Jerry Goldsmith Music Scoring for American Movies eBook Mauricio Dupuis
only book that has been written about the late Jerry Goldsmith. I personally consider him the greatest of composers who worked in film simplyby virtue of his staggering versatility and the rhythmic drive and intensity of his action writing. He was a composer whose style of writing was more
modernist than his more musically accessible--and more famous---contemporary John Williams who is another great favorite of mine.
Mr. Dupuis touches on the many components that made Goldsmith the staggering talent that he was. I was working on my own book about the maestro (and perhaps I still will) and upon reading this book my admiration for the man has intensified. He is the only composer whose music I
purchase indiscriminately no matter what reviews have to say about them.
I only wish the author of this work had more to say on the subject as only 168 pages is pretty scant about a composer whose work was so expansive. But, as he said, he will leave that to others. But as it is this is a very well researched and solid dissertation on one of our greatest composers. This is a book well worth having for anyone seriously interested in the creators of great music.

Jerry Goldsmith Music Scoring for American Movies eBook Mauricio Dupuis Reviews
Thanks!
Really nice overview of Goldsmith's long career in Hollywood as a composer, although not as in-depth and probing as you find in the Herrmann bio, "A Heart at Fire's Center". There is great effort to chart the hallmarks of Goldsmith's music that run across all his work, plus highlight the occasions where the score stands apart from the rest, whether due to orchestration, instrumentation or application to the film. Recommended for ardent and casual fans of Goldsmith and film scoring in general. For many Goldsmith fans there may not be surprises in terms of tracking his career, but it's illuminating to read what Dupuis feels is worthy and connections he makes among the vast body of Goldsmith's work.
