Using that gifted ear for solo writing. Schindler's List , Seven Years In Tibet , JFK , Rosewood , many others. In them we heard solos galore for violin, cello, for trumpet, French horn. In Saving Private Ryan a pair of trumpets blended with brass choir. These movie scores become significant events.
Individual players provide unique color, style, tone.
True personalized performances. It's special to hear a composer and a soloist collaborate on a musical idea, an expression. When the music is heartfelt it's extra special. Two hearts in one. So it is with Angela's Ashes .
