Program Description

Event Details

Original Music is used to heighten the comedic and dramatic plots and images of films. One could say that music plays second fiddle to a film. And yet, many scores can stand on their own or have been converted into celebrated classical works which have become popular in today’s concert repertory.

Jeffrey Engel will detail the early sporadic use of music in films and explain how it developed into the full symphonic score. Mr. Engel will also play recorded excerpts by several notable film score composers.
