Punch-Drunk Love, and Jonny Greenwood's for 2007's There Will Be Blood and the just-released Phantom Thread. IndieWire says "the last 18 years have given us some of the most memorable music ever written for the movies."

Paul Thomas Anderson's new feature film, Phantom Thread, which opened in US theaters in January to rave reviews and six Oscar nominations, opens in theaters in the UK (where it is up for four BAFTAs), Australia, and Europe.

Phantom Thread earns five-star reviews from the Guardian ("such pure delicious pleasure in this film"), Financial Times ("mesmerising ... [Anderson] gets everything right here"), and Daily Express ("an audacious, spellbinding slice of storytelling").
