Filmmaker John Feldman and his wife, composer Sheila Silver, have been collaborating on music for his films for the past 36 years. As a classical music and opera composer Silver finds writing for John’s films a special treat. Her process is to develop musical themes for the film on piano, which she and John then discuss.

For “Regenerating Life” the themes were Water and Life. While working on the music, Silver invites performer friends to improvise with her, often to picture, around these themes. For “Regenerating Life,” Silver worked with Emmanuel Vukovich, violin, and Ann Ellsworth, horn. Each of these music selections are unedited complete takes.
