It was real tight as noted above but I ended up voting for Cassandra Miller, which I ended up listening to four or five times

A big chunk of the first 10 minutes of Become Ocean really reminds me of Richard Robbins' scores for Howards End and The Remains Of The Day. I'm wary of comparing clasical to soundtracks as i've been upbraided by musos who say it's 'bad classical' (Morricone etc) but *shrug* there it is.
