Music. #Instrumental, #Diegetic, #Non-Diegetic, #Acapella, whatever your poison, film has it. Scripted, not blurred. With a violin on top.

There are a variety of types of music, genres, paces… there are scores of instruments as well (sorry, I had to), but today we will be looking at its place in film. #Music is a character, a living breathing character. It motivates, inspires, uplifts and connects with the audience. It adds to the storyline and plot and helps to move it forward . Music is an integral part of any production. Sometimes it is meant to move us, other times groove us.

#Science writer #PhilipBall, author of “The Music Instinct”, says “Our response to certain kinds of noise is something so profound in us that we can’t switch it off. Film #Composers know that and use it to shortcut the logical part of our brain and get straight to the emotional centres.” (The Chant)

The strength of this piece is clear and concise in the first note.

The struggles and strengths of a nation thousands of years old, in just under 4 minutes.

“You can’t write a song out of thin air you have to feel and know what you are writing about.” – #IrvingBerlin

Sometimes,  self-expression needs the aid of song to be communicated properly. That is why in musicals characters suddenly start singing about their highs, lows and in between. A character will break into song when words, a speech, just won’t do.
