Hi Matt, I quizzed my dad about this one - he has a large collection of books on films and also classical music- these being his two main interests. He has come up with a few titles which provide some information about music in silent films, I can't say how useful they will be as I have not actually seen the books. Brownlow, Kevin - The Parade's gone by. Columbus, 1968 page 337 London, Kurt - Film Music 1936 Chanan, Michael - The dream that kicks. Routledge, 1980 page 309- 318 Manveu, Roger - The film and the public. Penguin, 1955 page 50- 53 Abel, Richard (ed) - Silent film. Athlone, 1996 page 31 (more on set scores) hope this might be of help, Sarah Robinson Assistant Librarian Suffolk College Library Rope Walk Ipswich IP4 1LT -----Original Message----- From: Forum for Media Librarians and Information Professionals [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Matt Holland Sent: 15 February 2006 09:01 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Can anyone help me with this query from a student ... Dear Colleagues, Can anyone help me with this query from a student ... I am looking to find out a list of classical scores used in early silent films (in paticular Buster Keaton 1926-1930). The music used in these films was referential and I am looking to compile a list of the classical music that was commonly used in the cinema of this period. Any light you could shed on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
