Composing for Silent Film offers insight information and techniques for contemporary composition arrangement and live score performance for period silent film. A specialized music composition guide this book complements existing film scoring and contemporary music composition texts. This book helps today’s composers better understand and correctly interpret period silent film and to create and perform live scores that align with films’ original intentions so that audiences notice and grasp fine points of the original film. Composing for Silent Film analyzes period silent film and its conventions – from Delsarte acting gestures to period fascinations and subtexts. As a practical composition text it weighs varying approaches including improvisation through-scoring mickey-mousing handling dialogue and dividing roles amongst players. It steers composers towards informed understanding of silent film and encourages them to deploy contemporary styles and techniques in exciting ways. For clarity and concision examples are limited to nine canonical silents: Metropolis Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde The Mark of Zorro Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans The Black Pirate Nosferatu The Phantom Carriage Daisy Doodad’s Dial and The Golem.|Composing for Silent Film | Music
