The Journal of Film Music (ISSN: 1087-7142), provides an interdisciplinary
forum for scholars in music, film and other disciplines who share a common
interest in this vital new area of scholarly inquiry. Though now
represented in mainstream journals in music, film, the media, and mass
communication, scholarly writing on film music is currently dispersed
across many publications throughout the world. By providing a scholarly
journal devoted to the subject, the interdisciplinary work of film music
studies can flourish. Contributions encompassing all aspects of film
music history, analysis, theory, and criticism are welcome. The website of
the Journal can be found at www.ifms-jfm.org.
