Throughout his career, Isham has collaborated with a diverse range of great directors, including Robert Altman, Gillian Armstrong, Kathryn Bigelow, Brian De Palma, Jodie Foster, William Friedkin, Paul Haggis, Werner. This is the frst time that an entire album is devoted to Mark Isham's flm and television career as a
whole. Focusing on his symphonic music for screen and spotlighting some of his very best works, this album contains a unique selection of pieces and suites from his massive oeuvre, performed by the Brussels Philharmonic and conducted by Film Fest Gent music director Dirk Bross ©. The trumpet solos on selected pieces have been newly performed by Mark Isham himself and by the Los Angeles Philharmonic's principal trumpet player Thomas Hooten stepped into the limelight as a trumpeter and a synthesist, notably performing alongside Van Morrison among others. Utilising his classical education as well as his rich background in the jazz and electronic genres, he brings a fresh approach to each score in order to fnd the best, most creative solutions for every flm.
