fugamundi x Ahmet Kenan Bilgiç Jazz Listening Club: From Script to Screen: The Journey of Film Music
Moderator: Doğukan Şayan
Guest: Ahmet Kenan Bilgiç
On International Jazz Day, we explore the world where notes meet frames and stories are rewritten through sound. For the 15th session of the Jazz Listening Club, hosted by Akbank Sanat and fugamundi, we dive into the intersection of cinema and jazz.
Theme: From Script to Screen: The Journey of Film Music
How does music shift the soul of a script? How does a scene transform when it finds its true resonance? We will explore how a composer guides the frame and how that elusive "cinematic" feeling is meticulously constructed.
Event Flow
- Part One: We will listen to tracks selected from cinema history and the depths of jazz, discussing the bond between sound and scene.
- Part Two: The floor is yours. We will randomly select and listen to tracks recommended by the audience that resonate with the theme.
