Jaws, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park… Would these movies be quite as iconic without their incredible scores? Journalist, broadcaster and ultimate film authority, Mark Kermode, alongside writer and expert audio producer Jenny Nelson, are better placed than anyone to explore this question. Co-authors of Surround Sound: The Stories of Movie Music, they’ll discuss their shared passion for the craft of making music for movies and a composer’s ability to elevate a film from ‘great’ to ‘epic’.
