Description

Explore the deep connection between sound and cinema in Music in the Western: Notes from the Frontier. Part of the Routledge Music and Screen Media Series, this collection brings together insights from film studies scholars and musicologists to examine the essential elements of western film scores. This book looks at how music functions within narrative systems and individual films. It investigates the history and generic conventions that define the genre. Readers will find detailed analysis on how scores contribute to the ideological themes of the Hollywood western, including the construction of gender, sexuality, race, and ethnicity. By studying the geographic settings and the prototypical male protagonists that define this uniquely American genre, these essays provide a clear view of how core American values are expressed through music. It is a necessary resource for those studying the relationship between filmic texts and their auditory landscapes.
