And can you imagine what it would be like - as it was occasionally on this project - trying to compose music to satisfy a director who's trying to satisfy a male executive who's trying to satisfy ten million teenage girls?

My equipment was packed up, I was getting on a plane to Maine, and suddenly they needed a new love theme in a matter of days. Everyone other than me and my family thought I should stay in L. I told the folks from Twilight that I'd understand if they hired another composer and got on the plane. Once I landed in Maine I was a bit less upset and offered to try some variations on the "Love Theme", writing at night so it wouldn't interfere with my family's days.

It turned out that removing the B flat also removed all the interest from the melody. Eventually I had 5 or 6 variations, ranging from vapid to acceptable, and I sent them to Catherine.

I don't know how many she played for Summit. One was approved, and I put it on paper for Rob to play which he did very well. Catherine and I tried to come up with a title for the piece that would more accurately convey its purpose, but Summit insisted it be called "Bella's Lullaby," and I'm happy to think of it as such.

The opening piano melody is the original version I wrote so many years ago I kept it in the movie despite Summit's objections , and the melody Rob plays toward the end is the variation that Summit approved. You will hear both peppered throughout the film. I comfort myself that the original tune predominates, because, for me, it's more memorable. Which one do you remember? The beginning of the variation melody Play.

I should mention that Christine, the woman for whom I first wrote the melody years ago, is now my amazing and sometimes challenging wife.

In my heart the tune will always be ours, but now it's yours and Bella and Edward's as well. There are two soundtrack albums for Twilight. The Score Soundtrack contains 19 pieces from the score, including "Bella's Lullaby", but none of the songs. This is a book of piano sheet music for 11 pieces from the film's score, including "Bella's Lullaby".

Published by Hal Leonard, it's available from various music stores. In addition to the questions answered below, you may want to look at my more general FAQ page, which answers questions about myself and film scoring in general.

I'm not allowed to listen to "unsolicited" ideas, whether musical or lyrical. This is a general rule in show business so that we don't get sued later by people who claim we've stolen their ideas.

For better or worse, this is one reason there are so many layers of "middle-people" like agents, producers, and guilds. They register the passing of ideas and create a paper trail so that later disagreements can be adjudicated.

I know this sounds like a ridiculous headache and one must wonder how anything heartfelt or imaginative can result from it. Believe me, it's a challenge.. A theme is a musical element, usually a melody, that is associated with some element of the film - a character, a thing, a story. The composer creates this association by playing the theme whenever the element appears, and the audience unconsciouly forms an association between the two.

It need not be a melody. In Twilight , the "Nomads" - James, Victoria and Laurent - have a theme based not on melody but on a bass-line, a drum beat and a distorted guitar sound. When the Nomads interrupt the baseball game, the sound of the guitar tells you they're there before you can see them. In the case of Bella and Edward, their "Love Theme" is hinted at in the biology scene where they first speak, but is only fully realized in the middle of the film when they climb into the treetops and then Edward plays "Bella's Lullaby" for her on piano.

Another theme in Twilight is the "Predator Theme". It is the opening music in the film, playing as someone is chasing a deer through the woods and continuing over Bella in the desert. You may suspect that it is Edward chasing the deer, and the Predator theme is intended to play his vampire nature and his discomfort with it.

It develops as Bella starts to investigate his nature and confronts him about it, and reaches an operatic pitch in the final showdown in the ballet studio where Edward fights James and questions whether he has the self-control to save Bella. Finally there is a theme for The Cullens. It only appears twice in the film - when we first see them in the school cafeteria and when Bella is at their house for dinner.

It took 8 to 9 weeks to compose the music and another week or so to orchestrate it. It was recorded in about 9 days and mixed in about 6. This is actually considered a generous schedule as film scores go, but a lot of this time was not well spent. There was a lot of composing of music that no one wanted to put in the film, just so that everyone could feel that we'd exhausted all the options. About versions of cues as we call each piece of music were written and sketched for the director, although there are only 32 cues in the final film.

When you arrange a piece of music for an ensemble of musicians - selecting exactly which notes will be played by which instruments and in what ways - you are orchestrating. For instance, a composer might write a piano score and hand it to an orchestrator who can expand it some say "explode it" onto a full piece symphony orchestra score.

I chose to orchestrate Twilight myself because I felt it was important that all the nuances of the music be as personal as possible. Also, a lot of the musical arrangements in the score are unusual.

For instance the Predator theme as in "I Know What You Are" is often played by string quartet, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, piano, harp, acoustic bass, electric bass, three electric guitars, drum kit, quite a lot of percussion and electronics. Because this is not a standard ensemble to say the least it would be hard for anyone other than myself to know how I intended it to sound. Even for myself it was challenging.

I have to admit the only audience I consider when I'm composing is myself. Of course I ultimately have to satisfy the director of the film, and sometimes the producers, and in this case even the studio executives. But I never really know what any of those people is going to think, so there's no chance at all that I'll be able to guess what those millions of unknown audience members will think.

In the case of Twilight , I hope that this attitude results in the score refusing to condescend to the audience, but to instead respect the maturity and depth of their hearts, minds and ears.
