Sprited

A classically trained violinist in a small town symphony has a hobby of collecting musical instruments of famous dead musicians. Unbeknown to him, he's been collecting the ghosts of those musicians and they wont leave him alone until he rediscovers the "Spirit" of the music he plays. This is my very first screenplay I wrote about 20 years ago and it's the 1st draft version complete with rookie mistakes galore. However, it did good enough in some contests that I actually got representation from Sound Heritage Productions for 6 months. They took a couple of meeting over this script as is. So evidently if somebody likes the meat of the story good enough they'll over look beginners mistakes. However, valuable lesson learned. I had no idea how expensive music rights were and everybody agreed generic music would not work for this story.
