Sonatas, Screams, and Silence: Music and Sound in the Films of Ingmar Bergman is the first musical examination of Bergmanâs style as an auteur filmmaker. It provides a comprehensive examination of all three aspects (music, sound effects, and voice) of Bergmanâs signature soundtrack-style. Through examinations of Bergmanâs biographical links to music, the role of music, sound effects, silence, and voice, and Bergmanâs working methods with sound technicians, mixers, and editors, this book argues that Bergmanâs soundtracks are as superbly developed as his psychological narratives and breathtaking cinematography. Interdisciplinary in nature, this book bridges the fields of music, sound, and film.
