Magic Riddle Music Credits Composer Guy Gross Songs Music & Orchestration Guy Gross Lyrics John Palmer Performed by Robyn Moore Ross Higgins Keith Scott 'Ordinary Miracles' Sung by Julie Anthony Music Engineers Simon Leadley Tim Ryan Kirke Godfrey James Cadsky Music Studios Trackdown Pty Ltd Palm Studios GGM Studios Assistant to Guy Gross Cathie Lovell "The Magic Riddle" Soundtrack Album Featuring the Single "Ordinary Miracles" Sung by Julie Anthony Available on CD & Cassette through BMG Records End credits song lyrics: Lyrics for the song sung over the end credits by Julie Anthony. Anthony is too well known to list here, she has a relatively short wiki here: I never could discover what the world was all about Although I searched it everywhere The good and bad were too mixed up to sort them out Until I looked inside my heart … Until I looked inside my heart … Ordinary miracles surround me Ordinary miracles around me I gathered a basket of sunbeams today A necklace of stars from the Milky Way Happiness comes after sorrow Harmony comes after strife Tears today are smiles tomorrow In this riddle known as life This magic riddle known as life (guitar-led musical interlude) Autumn leaves and summer showers Bugs in spring and winter snow I will only think of flowers As the seasons come and go Oh, as the seasons come and go Ordinary miracles surround me Ordinary miracles around me I gathered a basket of sunbeams today…ay A necklace of stars from the Milky Way In this riddle of life ... In this magic riddle of life ... In the VHS version, the song tails away over a plug for song and soundtrack album: The song was released as a CD single, but apparently did no business, and the only copy this site could discover was a sale copy taken from the Seven network archives (Seven routinely purchased Yoram Gross product): The soundtrack was released in a number of territories and seems to have been relatively popular - at least there is no trouble getting hold of a second- hand copy, and it seems to have remained in print in some territories.

Urban Cinefile did a useful profile of Gross back in 1998, online here, but also saved in the Wayback Machine here. Interalia, Gross listed Morriconi as his most admired film composer, with a favourable mention for the likes of Gerry Goldsmith and Danny Elfman. The profile contained some notes on his career: Guy Gross studied music composition at the Conservatorium High School in Sydney, Australia under Edwin Carr. During that time he began composing music for films and wrote songs for his father's animated children's films. Using corporate movies and documentaries as a training ground, Guy continued free- lance work after completing his high school studies, whilst gradually building up his own recording studio. Today Guy, along with partners Simon Leadley, Geoff Watson and Tim Ryan, operates one of Sydney's finest recording studios, Trackdown Digital Studios. Trackdown specialises in recording and mixing audio and music for film, television and multimedia and has recently completed the transition to an entirely digital studio. Although classically trained, Guy is as comfortable scoring for synthesisers as he is for an 80 piece orchestra. In fact many of his early documentaries were commissioned partly due to Guy's ability to create a "live and organic" score entirely using synthesisers. Guy's studio comprises primarily Kurzweil synthesisers through to a Yamaha 02R and he uses Mark of The Unicorns, Digital Performer 2.0 for sequencing. In 1997, Guy completed a 20 minute orchestral score for the new Crown Casino in Melbourne. This work is performed by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and is part of a fixed installation which performs 24 hours a day using lasers, fountains, and high tech lights. The two other composers in this project were Chong Lim and David Hirschfelder. At time of writing, Gross had his own website here. It contained this CV and these credits: Guy Gross is one of Australia's leading film and television composers and recipient of the APRA/AGSC International Achievement Award. In 2012 he was elected president of the Australian Guild of Screen Composers. From his British Academy Award (BAFTA) nominated score to the international hit "The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert to the US SCI-FI series "Farscape", his film scores cover a huge variety of styles. Testament to this diversity, Guy has received numerous peer awards including Best Music for a Documentary, Children's Series, Short film, Animation, Promotional Video, Advertisement, TV Theme and twice for Best Music for a TV Series. Over his 30 year career, Guy has composed music for hundreds of hours of television, including dramatic mini series, children's animation, documentaries, commercials and also a number of Australian feature films. His film music has underscored the acting performances of Toni Collette, Cate Blanchett, Hugo Weaving, Garry McDonald, Molly Ringwald, Kylie Minogue, Phil Collins, Guy Pearce and Olivia Newton John and his scores have been performed in concert by the Sydney, Melbourne and Queensland Symphony Orchestras. Guy began film scoring while still studying composition at the Conservatorium High School in Sydney, Australia. Son of film producers Yoram and Sandra Gross, he began scoring many of the family companies' feature and television projects. Following in his father's footsteps, Guy directed and scored the animated TV series "Old Tom and wrote, scored, produced, and directed the animated television special "Blinky Bill's White Christmas". At the age of 26, Guy scored his first feature film, "Frauds" directed by Stephan Elliott and went on to score four features with Stephan including the 1994 international hit "The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert" and more recently, "A Few Best Men". In '95, Guy composed his award winning score to the ABC TV series "Bordertown" for Knapman Wyld Television for whom he has also scored all three seasons of the internationally award winning TV Series "East West 101". In 1999 Guy received the (shared) award for Best Music at the Tropicana Film Festival (Tropfest) for his score to that year's winning short film "Uno Amore". That year Guy also composed the score to the horror feature film "Cut" for Mushroom Pictures and soon after that began scoring the hit Sci-Fi series "Farscape" produced by The Jim Henson Company. "Farscape" has been a monumental project for Guy keeping him busy for over three years culminating in a big budget, 2 part television mini series "Farscape - Peacekeeper Wars" which enabled him to enlist the services of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and conduct the 140 strong orchestra and choir to create one of his largest film scores to-date. Farscape has spun off five Soundtrack Albums. In recent years Guy has scored the tele-movies: "Dangerous Remedy", "A Model Daughter - The Killing of Caroline Byrne", "Joanne Lees: Murder in the Outback", "Scorched", documentaries: "The Howard Years", "The Prime Minister is Missing" and "Who Killed Dr Bogle and Mrs Chandler?". Guy owns a recording studio complex in Camperdown, Sydney which houses a number of studios and composing suites.
