The synthesis of image and sound tells moving stories. Emmy Award-winning filmmaker and journalist Matt Schrader's Score: A Film Music Documentary is an introduction to the world of the film score, a unique music genre that plays a vital role in the cinematic experience, featuring interviews with more than 40 composers including Hans Zimmer, Danny Elfman, and David Arnold.
