[From back cover] SILENCE may be golden, but the sort of silence that hangs over a room whilst an amateur movie flickers on the screen is just tinny. You need the additional dimension of music to give your films depth and an atmosphere of completeness. You need music that will fit the changing mood of the pictures and you need a surprising variety and amount of it. Frederick Rawlings, a connoisseur and collector of gramophone records makes it in this book easy for you to find whatever you may need - music bright or tragic, eccentric or tempestuous, pastoral or foreboding, mysterious or desolate, ethical or sordid ? rustic themes, oriental themes, gypsy themes, cowboy themes ? vehicle sounds, water sounds and the sounds of trades? motifs for birthdays, for the circus, for Christmas ? the voices of birds and the drums of marching armies. C. A. Lejeune, the famous film critic, who in her foreword regrets that this book was not available in the days when she struggled with the problems of amateur production, rightly says ?there is plenty here to fill the immediate needs of the average amateur film or play maker?.
