Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Maranelli's score for Jane Eyre is aided immeasurably by Jack Liebeck, whose sporadic flourishes of wild Gypsy violin lend a windswept, romantic character to tracks like "Wandering Jane" and "Waiting for Mr Rochester", in which the rippling piano motif cranks the tension inexorably up.

But there's a pleasing unity to the score, a sensibility which links the brooding warmth of "Mrs Reed Is Not Quite Finished" and the chill shiver of strings that concludes "Jane's Escape". Particularly effective is "The End of Childhood", in which the harp, strings and piano are tinted with hints of woodwind and vocal in the upper register, like harbingers of complex adulthood.
