An Untold Triumph – PBS

by Modern Songbook Records | Feb 6, 2012 | Film Scores

This is a score I wrote for a wonderful filmmaker named Sonnny Izon. It was narrated by Lou Diamond Phillips.

It is the amazing story of the 1st and 2nd Filipino Army Regiments who fought in the re-taking of the Philippines in WWII.

The Appalachians – PBS

by Modern Songbook Records | Feb 6, 2012 | Film Scores

These two tracks are from a three part series for PBS called The Appalachians. The brilliant Phylis Geller produced this under the guiding hand of MariLynn Evans. Sam Green and Barbara Burst edited. The best part of this was putting together an all-star string band: Bob (Sparky) Spates on fiddle and mandolin, Chris Kosky on bass, and Paul Bell on his various guitars. I played the banjo (yes…. who knew?). The recordings were all done at Cue Recording Studios in Falls Church, VA with Ken Shubert engineering. The show premiered on Nashville Public Television in March 2005.

Closer To Truth

Directed by the intellectual wild child, Peter Getzels. He is the poster boy for making ADD work FOR you! I LOVED writing for him. Here are two string tracks that say everything about Peter’s taste in music – and maybe something about mine also.
