He has now composed over 100 scores for film and television. His scores have been performed by such symphony orchestras as the Boston Pops, Charleston Symphony, Cincinnati Symphony, and the London Symphony Orchestra, to name a few. Recently his symphonic piece "Transcontinental" was introduced for the first time by Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops. His score from "The Last Of The Mohicans" was nominated for both the British Academy Award and the Golden Globe. He recently scored Disney's live action "Underdog", Focus Features' "Balls Of Fury", Fox's "27 Dresses", and Universal's "Mummy 3, Tomb of the Dragon Emperor". Randy's hit song, "Weekend in New England", was recently featured in the smash hit film "Paul Blart, Mall Cop". He is pictured at a recent dinner hosted in his honour by BMI London.
