Beyond the Soundtrack - Representing Music in Cinema - Goldmark, Kramer & Leppert
Beyond the Soundtrack -
Representing Music in Cinema
by Goldmark, Kramer & Leppert
A Groundbreaking collection of essays by a
group of distinguished musicologists and
film scholars giving long-overdue
recognition to music as equal to the image
in shaping the film experience. Refuting the
idea that music serves merely as a prop for
narrative, these essays demonstrate that
music is a fully imagined and active power
in the worlds of film. Even where films cast it
in a supporting role - and many more give it
much more prominence - music makes an
independent contribution.

European Film Music - Miguel Mera & David Burnand
European Film Music
by Miguel Mera & David Burnand
A volume that redresses the balance by
exploring specific European filmic texts,
composers and approaches to film scoring
that have hitherto been neglected. Films
involving British, French, German, Greek,
Irish, Italian, Polish and Spanish composers
are considered in detail.
Important issues that permeate all the essays
involve the working relationship of composer
and director, the dialectic between the
diegetic and the non-diegetic uses of music
in films, the music-image synergism and the
levels of realism that are created by the
audio-visual mix.
