    @Jay Thanks for the links about the book. I can write again to the two music editors if you think this version is not the right one.

    @bollemanneke Thank you for your interest in the book. It is the culmination of ten years of research and four years of writing. The source material comprises 400 referenced sources, including 70 exclusive interviews with directors, producers, and musicians, as well as 30 hours of recorded interviews with James Horner’s family and close associates. 
     
    I can't remember if I shared this here. Sorry for the duplication if I did: 
    Here is an overview of the chapter on Titanic that will be in the book. The first three lines (39 pages) tell about the creation of the score, month after month. All this work was possible thanks to James Horner's collaborators who shared their memories for dozens of hours. For example, in this chapter there are exclusive recollections from Jim Henrikson, Joe E. Rand, Simon Franglen, Sissel, Eric Rigler, James Thatcher, Sara Horner, Ian Underwood. I'm sure I'm forgetting others.
    There are of course quotes from James Horner, James Cameron, Celine Dion from the already known interviews. The fourth line at the bottom is the musical commentary.

    For the past six months, James Horner Film Music has embarked on an exciting new phase in its charter to celebrate and preserve the legacy of James Horner's career that I've been reluctant to share here, being somewhat apprehensive of the varied responses it might yield. However, not presenting it here denies a potential audience important news and opportunities that I think is worthy of your consideration.

    James Horner’s disappearance has left a void. Yes, his music remains but the problem is that we no longer have his new music that used to rock our lives month after month, year after year. We no longer have the excitement of new projects. We don’t have the interviews that revealed the other side of the story and the creative process.
    James Horner Film Music has been trying since 2015 to solve this problem, to fill this void by bringing the composer’s work to life. We want to relive the excitement, the joy of discovery. Since 2018, following our visit to his studio, we have embarked on several ambitious projects:
    Organize a concert with several rare and almost unknown concert works on 7 May 2021 in Sczecin, Poland. Collaborating on a new video documentary short about James Horner, which will premiere as part of the concert experience in Szczecin. Recording and releasing an album featuring the rare, almost unheard concert works. Write a reference book on the composer to be published in English and French. The book is being written after two years of data collection.
    All living directors have been contacted for an interview. Thus the book will present the unpublished testimonies of Roger Corman, Walter Hill, Nicholas Meyer, Christopher Cain, Jean-Jacques Annaud and many others. Numerous correspondences have been made with the composer’s closest collaborators and family in order to tell the story of his career in the most accurate way possible. 150 interviews of the composer (including about fifteen unpublished or rare ones) have been collected in order to offer the most complete description of his career. For several months now, many people have been supporting the projects and following their progress, while benefiting from new and exclusive content.

    If you're interested in joining them, please visit: https://www.patreon.com/jhfm

    James Horner Film Music is offering an opportunity to dive into the heart of our projects, see what goes on behind the scenes, get to know us better, experience our news live and access exclusive digital content. For our part, we want to deepen our relationship with you and offer you more and more content. If you, too, want to be more familair with our endeavors and who we are, if you believe in our work and want to nurture and foster it in the long term, then please join us on Patreon.

    We have already published on our Patreon page about forty articles with images, unpublished videos, audio excerpts from A Forest Passage, the table of contents and excerpts from our book... And our patrons have come together on Discord (a modern voice & text chat app), which is a place of sharing for fans of James Horner’s music.

    In the nine years since James Horner Film Music was established, we've accomplished a great deal, having shared nearly 300 articles about the music of James Horner. But there is still so much more to do in the service of properly honoring our beloved maestro's legacy. The contributions of our patrons will be used to finance our projects: rights to use images for the book, filming and editing costs for the documentary, developing the concert events, and an uncountable host of other activities necessary to continue this work. If you have enjoyed our work in the past and want to contribute to its future, we hope you will consider becoming a patron.

    Visit https://www.patreon.com/jhfm; with your help, we'd love to see you at a concert, CD release, or book event!

    You can ask me all the questions you want. Even though we are getting away from the subject which is the 4CD edition.
     
    All the scores are covered in the book. The somewhat crazy goal is to get all the information into one item. The chapter on Titanic is about 26,000 words. The section on The Perfect Storm is 6,500 words.

    After the cancellation of the 2020 and 2021 concerts due to the pandemic, the James Horner Film Music Association is pleased to announce that the 2022 concert will take place!
     
    Its title: James Horner - The Emotionalist - The Concert
     


    It will take place in Szcecin, Poland (2 hours drive from Berlin) on May 13, 2022.

    On the program: James Horner’s most famous film music but especially the two concert pieces Spectral Shimmers and A Forest Passage which have not been performed since 1979 and 2000 respectively.

    A moving 20-minute tribute video divided into 3 parts will be shown between the music pieces. It was filmed in Calabasas at the composer’s home with his wife Sara and daughter Emily.

    Other surprises are also planned.

    All the information is available by following this link: http://jameshorner-filmmusic.com/may-13th-2022-james-horner-the-emotionalist-the-concert/

    For those who can’t make it to the concert, a big surprise awaits you in the article.

    You are allowed to talk about the surprise in the following posts, it’s just that I wanted 1 or 2 people to go read our article.

    @Jay You are absolutely right.

    "It doesn’t work. It’s supposed to be country rock!" This is what Phil Alden Robinson said when he heard the track in the film.
     
    So he called James Horner to correct this part.
    The director remembers very well this call and James Horner's answer. It will all be in the book.
