There's so many emotions and feelings to be felt in film music. From Bernstein to Goldsmith to Jarre to Williams to Shire to Horner to Rosza to Steiner to Barry. Whatever emotion I want to feel I can find it within a great film score. It's a beautiful thing and I love sharing it with my children.
May Elmer Bernstein and Maurice Jarre rest in peace. May their music live on especially for new generations of movie-goers, music-lovers and musicians.
No composer over the years has surpassed "To Kill a Mockingbird" like Mr. Bernstein in capturing the feelings of childhood and all of the innocence with his music. I can hear the first few notes of the piano and go back 40 years ago in time. Thank you, Elmer! May you rest in peace.
