In the mood to talk about some of my favorite film composers. Lately it has been Max Richter. In the series the Leftovers, pretty much he uses the same theme for every single episode (different orchestrations) and it always fits!!! Amazing. I also loved his score for "My Brilliant Friend". I'm reading a great book now (that many of you have probably already read) - Berklee's Complete Guide to Film Scoring. I love reading about the history of film scoring. Another score I love is the one for "Terms of Endearment" - pretty much the whole movie uses the A, B and C sections of one piece of music.

That's awesome, Andrea Moon! I've recently been finding remixes of the soundtrack from Avatar: The Last Airbender, which while not as rich as film scores, did an excellent job in deciding very specific themes for characters. I really love it when TV shows do that.
For films, I'm more of a Hans Zimmer person, but I probably don't know many outside of him and John Williams. Any suggestions?
