Their collaboration was unprecedented, with Leone playing Morricone's music as he was filming the scene so the actors could hear it. It had to be big to fill all the empty space the movies were showing, so the composers wrote for full orchestras. Once the ability to synchronize music and sound to celluloid becomes possible in , music quickly becomes an integral aspect of the storytelling process. That device is also used by the Argentinian Lalo Schifrin in the Dirty Harry series, for which he scored four out of the five with strong emphasis on hard bebop and jazz-blues to bring the seamy side of San Francisco into view.

  • Vincent Derosa
    Vince Biography DeRosa Biography "It's true that I played in thousands of movies, but that was what we did in those days. It would be impossible today, with the current traffic situation, to play as many sessions in a day - often three and sometimes four - as we did then, when we could get anywhere is Los Angeles in half an hour. One day I got a call. I said I could come by on my lunch hour. The studio was near where I played a morning session, so I walked over at noon. On a stand was music with just two notes. They wanted me to play them strongly, so I did, then asked what else they wanted. That was it! And the recording with those two notes became a great hit!" "I learned the Mozart and Strauss, but the studio business required something different. The music was always new, never seen before; you played it and they recorded it. You never knew what you were going to get. Fortunately, I didn't have problems with that, so I became a well-known player in commercial work. Alfred Brain said, never practice on the stage, and that's what the business was like." Vince DeRosa was born in 1920 into a musical family in Kansas City. His father played clarinet and his mother was a singer. The family moved to Chicago, where Vince started horn with P. Delecce, and then later the family moved to Los Angeles. Vince studied briefly with his uncle Vincent DeRubertis (who was on staff as a horn player at Paramount Studios), and the legendary Alfred Brain (uncle of Dennis Brain, and Principal Horn at 20th Century Fox Studios), and started his professional career at the age of seventeen in the horn section at 20th Century Fox.

Fortunately, the past decade has witnessed a steady build of interest in film music scholarship thanks, in part, to annual Fconferences of Music and the Moving Image (MAMI), regular meetings of the International Musicological Society’s Music and Media Study Group (MAM), and scholarly journals such as Sound and the Moving Image, Music and the Moving Image, and the Journal of Film Music. Film music is a “neglected art” no more.1 Many music departments in colleges and universities across North America can boast at least one undergraduate film music course—a change of tides that has led to the publication of invaluable academic texts such as Roger Hickman’s Reel Music: Exploring 100 Years of Film Music (2005); Hearing the Movies (2015) by James Buhler, David Neumeyer, and Rob Deemer; and Mervyn Cooke’s A History of Film Music.2 1.

  • American Heritage Center
    UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING AMERICAN HERITAGE CENTER GUIDE TO ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY RESOURCES Child actress Mary Jane Irving with Bessie Barriscale and Ben Alexander in the 1918 silent film Heart of Rachel. Mary Jane Irving papers, American Heritage Center. Compiled by D. Claudia Thompson and Shaun A. Hayes 2009 PREFACE When the University of Wyoming began collecting the papers of national entertainment figures in the 1970s, it was one of only a handful of repositories actively engaged in the field. Business and industry, science, family history, even print literature were all recognized as legitimate fields of study while prejudice remained against mere entertainment as a source of scholarship. There are two arguments to be made against this narrow vision. In the first place, entertainment is very much an industry. It employs thousands. It requires vast capital expenditure, and it lives or dies on profit. In the second place, popular culture is more universal than any other field. Each individual’s experience is unique, but one common thread running throughout humanity is the desire to be taken out of ourselves, to share with our neighbors some story of humor or adventure. This is the basis for entertainment. The Entertainment Industry collections at the American Heritage Center focus on the twentieth century. During the twentieth century, entertainment in the United States changed radically due to advances in communications technology. The development of radio made it possible for the first time for people on both coasts to listen to a performance simultaneously. The delivery of entertainment thus became immensely cheaper and, at the same time, the fame of individual performers grew.
