CONCERT MUSIC VERSUS THE MUSIC OF THE SOUND FILMS
Keywords:
concert music, film music, Copland, synthetic artsAbstract
Concert (independent) music, mostly classical, has largely and decisively influenced the emergence and development of cinematography, but, just like all the other independent arts, mostly remodelled to fit the requirements imposed by the sound film, independent music has also undergone major changes which influenced its structure, form and independence, but which became part of a superior synthetic structure from a psychological, artistic and expressive points of view.
Conceived to serve different aesthetic and dramatic principles and shaped according to other structural patterns, stylistic concepts etc., the analytic patterns successfully used to examine/study independent music can no longer be used for this “newborn” musical genre called the music of the sound film.
