Review
"Music and Cinema is an exciting and genuinely interdisciplinary contribution to the growing body of work on film music. It's especially rewarding that this collection places insightful new scholars alongside acknowledged experts while it generates what promises to become an ongoing conversation between musicology and film studies." (Corey Creekmur, University of Iowa )
