Kevin Donnelly emphasizes the manipulative and ephemeral character of film music. He discusses not only traditional orchestral film music but also film music's colonization of television and the relation of pop music and film. \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFilm and Television Music\u003c\/i\u003echallenges accepted notions of film music as restricted to film by looking at its use in television and its influence in the world of pop music. It questions traditional assumptions about \"valued\" film music, either from \"name\" composers or from the golden era of classical Hollywood. \u003cbr\u003eFocusing on topics as diverse as horror, pop music in film, ethnic signposting, television drama, and the soundtrack without a film, this original study introduces a range of new perspectives on one of the most complex and fascinating aspects of filmmaking.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kevin Donnelly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1844570266\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781844570263\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/26\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.23h x 6.83w x 0.54d","brand":"Kevin Donnelly","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43943534264575,"sku":"9781844570263","price":46.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_099d8c49-f371-46f3-a203-726ef3580f2a.jpg?v=1681498640","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-spectre-of-sound-kevin-donnelly-9781844570263","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
