Film Music

Abstract

IT is characteristic of our times that, while the abstract and practical aspects of transient political trends are over-documented in book form, the corresponding aspects of such permanently revolutionary factors in everyday life as broadcasting and the sound film are, on the whole, treated only in an ephemeral literature of specialized circles.

Film Music:

a Summary of the Characteristic Features of its History, Aesthetics, Technique; and possible Developments. By Kurt London. Translated Eric S. Bensinger. Pp. 280 + 28 plates. (London: Faber and Faber, Ltd., 1936.) 12s. 6d. net.
