Music in movies can serve as the pulse of a film. The composer has to somehow, capture the essence of the movie in her/his compositions. Of course, the style of musics changes depending on the era or specific needs of the film.
Listen the soundtracks of the movies I have provided below. You are not required to listen to the whole thing but just enough for you to complete this assignment.
Write about the music in the movies you are hearing. Here are some questions to consider:
How has the composer used the music to create the identity of the movie?
What instruments do you think you hear?
How has the music form the different time periods I have proved changed? Why?
Would the movie be as effective without the music? Why or why not?
