Carlos Rafael Rivera's score music is a reliable conduit of shivers and chills. The Emmy and Grammy winning composer's signature graceful style has amplified the drama of shows like The Queen's Gambit, Hacks, and Godless and his passage through the rigors and rewards of academia have made him a true student and teacher of his craft. You might be surprised how much of this goes out the window in favor of instinct when it's time to tell a story.
