MARK ISHAM'S SECRET SOURCES

MARK ISHAM’S SECRET SOURCES
Film composer enters the Echoes Chamber to hear his past reverberate.
2007 was a busy year for film composer Mark Isham whose scores included In the Valley of Elah, Reservation Road, The Mist and Lions for Lambs. In his southern California studio, Isham hears tracks that have shaped his music, and sounds that he has shaped over the course of a four-decade music career.
