Movie Soundtrack
Description
Movie soundtracks encompass a wide range of musical styles and compositions created specifically to accompany and enhance the narrative of films. They can include orchestral scores, popular songs, and original compositions tailored to the film's mood and themes.
History
The concept of movie soundtracks began with the advent of sound in cinema during the late 1920s. Initially, live music accompanied silent films, but with the introduction of synchronized sound, original scores became an integral part of filmmaking. Over the decades, soundtracks have evolved to include a mix of instrumental scores and popular music, often serving as a marketing tool for films.
