>In this wonderful study of music scoring for 
>film, Gregg Redner (an accomplished musicologist 
>in his own right) turns to the philosopher 
>Gilles Deleuze to seek a way in which to talk 
>about music as part of the mise-en-scène. Up 
>until now there have been two fundamental and 
>somewhat opposing approaches to film scoring  
>the one emanating from musicologists, the other 
>from specialists in film studies. Neither seemed 
>to satisfy the needs of the other and certainly 
>neither was able to really fully explain what 
>happens to music in film nor, indeed, what music 
>causes to happen within film. Redner sets out to 
>find a way of bridging these two opposing 
>approaches by investigating the materiality of 
>music and showing how its presence is a 
>significant as other presences within the image. 
>In so doing, he offers us a new and fresh way to 
>understand film music. This most readable of 
>books is written with intellectual grace and 
>scholarly elegance; the analyses of selected 
>films will incite the reader to revisit them 
>with a new eye and ear. All six films become 
>marvellously refreshed through this most scintillating of studies.
