Behind the scenes of “Searching”
Film director/writer Tara Grover Smith wrote a poem and was inspired to write a melody for it. She reached out to Mim to collaborate and flesh out her song idea more. After asking Tara what musical styles and influences Tara heard in her head, Mim wrote a chorus, a bridge and created an arrangement based on those music styles and influences. Tara was originally supposed to sing, but she asked Mim to do it. Mim was still regaining stamina while learning to manage Long Covid, which had been managing for two years. Eventually, she retrained her voice within the limitations of Long Covid she had at the time. The end result is this song, “Searching.”

Coffee Breakfast Compilation, Mim Paquin, Composer (2021)
Mim’s composer album is front-loaded featuring two original score soundtracks: Two Kisses (2020) and The Observer (2004). It ends strong with some playful and ambitious acoustic and digital compositions and themes in a variety of styles of music—from jazz, R&B, quirky romcom indie, bumbling detective music, buddy cop themes, Celtic mountain warrior vocal, drums and horns, to a vocal piece written in the style of Frank Sinatra, performed entirely by Mim herself (vocal soundalike; in the spirit of). A true compilation demonstrating some of Mim’s compositional abilities.

Vocal Art Song Compositions
"Peace & Love (for Ukraine)" vocalise by Mim Paquin
Mim composed and produced in March 2022. Featuring soprano Mim Paquin and a virtual choir.
“Peace & Love (for Ukraine)” is a meditative vocalise for soloist and choir with piano, flute, and string accompanyment.
Message:
Praying for the war in Europe to end.
Praying for all Ukrainians.
Praying for Russians who do not even know why they are fighting, to put down their weapons for peace, and for those Russians crying in their own country for peace in Ukraine.
Influenced by the National Anthem of Ukraine and Prokofiev’s mezzo cantata for the film Alexander Nevsky, titled “The Field of the Dead.”
