Listening to Great Film Music Composers  

With the coming of the sound film, a series of outstanding film music composers made a lasting contribution to both the cinema and music worlds. We’ll screen films and excerpts while listening to and discussing the music composed by giants such as Bernard Herrmann, Elmer Bernstein, David Raksin, Henry Mancini, Max Steiner, Alex North, Maurice Jarre, Jerry Goldsmith, and John Barry. We’ll consider how music forms a vital part of film art, whether in symphonic, jazz or other musical styles. Films and excerpts include Citizen Kane, Vertigo, Some Came Running, Touch of Evil, Laura, Toute la Memoire du Monde, The Big Sleep, Chinatown, Goldfinger, Dances with Wolves, and other films. Limit: 30 Larry Crawford is an OLLI member, and film and music buff
