Hi Chris P and Dutchy
for some reason my computer seems unable to post links on this site that one can click on - and yet others have no such trouble - hence the copy and paste option. Thanks for sorting that out Chris P.
Dutchy, you're right! Maybe using the cor nearer the end of the film and in the end-credits would have been justified, too. The composer, however, had other ideas. I mentioned to him how high the writing was for the cor, and that traditionally its medium and lower registers tend to show it off at its best. But it occurred to me that the tension of the high writing might lend itself well to the horror format. I recorded it with headphones producing a click-track for me, but without any harmonies. They were added later. This allowed me to duet with myself about 7 minutes 20 seconds in. I didn't get to hear the results of my labours until after everything was done and dusted. I'm quite a horror film fan, so, it was quite a buzz for me to be involved with one.
Regards
James
