It was mostly stuff we already knew, with some new nuggets thrown in. He talked about figuring out a film's musical voice and not being married to being too on-the-nose, especially for Cab Calloway style with Aladdin and gospel with Hercules. He said he struggled to find the voice for Tangled, especially with the love ballad. He talked about a rock ballet that never got recorded, where he met his wife and briefly talked about the films he scored that he didn't write music to. <br /> <br />He had some good advice about character-writing and art. He says he decided to make Rapunzel's opening number upbeat because he believes you shouldn't have a character start out crying for themselves, if you ever want there to be an emotional return later. He said he pictured "When Will My Life Begin" as a Tori Amos (I think?) song and played like 10 seconds of his idea of it on piano and I remember preferring the way he played it <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /> <br /> <br />He said that when you're composing for film, you can't get too attached to what you do and you have to let others tell you what's good or not. When asked what his favorite work is, he said that's like asking what his favorite child is. But he said Hunchback had the most scope and was the grandest, and he shared a special sentiment for TLM.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>AladdinsGenie</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Tue Mar 23, 2021 12:18 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Ooh, anything good happen/get mentioned?</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Meesh</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Tue Mar 16, 2021 5:23 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Happy Hour with Alan Menken</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">On Zoom tonight!
