Enjoyed this a lot (not just because one of my articles is referenced). Easy to read and engrossing, will probably write a full review soonish.

"a celebratory tour d'horizon of film music history that covers an enormous range, from the popular (John Williams, Jerry Goldsmith, Hans Zimmer) to the classic (Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Bernard Herrmann, Ennio Morricone) to the bracingly avant garde (Bebe and Louis Barron, Mica Levi)"
