Well, the score is done. Completed it yesterday morning.

I listened to the whole film with all the music in, and I only have a minor thing that bugged me, the rest was all either fine or fantastic.

So now it is time to finalize traveling arrangements, prepare all the music for the session, click tracks, visual aids for conducting, and practicing my conducting, I plan on doing a great job.

What struck me as I walked out of my studio after I was done this, was that these themes I have been living with for the past while are now on their own.

The themes were like friends after a while, like the characters in the film, and now it is done.

This is an experience I will remember forever, my first big score and one in which I wrote the kind of music I love to write.

Now it’s time for the last leg of the journey, the culmination of all this work: the recording with the Evergreen Orchestra in Taipei, January the 18 to the 25.
