Summary: The terrific book shows the work of 4 great film composers.
Comment: Burt's approach is for both musician and non-musician, so the book is ideal for composers and for directors and producers. There is a general descriptive text explaining what film music should do, and there is technical analysis of melody, harmony, counterpoint and orchestration of famous film/film music excerpts.Burt discusses drama and the importance of the many levels of a meaning in a scene, and shows how some of the greats of Hollywood film music accompanied (or left silent) important parts of well known films.This book is excellent for general film buffs and for somebody seriously interested in film scoring technique.
