It’s fairly well known that Horner sketched directly to a full score, not some reduced line score. His process was to do the timings, block the scenes, get a sense of the chords, fill in moments where he wanted to have the music do something, then write around that. Horner preferred to do as much full orchestration as he could to explain the color of the music but, as deadlines came creeping along, he’d fill in less and less until he was reduced to providing verbal instructions. Horner always “wrote” the music but who got the notes on paper was up for grabs based on the movie or deadline. It’s my understanding that Braveheart is entirely in Horner’s hand as is most of The Mask of Zorro, for example. During the Apollo 13 score study Steve Branson showed what Horner gave him. The Main Title required barely any work since Horner fully orchestrated it. But Reentry and Splashdown was a full score with timings, chords, and a melody line. Horner provided detailed how then Bramson would take that and fill in the actual notes. It’s in the Windtalker liner notes that Randy Kerber took Horner’s own “text” and fit it to the movie after it was chopped up then Horner conducted the new sessions because Horner had moved on to The Four Feathers and was too busy to do it himself. Yet the music was still Horner’s; just in truncated or abridged form.
The interview with JAC Redford neumation mentioned is beyond outstanding a must read for those wanting to understand how Horner worked. Horner didn’t any less write his music than Jerry wrote his. They each had their own ways and tricks for dealing with looming deadlines (and Horner especially in the era of digital editing and film by committee)
