I think ACA should win, but ITH will probably win.

Passing Strange will probably win, they'll want to give something to Stew and Heidi, since ITH will probably take score.
It's a shame, because there is no question in my mind that Tunick should win. This will be the 2nd straight year he'll be screwed out of winning for nominators not viewing orchestrations as its own category, and really what orchestrations are and what makes great orchestrations (if they did, there's no way Shiek would have beaten Tunick last year)

There's only one who would deserve it and that's Tunick, no doubt. The score would be rather weak without his magical touch. And thanks to Tunick, it's overall nice to repeatedly listen to.
Passing Strange winning would be a big fat joke. But who knows...

Posted: 6/14/08 at 5:34pmSunday In The Park With George. Although A Catered Affair could be a dark horse. I feel ITH and Passing Strange aren't really great orchestral shows, they just have a great score.
