Lorne’s reaction statement to the Emmy nomination:
“I am so thrilled to be nominated for the theme to this remarkable show! It is always a pleasure working with director Ron Howard and he is always open to experimentation. I enjoyed collaborating with Hans [Zimmer] on the theme. In writing the theme, Hans and I had a long nurturing period to come up with the appropriate main title theme and the musical voice of the show.â€
