When Music Takes Over in Film, Hardback Book

When Music Takes Over in Film Hardback

Edited by Anna K. Windisch, Claus Tieber, Phil Powrie

Part of the Palgrave Studies in Audio-Visual Culture series

Hardback

Description

This open access collection deals with musical moments in film as one of the most pivotal and compelling issues of current film music research.

Musical moments as defined by Amy Herzog occur when a musical number inverts the normal relationship between the image track and the soundtrack in a film in such a way that what we see is determined by what we hear.

As one potential approach, this definition provokes a variety of perspectives to investigate the disruptive potential of these moments and numbers as a creative device in the production of audiovisual narratives.

In this sense, the book responds to a need for an anthology that introduces students as well as scholars of cinema, musicology, media studies and cultural studies more broadly, to recent discourses in film music scholarship.

The volume includes contributions by early career researchers as well as by established experts in the fields of musicology, film studies, media studies, and cultural studies, promoting cross-disciplinary collaboration in film music research.
