ISBN: 9783039115068 / Angielski / Miękka / 474 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The author s approach is analytical, focusing on modality and balancing up-to-date concepts and methods of...

Nino Rota, Federico Fellini, and the Making of an Italian Cinematic Folk Opera Amarcord
ISBN: 9780773408081 / Angielski / Miękka / 114 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Federico Fellini entered the pantheon of 20th-Century artists for his path-breaking films like, La dolce vita (1960) and Otto e mezzo (1963).

That celebration of youth and memory transcends all barriers of ethnic origin and national belonging by simply appealing to human commonalities. Similarly, Nino Rota's music, an integral part of this film, eludes cultural boundaries by blending learned and popular musical styles - as in a folk-opera in which stories or episodes are expressed through song and dance representative...

The Oxford Handbook of Film Music Studies charts that interdisciplinary activity in its...
