Leitmotif Score — "The Forgiveness Story" (Living on the Edge)

Short description: Original score composed for a feature narrative series documenting a father's journey through grief and forgiveness after his son's violent crime. Three distinct reactive themes — a gentle melody tied to the wife's memory, a dissonant cue for the moment of discovery, and a resolving theme for the courtroom forgiveness scene. Each cue was written to respond to the emotional beat of the narration in real time.
