Komponieren für Film und Fernsehen

Combining theory with practice, this book offers a theory of composition which is ground-breaking, far beyond the topic of 'film'. Since 1980, composing has generally meant more than the mere logical development with the traditional materials space, time and sound: Music rather is about associative composing, the integration of entertaining, serious, world and jazz music, even with the aid of the latest studio technology. The use of these components for the development of film music is described by the author in his book, providing practical tips, such as concerning questions of music and film editing, synchronization of images and music, mixing, sound sampling as well as everyday problems such as studio rent and fees.
