Cinema Changes: Incorporations of Jazz in the Film Soundtrack
, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, xxvi + 334 pages, Size:210 x 260 mm, Illustrations:35 b/w, 26 musical examples, Language: English. ISBN 9782503584478.
Summary Cinema is the form of entertainment that can be, above all, identified with the twentieth century. It gradually replaced theatre as a popular form of performed storytelling, and replaced opera too as the new "multimedia" art form, soon incorporating music as one of cinema's privileged means to co-tell stories. Speaking of music, jazz was as sensational a twentieth-century novelty as cinema was. The two soon teamed up, and jazz, with its various incarnations and styles, has accompanied the moving images and the cinematic narratives throughout the decades. It was inevitable that these two iconic art/entertainment forms, jazz and cinema, should meet, blend, cooperate, and have a reciprocal influence. While the early film music was mostly symphonic and inspired by the late-romantic nineteenth-century idiom, jazz and Afro-American music - in various form and with diverse and changing racial/social connotations - appeared onscreen even before the landmark film The Jazz Singer (1927), which officially launched the sound era. This collection of essays seeks to study the long-standing relationship between jazz and cinema, from the silent era to the contemporary sound cinema, on an international level.

Italian Film Music, 1950s-1970s. Between Tradition, Innovation, and Internationalisation
, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 454 pages, Size:210 x 270 mm, Illustrations:32 b/w, 48 musical examples, Language(s):English, Italian. ISBN 9782503608464.
Summary The music heard in Italian cinema along the arch of the three decades highlighted in this book, has not only made history but has become an unspoken of patrimony of humanity. This book provides a platform to build a lasting tribute to those composers who were, indeed, the ?sounding? protagonists of hundreds of films - from Fellini's La dolce vita to Tornatore's Cinema Paradiso to a myriad of cultural documentaries and productions made for cinema and television. The book is divided into three parts comprising essays on the music of Nino Rota, lesser-known composers yet important on the national circuit like Carpi, Gervasio, Vlad, and Chailly, and four essays dedicated to the towering figure of Ennio Morricone whose legacy will continue to hover over Italian cinema of the 50s-70s for many decades to come. An introductory essay, 17 chapters annotated and provided with musical examples, tables, and iconographic material written by internationally known academics specialised in Italian film music; bibliographies and abstracts following each essay; biographies of the contributing authors; and an index organized by names and subjects, make this volume an indispensable research tool free of geopolitical barriers and ideological constrains in the bourgeoning field of Film Music.

[Photographie originale] Yves Montand et Alain Resnais sur le tournage du film "La guerre est finie" (1966) photographiés par Jean-Michel Folon
1966 aucune reliure 25 x 19 cm (image et feuille). Tirage gélatino-argentique d'époque (1965, année du tournage du film) sur papier agfa sans autre mention qu'un "F" suivi d'un numéro.
Nous pouvons assurer avec certitude que cette photographie est de Folon (qui n'a apposé son cachet qu'à de très rares tirages) puisque nous en avons vu le négatif et la planche contact. Le cliché est pris lors du tournage de la scène d'extérieur qui figure vers la minute 79 du film. Il est à noter que Folon est cité lors d'un dialogue du film, que nous restranscrivons ici : "On prépare un livre sur les villes, sur toutes les villes du monde... enfin, sur la manière dont la ville parle avec ses habitants et comment les gens dans la rue lui répondent... comment ça devient un langage... c'est compliqué à dire, mais en images c'est tout simple... Tu verras : on prend des photos des villes et on mélange avec des dessins de Folon et Topor. C'est moi qui ai fait la maquettte avec Agnès. Bill s'en va au Brésil, alors on fait tout de suite le premier choix des photos avant son départ" (scène vers 41'30''). Des tirages photographiques de lui apparaissent également dans le film (voir référence 3483). Resnais avait montré en 1965 à Jogre Semprun, l'auteur du scénario, des dessins de Folon figurant des flèches, et Semprun avait intégré Folon dans le scénario (cf. sa préface à "Folon, aquarelles, gravures et affiches", 1982). Tirage rare et cliché probablement inconnu. Bel état. Très bon
