As any admirer of entertainment can attest to, whether they are aware of it or not, the music in virtually every television program and film success is tied directly to the music score written and directed by the Composer.

Even in the earliest days of entertainment dating back centuries, leading to the silent films of the early twentieth century, on the stage in live performances, the music, often played live in a theatre was a critical element to setting the tone of the movie. Without the music of the talented Composer, entertainment would be a wispy shadow of itself.
