Geoff Zanelli’s Secret Window
 
Philipp Glass was hired to score Secret Window to replace James Newton-Howard (and Hans Zimmer planned to work with him)‚ and the story seemed to have reached its end.
Not really. Behind Philipp Glass was Geoff Zanelli who composed a lot of extra music in two weeks.
Heres is what can be said about this by Zanelli:
 
They moved the schedule up by about six weeks which made it difficult for one man to finish the score‚ so I was asked to help. The credits will read “Music by Philip Glass‚” ‚ “Additional Music By Geoff Zanelli.” I wrote a little more than half of the score‚ but I haven’t heard what Philip wrote yet. I guess I’ll hear it in the theater… So‚ instead of Zimmer/Newton-Howard‚ you get Glass/Zanelli scoring Secret Window.
It will be pretty easy to tell what music I wrote for Secret Window and what music is Philip Glass. There isn’t much overlap stylistically in what we each did. Both parts of the score are purely orchestra — there is not a single synth‚ and only a tiny bit of percussion.
