Music at the Movies

1. Introduction

During the 20th and 21st centuries some stunning film scores were composed. While in previous years you have learned about classical music composers during this semester you are going to dive into the world of modern classical music. As you will appreciate, the masterful scores perfectly complement the story and mood from the big screen, so you may like to discuss with your parents whether you want to watch some of the movies showcased here. However, these are also chosen for their musical merit and integrity in the way they tell a story.

When making a choice whether to watch a movie the Australian Council on Children and the Media Know Before You Go Movie Reviews are a good resource to consider.
