Personal Quote:
The mood of a film dictates a certain sound in my head and that is what I try and connect with right away, way before I'm writing melodies or times or anything like that. I'm trying to find an orchestration for the film that says what I want it to say musically. See more »Trivia:
Wrote and conducted a special medley at the World Premiere of 'Titanic 3D' at the Royal Albert Hall, London. See more »Trademark:
Frequently uses a chorus or soloist (e.g. Glory (1989), Titanic (1997), A Beautiful Mind (2001)). See more »Star Sign:
