I was listening to “A Kaleidoscope of Mathematics” just yesterday. A beautiful piece. Prayers for the pilot, whoever he is.

Very sad. Prayer: Requiem eternam, Dominus Deus.

He was super talented and scored numerous films like Avatar and Perfect Storm. He crashed in the nice hills above Ojai.

“Titanic” is probably his most famous score, but I love the work he did on “Field of Dreams”. There aren’t many synthesizer-heavy scores from that period that still sound fresh and contemporary.

I feel like I’ve finally gotten something for the three hours of my life that movie took from me.

Very sad news if he is gone. I’ve loved his music, and have several of the movie soundtracks he created.

Not a fan. Horner did the best he could with the hand he was dealt. Unfortunately, someone thought it was a good idea to let Jim Cameron write dialogue. Mozart couldn’t have overcome that dreck.

I loved it. It works like a silent film.

He also composed The Perfect Storm soundtrack and some hellacious Star Trek soundtracks.

Really, really hoping he's OK.

‘Thought I’d ping you to this. His “Elegy” from “Courage Under Fire” always made me think of Vietnam...and actually helped chase some of the bugaboos away.

I actually thought to write to him once and thank him, but never actually did. More’s the pity.

RIP James Horner.

Best....
