I am looking for sheet music from the movie "Million Long Thread". The movie is about a scientist, Sergei Limolin, and his attempts to destroy a filovirus (hence the "Thread") that`s most characteristic symptom is that it causes the victims blood vessels to segment into a million parts. (Hence the "Million Long". The virus also has the effect of making its victims want to delete harmless objects and people, and to end conversations. The scientist ends up contracting the virus, and tragically kills his daughter Trechta because she is "Too much of a chatterbox."
The music was written by a number of composers who each wrote a small section without knowing what the others had done. It is strange, but at times hauntingly beautiful.

Oh, I remember that one! I knew the composer who wrote cafe scene music ( the minuet played by a wagner tuba quartet and a xylophone ). Unfortunatly I can`t find the sheet music for that :-(. I had it once, but when I woke up one morning... it was gone! replaced by a collection of obscene arias for flute and countertenor.

Yes! I know that theme bottom out! I loved the music for when that scene when the exchange students from Australia came up with a idea to save the scientist daughter, but unfourtuantly, the CD was recently scratched, and all I decifer is random crap on the CD, it`s completly ruined. It`s funny, I was given that CD by someone I thought to be a friend, but they ended up scratching me for no real reason, and the rest of the Cd turned out to be crap that was the only good tune.

I like the music from the scene where the scientist realises what he`s done after he kills his daughter.

What about the song that Trechta sings when Dr Limolin flashes back to her early childhood?

i believe it is a tin whistle/tuba duet, each playing in a different key and time signature

Oh, the one by Amelia Lichen-Thrope! I`ve heard that she was the love child of Webern, John Cage and Florence Foster-Jenkins ( biographical authorities are unsure of who the mother was ).
And who would have thought that an old Ed wood script could inspire such musical majesty...

The most horrindous music was from the scene when the SWAT team came to eliminate the good doctor and his family because he was infected, and instead they mowed down that innocent girl from Texas, that scene was so depressing, but the music was amazing

I have the words to Trechta`s song! They are taken from a number of poets.
Blame us for these who were cradled and rocked in our chaos
But when you are sad, think, heaven could give no more
Earth in forgetful snow
I could not hear the thrush`s song
In sunlight to the sun, shall set in night
No more by thee my steps shall be
The last poetic voice is dead
The poets are (in order of line)

Tessimond, AJ
Ridler, A
Eliot, TS
Cornwall, B
Hood, T
Tennyson
Arnold, M
The poems are (in order of line)
Epitaph for Our Children
At Parting
"Burial of the Dead" from The Wasteland
The New-Born Baby`s Song
Death
A Farewell
Memorial Verses

Oh, thats such a heartmoving scene when she lists out those poets one by one! The viola bastarda obbligato only adds to the drama...

You mean the one written by Herbert von Beetozart and Ludwig Ormandy-Beecham?
