I remember a piece, maybe this one, being broadcast on NPR a while back, and as I read it I am amazed but the whole world of things and people I know nothing about. Thanks for opening this up.

It probably was this one, Shakes...last night I couldn't find the date (3/2006)...faint type combined with 6 am. But I like it because it has audio links so you can listen to some of his songs. :) I'm still looking for a copy of Gas which has 'Neighbors' and that does not cost $80.

In some forum I told everyone that I had recorded an Mp3 of Gustavo on NPR that was broadcast on 12/08/05. In it he discusses Brokeback Mountain and is well worth hearing. I just sent of a copy of it yesterday to someone who had read that post. From NPR's Website at the time:

NPR MOVIES: The Sound Of Brokeback Mountain - Day to Day: December 8, 2005
Producer Derek Rath speaks with composer Gustavo Santoalalla, the man behind the music for the upcoming film Brokeback Mountain.
The film follows the lives of two cowboys who share a physical and emotional relationship that haunts their lives.
In an unusual reversal of how a film is commonly scored, Santoalalla says the music was created first and used as an inspiration for the film's shooting and for the actors.

If you have a broadband connection, I would be happy to send you a copy. It is 5.05Mb. Email me at [email protected] if you are interested.

It was exciting to hear Gustavo Santaolalla talk about composing for Brokeback Mountain, how he was selected, and how he related with Ang Lee, on an interview recorded on the NPR show "Here and Now" yesterday!! Some beautiful music included!

Wow, he wrote the music before the first scene was shot. That is pretty amazing but then again it is a pretty amazing film. That music, it makes the movie. It is the emotion of the movie. For me it is a fixed point in time.

Yes, I found that incredible too, but just one more reason why this film is really blessed!
