Act II is scored!

I've spent all day at home today, polishing Jon's arrangement of Act II, but it's now done. His work is clearly exceptionally good, all I had to do was add dynamics and ornamentation, and also changed a few drum parts here and there (just because Jon forgot how to get Sibelius to write cymbals).

The next job as always is to make a Kontakt recording of it.

ACT II – CUTTING EDGE (1998 - 2006)

Halo Theme Mjolnir Mix - Halo 2 (2004) - Martin O'Donnell / Michael Salvatori with Steve Vai
Secure Place - Resident Evil 2 (1998) - Masami Ueda
Operation Market Garden - Medal of Honor Frontline (2002) - Michael Giacchino
Metal Gear Solid Theme - Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (2004) - Harry Gregson-Williams
"24" Theme - 24 - The Game (2006) - Sean Callery
Metal Gear Solid Theme - Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty (2001) - Harry Gregson-Williams

As you can see I initially wanted the climax of Snake Eater to seque perfectly into the main Metal Gear Solid theme, but Jon's sandwiched the 24 theme in between them. All I can say to this is that it really works and once the Kontakt version is mixed you can judge for yourselves.

Oh and by the way, Jon can't get out of work Tuesday and Thursday this week; so I'll be running those two rehearsals ARGH!
