Yellowstone 88 – Song of Fire

Poem by: Betsy de Fries
Narrated by: Peter Coyote
Composed by: Mark Murphy
Animation by: Jerry van de Beek @ Little Fluffy Clouds

In the summer of 1988 dry lightning sparked a fire in the parched and drought ridden landscape of Yellowstone, igniting a blaze that would scorch over 1,500,000 perimeter acres of the park. I had the pleasure of scoring the music for this most beautiful animation.
