Film music

Some people say that the best film music is the one you don't even notice during a movie, but I have to say I like to actually hear the music, as some of the pieces are really well-matched and give a scene a whole new meaning. I remeber to this day the scene from The Fountain when Tomas finally found the tree and this beautiful music was playing in the background:

It is called Death is the road to awe and is composed by Hans Zimmer, a German film composer. He has recieved four Grammy Awards, two Golden Globes and an Academy Award. He made music for such films as Gladiator, Inception, The Lion King, The Dark Knight and many many more. He also worked on the film Moonlightning (Fucha) written ad directed by Jerzy Skolimowski.


 There are a lot of other film composers that are worth knowing, some of them as well-known as for example Ennio Morricone and others who aren't so recognized but still very talented.

I think we should all appreciate film music and its makers because I can't even imagine watching a movie without it. It can't be easy composing something that matches so perfectly the images played on screen and gives them such unique atmosphere.
