Well that’s terrible news. Thanks for the Facebook heads up — I was able to see some of the kind words for Clare.
I’m not sure if I have the message anymore but at one point I received an email from Clare, perhaps by accident. I wish I could dig it up but it might have been lost in the sands of AOL time…
Got my CD today — man, I wish Danny had scored the whole film. This is fantastic!
I’ve got three new Elfman discs on my desk for the first time in how long? It’s a good time!
Wow – the concert sounds great. The fact that it will be recorded is even better. It means I won’t have to travel to Vienna to see it! 😉

Link to Amazon.ca for anyone in North America who wants to grab a pressed disc:
Tulip Fever (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
The exchange rate to US dollars means the disc retails for $12.70. Shipping is just over $6 US. It’s a bit more than what you’d pay if you ordered off Amazon.com, but at least this way you have an actual legit CD.
Amazon.ca Sony releases are pressed discs.
I’ve been listening to TULIP FEVER on Spotify and it’s pretty great — while it’s very close to SLEEPY HOLLOW, “Happy Family” is knockout.
Great write up. Still waiting for Amazon.ca to ship my CD. I listened to the album last night on Spotify. Going to save my thoughts until I can sit down and listen intently.
Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered my copy. $35 Canadian w/ shipping. Ouch. That’s more than $2 per minute of Elfman music!
Hey Thor, that’s what the “Freshness” column is for on the message list page. It will indicate time and date of last post. Clicking that will bring you to the last post in each thread.
Thanks, guys! Phase 1 was getting the board setup. Phase 2 is the rest of the site. That’s been underway for some time, hopefully it’ll all get pulled together shortly.
It lives still!
Looks like the jury for the film contest has been announced:
Always dreamed of having your short film scored by Grammy- and Emmy-winning — and four-time Oscar nominee — Danny Elfman? Now’s your chance.
Elfman introduced the Rabbit and Rogue Project in June 2016 as an opportunity for up-and-coming filmmakers to use selections from his “Rabbit and Rogue” album as inspiration and a soundtrack for their short films.
The competition, produced in partnership with the LA Film Festival and Indi.com, allows filmmakers to use selections from Elfman’s “Rabbit and Rogue” and compete for the opportunity to premiere their film at the 2017 LA Film Festival.
The festival announced Thursday the first five judges for the project: Paul Haggis (“Crash”), McG (“Charlie’s Angels”), Rob Minkoff (“The Lion King”), Sam Taylor-Johnson (“50 Shades of Grey”) and Gus Van Sant (“Good Will Hunting”).
The competition will award six winners, one for each of Elfman’s compositions, and the deadline for filmmakers to apply is April 15.
The LA Film Festival is June 14-22.
I have the CD somewhere around here. Since I am reconfiguring my office, my CDs are in 12 very precarious stacks in the corner of the room.
Impressive! Do you have the La-La Land BATMAN set? With the better artwork and corrected sound? You’ll need the EDWARD LP reissue to round out your record collection — something I’d like to do as well. I don’t think DARKMAN was issued in North America on LP, at least not according to Discogs.

This is great news. I’ve had the “Cassandra Aria” on CD for about 20 (?) years… It was on a pay-per-view tie-in compilation produced by Ford Thaxton. He kindly sent me a copy back then. It didn’t have the reprise cue, however. SCREAM 2 is probably the best of the three scores, so this will be a must buy.
