Tune
s from the movie -
Musical, melodrama, farce
and comedy - well known
film genres have through
the last 70 years
produced film songs, that
deserve to be remembered,
played and sung. Many of
which have become beloved
evergreens. Toner fra
filmen contains 100 songs
that explain why. Tunes
from the movie - Toner
fra filmen is the first
Danish song book, that
concentrates on songs
written directly to the
film medium - from 1932
until 2002. From swing
music to a sailor's
waltz, from rock'n'roll
to rap music, and the
publication contains 100
compositions and lyrics
and with that the answer
to why a specific film
song book is relevant.
The answer is quality and
diversity.Toner fra
filmen is a song book
that is supposed to
strengthen the joy of
singing and the memory of
everyone interested in
songs and films.
Predictable catchy tunes
by eg. Sven Gyldmark
standing side by side
with surprises that have
almost been forgotten by
most but deserve a
renaissance. Toner fra
filmen is released now as
the quality in the
national film production
makes people walk away
from the television and
into the darkness of the
movie theatre to laugh
and cry. Back at the
television screen we
enjoy the old Danish
movies that make us wish
to refresh the film
songs. Most of us
seldomly remember more
than the refrain, and
then the need to look at
the score arises. The
songs chosen to Toner fra
filmen has of course been
an integrated part of the
movies' set up, but they
can manage on their own.
There are a lot of love
songs, but there are also
songs for every taste and
temperament, nice as well
as sexy, short, long,
poetic etc etc. The book
makes you want to sing
and play and is at the
same time a piece of
Danish cultural
history.
