So sorry to hear this. I'll have to listen to his bittersweet, poignant SOPHIE'S CHOICE in his honor.

He was a great composer with a wonderful sense for themes and melodies. Hopefully a label will pay trubute to him and release the fantastic "Take the Money and run".

I've never heard Sophie's Choice, nor have i seen the film. But I'ven many good words about it, so I must see it one of the next days. I love the Way we Were (one of the best songs ever made), and I also liked a lot his score and song for "The Mirror has two faces". R.I.P.

I saw Marvin in concert twice and it was an absolute DELIGHT. My spouse who is not a fan of film music, he likes, as he calls it, music with words, lol. He LOVED Marvin's concert, absolutely LOVED it. It was music, he had heard before, but couldn't place it whether it be a Hamlisch composition or another talented composer, mixed in with some really funny stories from Marvin and equal parts heart. His concerts were, shall I saw it in a concert all...FUN. You left with a smile. I was fortunate enough to get his autograph several times and met him and he was a class act all the way. I'm quite sad today and I just informed my spouse about it, he's also quite sad. He loved his concert so much he told me, if he comes around here again BOOK TICKETS. Trust me for him to say that is HUGE. He did a song a few years ago for the AFI, it was called A Ticket To Dream and I think it could quite possibly one of the BEST songs about the movies. I used it in my video of a few years ago for the opening titles.

Timmer mentions THE SWIMMER. Lest we forget, one of Lukas's countless contributions to the service of film music was to complete this score, long available only on an o.o.p. LP, and bring it out as one of the FSM titles. You could pay a lot worse tribute to Mr. Hamlisch than to buy this beautiful score, (orchestrated by Shuken and Hayes), if you haven't already.
