Yellowstone wouldn’t be complete without the sweeping orchestral sounds that open each episode. And naturally, it was all Taylor Sheridan’s idea to make the title sequences sound big and dramatic, said composer Brian Tyler, who joined his colleague Breton Vivian at Deadline’s Sound & Screen event that focused on the big of both the Paramount Network drama and the Paramount+ prequel 1923.
“He was writing Yellowstone and was thinking that he wanted to do very cinematic kind of approach. He wanted orchestral music and he wanted something very emotional that explored the dark side too, that which reflects dynamically against the beauty,” Tyler said. “It’s like where tragedy is beauty and you understand one because of the other. So I got together with him and, you know, he has his cowboy boots on and everything and … he’s amazing. We just started talking about music and … just understanding the story. And then all of a sudden I found myself writing that first piece from the screenplay. And the Yellowstone theme became that.”
Vivian brought an eclectic background to his composition for 1923, the Yellowstone prequel. The English-Australian composer used to play in punk rock bands in the UK.
“I think that style of music sort of lends well to this ‘cuz … you’re sort of playing a cello like a guitar or just trying to destroy instruments in a way that might feel a bit more rugged and cowboy and Western,” Vivian said.
“It’s true,” added Tyler. “When I met Taylor, I was saying, ‘I don’t think we should do … what Hollywood thinks what a Western is musically.’ I got really interested in what the music of what we know as the West, which is immigrants coming over, people that are cast-offs looking for a better home.

Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor If anyone knows the musical world of the “Fast and Furious” franchise, it’s composer Brian Tyler. Over the years, he’s created themes and cues for Dom (Vin Diesel), Letty (Michelle Rodriguez), Cipher (Charlize Theron), and with “Fast X” he gets to dabble with Jason Momoa’s brilliant baddie, Dante. “Instead of creating a dark energy theme, I went for alluring,” Tyler says. In the film, Dante seeks to avenge his father’s death, Hernan Reyes (Joaquim de Almeida) from 2011’s “Fast Five.” Dante lures the Fast Family to Rome, which leads to an action-packed chase through the cobbled streets of the Eternal City as Dom, Letty and their crew attempt to stop Dante from blowing up the Vatican. “Dante is charming and he makes you laugh. So, I used high strings such as the harp, and then we get into bass music with modern instruments,” says Tyler. “It gives you this feeling that you can’t look away. There’s a sense [in his music] of empathizing with him, and why he becomes this villain.”
