The Twilight<\/em> saga is one of the biggest movie franchies of the 21st century, made up of five box-office hits. Based on a series of young-adult novels<\/a><\/strong> by Stephanie Meyer, the series follows the romantic triangle between Bella Swan (a human), Edward Cullen (a vampire) and Jacob Black (a werewolf). The films have enjoyed renewed interest with the TikTok generation, thanks to the rise of the ‘romantasy’ genre: a blend of romance and fantasy popular in both novels and films. It’s not just the films themselves that have captured the public’s imagination, however. The soundtracks<\/a><\/strong> have helped launch bands and artists, with scores written by some of Hollywood’s top film composers. Here, we look into the music of the Twilight <\/em>universe, examining what it is that makes the Twilight <\/em>soundtrack so successful. <\/p> Debussy<\/a><\/strong>‘s Clair de lune <\/em>is featured in the first Twilight <\/em>film when Bella first visits Edward in his house and examines his extensive music collection. She asks what he is listening to, presses play on his sound system, and he answers, ‘Debussy’. <\/p> We named ‘Clair de lune’ as one of the best pieces of Debussy’s music for beginners<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>Classical music featured in the Twilight soundtrack<\/h2>
