This score is highly idiosyncratic due to the fact that the composer use many types of instuments in an unusual way : this means that the composer using talented hapsichord and flute players to give fast and uptempo rhytms to the musical palette of the soundtrack in order to illustrate the uneasiness and tensions among Tony Blair and the members of the Royal Family and the British public, but he also using electronic devices, brasses and strings to give soft or powerful rhythms as accompaniment for the emotions of the main characters. This said, the Queen is recommended for those people who are open to hear unusual music.
