Word For Word: An Interview with John Corigliano
Composer of "The Red Violin"
"The violin is a very natural instrument for me to write for, because I've had so many years of practicing. Also, this film was going to be about a wonderful epic journey undertaken by a violin. I thought, 'This really is a good script, and it also needs music in a way that most movies don't.' It's not a matter of just holding up the background; you have to give it a musical identity strong enough so that it carries through the film."
--Composer John Corigliano on why he returned to scoring soundtracks with "The Red Violin"
Corigliano's score for The Red Violin won an Oscar, Seventy-Second Annual Awards
