If you've ever seen the movies Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Father of the Bride, Forrest Gump, Parent Trap, Back to the Future trilogy, Stuart Little, Lilo and Stitch, Polar Express, Night at the Museum, Captain America, The Avengers, or the Croods (and 100 more!) then you've heard the brilliant film music of Alan Silvestri! Behind every good movie, there is an even better music score. We talked a lot this month about if movie music is done well, you don't even notice it's there. It's job is not to be distracting, but instead help to further the storyline, emotion, and mood of the scene. Silvestri does just that and so much more. Ask your kid about their new vocab words-solo, genre, and vibrato!
Each week we studied a new piece Silvestri composed:
Main Theme from Back to the Future
Forrest Gump Suite
Believe from Polar Express
