“Seeds” Documentary Music

Today, BJU presented a brand-new documentary on Bob Jones, Sr. entitled “Seeds.” The documentary explores his childhood, upbringing, and various circumstances in his life that eventually led to him founding Bob Jones College over 80 years ago. I was privileged to be able to contribute a small amount of background music for it. Not much – about 2 and 1/2 minutes in total (most of the audio was pre-recorded).

The cues I wrote were for a scene describing the Civil War and its negative effects on the southern plantation economy and a scene in which Bob Jones describes his mother and the emotions he felt as a young child when she died. With permission from ShowForth, I am posting the two cues that I wrote and recorded for the documentary. You can watch the entire documentary on BJU.edu as well as purchase a DVD copy from ShowForth Videos.

• Cue 2 – “Civil War”
• Cue 4 – “Mother”
