The 2013 baseball season is in full swing, and the Jackie Robinson biopic “42” is almost here!

Director Brian Helgeland described Mark’s score for the film as “compelling…passes the true test of film music – it’s able to stand on its own as a beautiful piece of music”.

An album of songs which includes Mark’s main theme from the film has been released –
