At Issue with Ben Merens
from Thursday, December 13, 2012 at 3:00 PM
Since the dawn of movie-making, music has been essential to the cinematic experience. From the pre-talkie days, to the epic symphonies of "The Lord of the Rings," we've connected to our films through music. In this hour, Ben and his guest discuss the role of music in the movies, how it's changed over time, and take your picks for the greatest movie music ever. Guest: Timothy Scheurer (SHOY-err), Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Shawnee State University. He's written numerous books about the history of American music, including "Music and Mythmaking in Film"
