THE BFG
Steven Spielberg's new film, “The BFG” opened today.
As part of the music team for "The BFG,” Paul spent over 5 months working directly with composer John Williams's pencil sketches, engraving and orchestrating the final scores for the film. John Williams is an incredible talent, writing all his music with a pencil and paper at the piano. His new score is a magical representation of Roald Dahl's original story. Paul first started working on the orchestrations for the film in late 2015 while on vacation for the holidays.

Paul had the pleasure of playing violin on Barbra Streisand's upcoming album, "Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway.” As expected, Bill Ross's arrangements were wonderful and lush. And Barbra... she's a true artist who is still at the top of her game. Paul also played violin on her last album, "Partners" and live at the Hollywood Bowl in 2013.
