Film Score Suite
Andrew Pearce was commissioned to score a short film for some student filmmakers in London. The quirky, bizarre and comedic subject of their film (featuring a pair of elderly and enterprising twin brothers) required a lively and cartoon-like score to match their performances. Pearce felt the music was strong enough to be revised and released beyond the film. This suite of selected music cues should appeal to more advanced ensembles featuring solo winds, brass and percussion. The suite is book-ended by the memorable main title theme.

Diese vierteilige Suite entstand für einen Streifen, der 1998 von jungen Londoner Filmemachern produziert wurde. Der bizarre und komische Film über einen älteren Unternehmer verlangte eine lebendige, cartooneske Musik. Sie ist so gut geworden, dass sie auch ohne die bewegten Bilder gespielt werden kann, und zwar von fortgeschrittenen Orchestern, die gerne Filmmusik spielen. Neben dem packenden Hauptthema sind Soli in allen Registern vorhanden.
