The bibliography
is organized
in thefollowing
sections:
I. GeneralTheory andAesthetics
II. Technology
A. General
B. History-TheComingofSound

Althoughthesecategories are by no meansmutually exclusive,it is hoped
thattheywillprovidethe readerwiththe clearestaccessto information.
Theoretical andtechnologicalessayspertaining primarilytofilm musicwillbe
foundin SectionIII, whilethosetreating thesoundtrack in generalwillbe
foundin SectionsI and II respectively. Mixed-category essayswhichplace
filmsoundpracticein theoretical contexts-such as theexchange in Screen
Writer(1945)betweenRanaldMacDougallandArchOboler,as wellas Jean-
Louis Comolli'sworkin Cahiersdu cinima-are locatedin the Theory
section;essayswhoseemphasis on thetechnical or pragmatic outweigh their
theoretical are in SectionII.

The entrieson theoryand aesthetics are as completeas possible.The
bibliography on technological
and historicaltopicsis necessarily
moreselec-
tive.The bibliography providessomereferences to interviewswithsound
technicians, directors,
and composers,as well as soundtrack analysesof
particularfilms;hereI have triedto choosearticleswhosemethods, em-
phases,and implications transcend theirprofessed specificsubjectmatter.
Likewise,SectionsI and IIB containa number ofsampletimoignages from
theearlysoundperiod,thoughI haveexcludeditemswhichdeal solelywith
musicforsilentfilms.
