Sorry but I don't know the titles of any of the music. That part was applied by the sound mixer when the film was edited.

Unbelievable journey you undertook. As an artist, I know what kind of spiritual transformation this created in you over the course of four months of creation, especially as it was a faithful recreation of a great artist's work. Bravo for a job well done!

Well said! A similar line of thinking is gaining favor in the world of workplace management - more and more people are realizing that tight schedules and a desire for maximum productivity are indeed crippling our ability to bring out and realize the extraordinary. Your piece is a truly remarkable achievement.
