April 06, 2012: The Music Collective’s Alan Ett has been hard at work composing music and writing lyrics for The Hallmark Channel’s first ever movie-musical "The Music Teacher"
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the casting team for this highly anticipated production has chosen their star (click here for the complete article from HollywoodReporter.com). Annie Potts (GCB, Designing Women, Toy Story) will play high school music teacher Alyson Daley, whose beloved music program faces budget-fueled termination until former students return in an effort to raise funds and save the program. In addition to scoring The Music Teacher, Ett is also composing music and writing lyrics for the musical that is performed within the film. The Music Teacher is currently in pre-production in Vancouver and is on schedule for a fall 2012 debut on the Hallmark Channel.
March 13, 2012: "¡Q’Viva! The Chosen" - Music By The Music Collective
The latest project from Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, "¡Q’Viva! The Chosen", is quickly becoming a huge success and The Music Collective is pleased to be responsible for all of the music in the show including the main title, composed by our very own Alec Puro. The challenge in creating the music to complement such an inspiring production was to utilize the style, energy and instrumentation of Latin American performers. Currently airing in the US on FOX and Univision (Spanish language version of the show), "¡Q’Viva! The Chosen" is a talent search competition from executive producer Simon Fuller (American Idol). According to Jennifer Lopez, "This is about creating a live visual experience about Latin culture, rhythm and dance." Added executive producer Simon Fuller, "Every time I have traveled in the region, I have been blown away by its beauty and the potential of the people. ¡Q’Viva! will reveal to the world just how much exquisite and pure talent exists in every corner of every country."
