We started our chat by discussing the native New Yorker's memories of his time at Boston's musical Mecca, Berklee College of Music.
Joe's and I talked about his friendships and work with Scott Storm, Bryan Singer and Christopher McQuarrie.
I was curious how Joe's musical work connected with his filmmaker friends.
Joe explained how he got connected to Dallas Chamber Symphony.
We talked about the impact a Chamber Symphony had on Joe's creative choices for the new work.
Joe broke down how he approached writing the music to Sunrise's plot.
I asked Joe if there was a character's theme from one of his many film/tv scores that is a favorite.
