Now that Tim Fehling's score has been selected as the winner of the Film Score Project, we are in the process of preparing for the upcoming recording session.
The recording session will take place on Wednesday, June 5, 2013 from 3:00 to 5:00 pm at 2nd Story Sound (see photo above) on Manhattan's Lower East Side. 2nd story is a studio with a specific expertise in recording sound for film and television.
+ LEARN MORE ABOUT THE RECORDING SESSION
We have reviewed all 36 submissions to the Film Score Project and are pleased to announce the score selected for a professional recording by an ensemble in New York City.
The winning score for The Juggler was composed by
Tim Fehling of Madison, Wisconsin.
In his comments on Tim’s score, guest judge Jeff Peters says:
This piece has one of the more unique voices of the finalists. The complexity of the rhythmic alignments makes for an interesting and fun tone that matches the art of juggling quite well. It sounds like what is going on inside of a juggler's head.
As a whole, the connection between the music and film is very strong and precisely coordinated. Most of all, the piece is exactly what the tempo description says - “Bouncy and Fun”.
We will be sending the panelists comments to all of the composers who submitted a score. These comments will be sent directly to the composers through their Musical Exchange message box.

She reminds me of KT Tunstall...but, evolved haha.
Comment by Jonathon Hampton on March 27, 2012 at 3:12pm Talk about composing with multimedia, check out this jam by Kimbra, looping and layering her own voice several times over!
Comment by Pamela Soria Sánchez on March 24, 2012 at 1:02am Thanks for sharing these videos Christopher! They are interesting. Each composer has its particular vision to create music and their particular interests to get inspiration from...the funny thing is that both perspectives end talking about communication in a way...
Greetings!
Comment by Christopher Amos on March 23, 2012 at 12:51pm I'm happy to share another recent Carnegie Hall interview, this time with composer and singer-songwriter Gabriel Kahane whose work Crane Palimpsest received its world premiere last night at Carnegie Hall with American Composers Orchestra. Kahane explains his use of the Brooklyn Bridge as connective tissue in this work, juxtaposing classical and pop-based musical languages. You can read more about it on the Carnegie Hall Blog
Comment by LUCAS LEDE CACERES on March 18, 2012 at 3:00pm Dear all, I would like to share that development of this educative project has been a very enriching experience for me and my students, we are very grateful to all the team for letting us to participate.
Just to clarify that I misunderstood Paola's previous post (February 25th) where she said in spanish that she would come to Musical Exchange to DF in March, so I thought she was actually traveling to Mexico City. I realized that this is not the case, hehe.
Although this program is over, I would like to explore with you guys if it is possible to have one more chat session (in spanish may be) to give the students the chance to share their experiences, they are highly motivated to do it.
Please let me know your thoughts on this. Best.
Comment by Christopher Amos on March 15, 2012 at 12:32pm Lucas, thanks for your comment. We are really impressed with all the work that you posted from your classes!

Comment by LUCAS LEDE CACERES on March 14, 2012 at 11:54pm Hi Christopher! It's really interesting, I'll love watching and listening! Many Greetings.
Comment by Christopher Amos on March 14, 2012 at 2:46pm Hi, composers and creative artists. I thought you might enjoy this video from composer Mason Bates, in which he talks about how his piece "Mass Transmission" draws on early radio history and the link between Holland and Java. The piece is featured in the March 29, 2012, American Mavericks concert with Michael Tilson Thomas, members of the San Francisco Symphony, and guests at Carnegie Hall. You can read more on the Carnegie Hall Blog.

I’m very pleased to greet you and let you know that we have been very involved in the multimedia composition project. I would like to describe here the 2 approaches used to develop the audio-visual compositions:
