So this weekend I found myself back at the V&A, not to check out an exhibition, but instead to enjoy an evening of iconic and classic film scores.
Why was their an orchestra performing in the V&A? Well it's all part of the much talked about Hollywood costume exhibition. So whilst we sprawled ourselves out on the mosaic floor in the Raphael gallery, a string quartet serenaded us with the themes from Gone With the Wind through to Psycho.
It's a shame how so many of us take film music for granted. Imagine watching Jaws without the opening score? Or watching an epic battle scene without a musical note? I know I'll appreciate film scores more!
