Interview with Carlos Rafael Rivera Hello I am Randy Andrews and today I’ll be interviewing Carlos Rafael Rivera. He just recently composed music for the Netflix series Godless. I’ll be asking him questions about his career and other things. I’ll also share the main theme to Godless among another suite created for A Walk Among the Tombstones. It’s all today on Soundtrack Alley! Play Intro Hello, Today I’ll be presenting the interview with Carlos Rafael Rivera. I hope you enjoy it! Play Interview. How did you begin composing for film, concert, and television? What has it been like being a protégé of Randy Newman and what kind of advice does he provide to extend your career? Do you have personal projects with being a Guitarist? Explain What exactly is the Society of composers and Lyricist and what part do you play? What sound were you looking for with the new Netflix series Godless coming up? Is it a different type of genre you are used to composing for? If you had a dream job of composing for a major production whether for film or television, past or present, what would it be and why? Do you think its easier to compose for a large orchestra or a small one? What are you currently working on? Are there any future projects you can talk about? Thank you so much for taking the time for this interview. So talking with Carlos, he opened me up to listening to A Walk Among the Tombstones. So today I’ll present a short suite for you with The Main Title, Among the Tombstones and Aftermath and Reprise. These cues really highlight the guitar work that Carlos is able to do. I really appreciate the cello work as well. So now I’ll play those cues. Play Cues. We’ve come down to another end of Soundtrack Alley today.
