A Random Musical Idea

I had a random idea. I'll probably never actually do it, because it would take a ton of work. But it's fun to think about. 

My idea is to take an actor I really like, and arrange a song for them. It would be an arrangement of melodies I love from some of the movies they've been in. Especially melodies that relate to the characters they play. Maybe more than one song from each movie, because some movies have a lot of good music! It would mostly be for the flute, but some of it could be sung too. 

And yeah, I don't think I'd ever actually do this unless I knew the actor would listen to it. And it would be cool to see if they had any movies or songs they specifically wanted (or didn't want?).


But, for example, if I were to write one for my favorite actor, Hugh Jackman, it would contain melodies from these movies:

X-Men (specifically the song Logan and Rogue. I was in love with that song in middle school)

X2 (which was my favorite movie for a long time)

Greatest Showman (I'd want to use a few songs from this movie!)

Rise of the Guardians (the Easter song)

Kate and Leopold (I'm not familiar with this soundtrack as much, but it's a great movie)

Flushed Away (again, not familiar with the soundtrack. But this movie is hilarious)

Van Helsing (yes, one of the few movies I'm embarrassed to admit that I like)

Les Miserables (I'd need a few songs from this movie too)

 

 

I started thinking about this for other actors too. Heheh. Do you think I could get in touch with an actor if I offered to arrange a medley for them? XD
