By the way, some very excellent music is composed for movies. The music for my favorite movie of all time "Lonesome Dove" is a perfect example. It stands on its own, but it adds so much to the emotion and meaning of the other elements of a movie.

You are a Texan, are you not? Do me a favor and check out a video called "A Texas Funeral." It's a sleeper, not even released in theatres before it went to video. Martin Sheen has a role, but don't hold that against it. A friend of my daughter's, Jim Legg, wrote the score for that movie. It's a different kind of score than Lonesome Dove's which drives your emotions like a log in a flooding river. This score is so gossamer that you don't actually hear it unless you are specifically listening for it. It's like a cool summer breeze coming through sheer curtains.

Jim Legg had a brilliant future, cut short by a tangle of audio equipment power cables that somehow sparked in his apartment. I feel sad even now, though I only spoke to him on the phone and emailed a couple of times.
