I play the violin, (I know, I know, "a curse beon my soul"), but I would also like to find the sound track and sheet music for The Terminal.
Someone, PLEASE!!! find it!!!

An idea that i have confirmed works is to download the midi off ....

And import it to "Noteworthy Composer," which converts it into notation. You can download a free trial

Please also note that "The Terminal" was Emily Bernstein`s last recorded work before her untimely death. Her Memorial Service was on February 19,2005, in Pasadena, CA, and a representative reading a letter from John Williams, quoted John as saying, that he praised her clarinet performance on the "Terminal" and noted that she received a standing ovation by a hundred piece orchestra at the studio recording session after "nailing" the music in the first take of the session. He also noted that Emily brought a whole new, fresh sound of clarinet style to the music world, and displayed it in her remarkable performance of "The Terminal" soundtrack. This was a first in the history of film score recording sessions and ironically the greatest achievement and recognition of Emily Bernstein before her untimely death. Her tremendous clarinet playing on this film score will live on forever.

At Emily’s request, please consider making a donation to the newly established Emily Bernstein Fund at The Pasadena Symphony in lieu of flowers. This fund will ensure the continued excellence of the ensemble that was such an important part of Emily’s artistic life, allowing her devotion to music to live on for years to come. The Emily Bernstein Fund The Pasadena Symphony 2500 East Colorado Boulevard, Suite 260 Pasadena, CA 91107 Please make checks payable to The Pasadena Symphony.

This site has a link to the midi of "The Tale of Viktor Navorski" and you can convert the midi to notes by using Finale or something like it. If you don`t want to spend $400 for Finale, try Mozart, its free for 30 days. Mozart.co.uk is the site, I think.

Emily bernstein... she passed away shortly after from terminal cancer...

Hello Music friends,

Who can give me some information about the Music from the moviepicture the Terminal??
I mean the part "The tale of Victor Navorski ".
I am searching for sheet music for a symfonic wind band in the Neterlands.

Thanks for reading my question!!

Greetings from The Netherlands.

Pieter Urff.

Emily was a my teacher for about 5 or 6 years.her and john willams were good friends. if my memory serves me correct, he wrote the theme for her. I was not taking lessons from her when she recored The Termainal but he often would give me copies of the many other film scores she played. I will see if i can have a copy sent to me becuase i know who would have one. if you guys like the solos she did in that movie "the patriot" (with mel Gibosn) also has some amazing clarinet solos.

to leviguthrie and any others who may know:

i just watched 'the terminal' myself, and i LOVE the clarinet theme. i bought 'noteworthy' because of it. if anyone knows some more good clarinet solos and/or where to find MIDI files of them, please let me know. i'd like to start making a collection of sheet music for myself. thanks!!!

I found a bio paragraph on Emily Bernstein. Apparently, she died last year, but her performances are impressive.

"Ms. Bernstein made frequent appearances as a soloist and chamber musician throughout the west and recorded for the Delos, Phillips, and Sony Classics labels. She was an active studio musician and has performed on hundreds of motion picture and television scores including, Catch Me If You Can, Pirates of the Caribbean, Sea Biscuit, and JAG. She was featured in the John Williams score for the movie The Terminal. An article in the La Cañada Valley Sun reported that after Emily recorded the clarinet solo for "The Terminal," director Steven Spielberg - a former clarinetist himself - insisted that Bernstein's name appear in the film's end credits, although traditionally individual musicians performing in studio orchestras remain anonymous."
