Call for Reviews and Articles: Journal of Film Music

Dear colleagues,

The Journal of Film Music is a forum for the musicological study of film from the standpoint
of dramatic musical art. The analytical tools and methodologies of historical, systematic,
cognitive, and ethnomusicology all are relevant and essential to this study, which seeks to
both document and illuminate film practice through source studies, analysis, theory, and
criticism.

We are currently seeking reviews of the following books:

Jack Curtis Dubowsky. Composing for Silent Film. 2024.
Daniel White. The Music of Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings. 2024.
Stephen Lee Naish, Music and Sound in the Films of Dennis Hopper. 2024.
Holly Rogers, Joana Freitas, and João Francisco Porfírio, eds. YouTube and Music.
2024.
Anna K. Windisch, Claus Tieber, and Phil Powrie, eds. When Music Takes Over Film. 2023.
Franco Sciannameo, ed. Italian Film Music, 1950s-1970s. 2023.
Michael Baumgartner. Metafilm Music in Jean-Luc Godard’s Cinema. 2022.
Michael Lee. Music in the Horror Films of Val Lewton. 2022.

If you are interested in the above titles or would like to discuss other possibilities,
please write to emars094@gmail.com.

If the above books do not fit your expertise, we would still like to hear from you! We
invite potential reviewers to submit information on their expertise, and recent authors to
submit requests for their monographs to be reviewed. In addition, proposals for reviews of
screen-music or -sound concerts/albums, screenings/documentaries, or conferences will be
considered as well.

The journal is also interested in receiving further article submissions (max. 8000 words).
Visit the Journal of Film Music website for more information.

All the best,
