Making Curriculum Pop

The Sound of Cinema is a documentary which aired recently on the BBC. Writer, composer and film music aficionado Neil Brand tells his alternative history of cinema, putting the soundtrack centre stage. The series features some of the biggest directors of past and present, including Quentin Tarantino, Alfred Hitchcock and Martin Scorsese, alongside film scores of cult and blockbuster movies like Star Wars, Inception, Hitchcock’s Psycho, and Gladiator.

It can now be found on YouTube in two parts:

Part 1: Neil Brand looks at how the classic orchestral film score emerged in the 1930s. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNRZFZEyTLI
