Composing : What does music mean to you? by James Holzrichter

To me(not to sound too far in left field)music is a way to manifest my feelings in an art form for the world to observe........yeah I know.

Well, what I love about film music is that it has the ability to be a sort of commentary that (to me) speaks louder than straight orchestral music, since it is coupled with a visual element. I guess going off of what Jamie said a little bit, and also talking in circles, I think film music has the ability to help the audience make observations about the world or certain ideas, and maybe change their perspective on it. Hey Jamie, do you feel a little less in the left field now? :P

You are awesome Brandi.

I write music to tell a story and to take my audience on a journey. Sometimes the music is in center stage - other time is merely supports another artform (which hopefully accomplishes the story and journey).

I'm getting a pretty awesome vibe from you as well, Jamie. :D

Tone down the awesomeness....... Oh who am I kidding you are all awesome.

You can never have too much awesome. Keep it flowing, guys! :D

Soul of everything.

Tell the story through music; make them care and make them feel.

I love music. I'm told sometimes I use it too much in editing. But then again, music lovers love my cuts. I just love music.
