Description

Mark Kermode's Surround Sound: The Stories of Movie Music takes readers on a lively journey through the world of film scores. It explains how a soundtrack can make you cheer, shiver, cry, or even want to punch the air, and shows the emotional bond audiences share with movie music. Award-winning critic Mark Kermode teams up with radio producer Jenny Nelson to ask the big questions: how do directors share their musical ideas with composers, and when does a score become a character in its own right? Their conversation is peppered with witty anecdotes and insightful analysis that keep the pace fast and the tone entertaining. The book celebrates the evolution of film composition, from early silent-era accompaniments to modern blockbuster orchestras. Readers gain a clear picture of why certain themes linger long after the credits roll, and they learn to listen for the hidden cues that shape every scene. Whether you are a film student, a music enthusiast, or simply love movies, this guide offers a fresh perspective that deepens your appreciation for the power of sound in storytelling.
