I was fortunate enough to attend these recordings and the first day was a success. I'm not allowed to divulge the location, but I had the very welcome pleasure of meeting Bruce Broughton, Don Davis, and Michael Giacchino today as each of their compositions was recorded today. I was lucky enough to meet a few fellow members of this website as well. The pianist, Gloria Cheng, is extraordinarily talented and hard-working, and everyone was extremely humble. This project is going to turn out nicely. The level of professionalism that goes into a recording project such as this is quite remarkable, and from witnessing the entire recording session I now have a greater appreciation of the craft as a result of it. Tomorrow, the Alexandre Desplat, Randy Newman, and John Williams works are to be recorded, with Desplat the only one who will not be in attendance. The pieces that I've heard this far are all unique in style, and I think the album will have a broad enough variety to make it an enjoyable listening experience. I don't feel like I'm getting ripped off at all. I hope to have more positive feedback from Monday's sessions!
