When I first saw the footage of the scenes for which I would be composing music, I was awestruck by the the immense power of the atom, the unfathomable destruction, and the eerie beauty of these images as I witnessed them on film. They spoke to me on an emotional level with such enormous clarity, I found it easy to translate these feelings of mine onto the music paper.
To write for a group this large was much more of a joy than a difficulty. You get used to the size of the group you are composing and orchestrating for, and it becomes a exceptionally freeing experience when you realize that because your palette of orchestral color is so huge, you can write just about anything your heart desires.
