Music to Live By

"Survivor," the oldest and among the most popular of the reality genre, finished its sixth season last Spring with a weekly audience of twenty million. Reality shows demand quicker turn-around than other TV fare. The time between shooting and airing it can be as brief as a week, allowing almost no time for post-production – including composing the music. Reporter Claes Andreasson, met with television composer David Vanacore, who sometimes has only a couple of days to write the score for a one-hour show.
