Summary: Again and again...
Review: I wrote the above review over 3 years ago, and I think I've re-read this book as many times since then. I *still* can't get enough of it.

Summary: Attention: Film-music lovers !
Review: This is an absolutely fantastic chronology of film music through the ages... from the silent era to the "John Williams" era to today.This book makes for entertaining and informative reading with quotes from so many in-the-industry sources that your head will spin!It's the most up-to-date reference I've found so far on film-scoring techniques and the problems historically associated with this genre.I'd even recommend it to film-goers with a just a passing interest in music as well
